Ok, I'll treat them on a first come, first serve basis.

Do you like Star Wars?
Yes, but I'm no star wars nerd. I only saw my first starwars movie (completely) a few months ago. But then I did watch all of them at the same time, from episode one to six. I think the fights in episode 1-3 are much better then the ones in episode 4-6. Sure, special effects were not as big as they are now, but that's no excuse for having really lame fights.

Did you vote for that extremist party that should be in power in Belgium?
No I didn't. It's sad though that they are the only party that stands for some of the things (conservative) I stand for.

Does your wife play video games?
Yes she does. However ... she mainly plays online flash games. She has expressed the desire for us to get a Wii, but right now our budget doesn't allow for it. We just bought a new car, so ... something's gotta give. (I'll be making a blog later on my new ride later)
This one is a touchy question, based on my knowledge that you are very religious. To clarify my intent, I am not religious, I'm just curious. What do you think of others who believe in a different god(s) than you?
I can sum that up quite easily: We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may. (article of faith 11)
Craziest thing that has happened to you?
I honestly couldn't tell you. I can't think of anything crazy enough for it to be worth mentioning.

What are your views on the practice of polygamy?
My views are the same as my religions. First off, let me clarify something. The church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints does not at this time practice polygamy. Any person that does is excommunicated. There are people that call themselves mormons and practice polygamy, but they are not members of our church.
Now then, my views. I think that if seen in the right spirit, that it is a good thing. Now then, what's the right spirit? Let's look back in history. In the old testament we read that Abraham and Moses had more then one wife, and they were the Lord's prophets, so we must assume that at that time, polygamy was a good thing. Later on we find that the practice of polygamy is discontinued. So where the change? The rule of thumb is found in the book of Mormon, another book book of scripture that testifies of Jesus Christ. Writen by people in the ancient americas between 600 BC and 420 AD. One of the prophets, called Jacob, wrote the following, which might clarify it more:
Jacob 2:27-30
27 Wherefore, my brethren, hear me, and hearken to the word of the Lord: For there shall not any man among you have save it be one wife; and concubines he shall have none;
28 For I, the Lord God, delight in the chastity of women. And whoredoms are an abomination before me; thus saith the Lord of Hosts.
29 Wherefore, this people shall keep my commandments, saith the Lord of Hosts, or cursed be the land for their sakes.
30 For if I will, saith the Lord of Hosts, raise up seed unto me, I will command my people; otherwise they shall hearken unto these things.
Polygamy was practised by some of the members of the church, in the 1800s. However, very few people actually did and could. You see, you had to be able to support someone before you could marry them. You had to treat them equally as well. If 5% of all male members of the church ever practiced polygamy, it'll have been a lot.
I personally would have a hard time having more then one wife, and have no desire to do so.
