Polygamy WAS legal in the USA until 1862, and that ban was upheld in the 1879 court case Reynolds v. United States stating "laws are made for the government of actions, and while they cannot interfere with mere religious belief and opinions, they may with practices."

As I have said before, the government should get out of the business of marriage.
