I actually believe now the best way to counter gay-marriage propaganda and the push...is to advocate polygamy, marriage between cousins, and under-age marriage without parental consent (down to 16).
In this game of gay-marriage poker...we might as well double up on the ante and really make this as big an affair as possible....one giant marriage change for the nation...marriage for just about anyone, anywhere, for any purpose, with no constraints. Once you push this agenda...the soccer mom’s suddenly wake up and you see forty percent of the support for gay marriage dry up real quick. This is especially true for those with 16-year old daughters who might suddenly show up and announce their marriage while Uncle Jimmy is trying to marry his goofy male lover of six weeks.
Common sense would suddenly overflow as you made a number of implications as part of the overall deal.

Okay, I brought this subject up to my Bride and now I need some help from you folks.
For taking the swelling down, what works best, the cold pack or the raw steak.
Also, will I be able to see out of that eye by morning?
So far, she’s not warming up to the idea. ;>)
Here is one major reason why society is obliged to outlaw polygamy - the eventual result of inbreeding and a restricted gene pool is extinction of the species.

Scientists: Incest Doomed European Royal Dynasty
The powerful Habsburg dynasty that ruled Spain for nearly 200 years came to an abrupt end in 1700 with the death of King Charles II, who left no heirs to the throne.
The termination of that royal lineage may be the result of frequent inbreeding of the line, which may have left Charles II ill and infertile, a new study suggests.
—snip—
Records show that the Spanish Habsburg kings frequently engaged in consanguineous marriage (or marriage between biological relatives); nine of the 11 marriages that occurred over the dynasty’s 200-year reign were consanguineous, with two uncle-niece marriages and one first-cousin marriage.
It had been suggested that this high degree of inbreeding led to the eventual extinction of the line when the “physically disabled, mentally retarded and disfigured” Charles II died after two childless marriages, the authors wrote. But this idea had not before been examined from a genetic perspective

Lie to girls.
Theirs or ours?
Hmm... I wonder - If I had two or more husbands could I get at least one of them to take the dang garbage out? LOL...

Why stop at polygamy? If a man wants to marry a dog, pig, or horse, why should we deprive him of his happiness? Who are we to judge?
What a great country!!!
The same arguments being advanced in US courts to legalize gay marriage could easily be used to legalize polygamy or even child marriage. These arguments are bolstered by polygamy and child marriage being part of some religions notably Islam.
Coming to a state near you.
The concept of gay marriage is a Trojan Horse, a wedge which will invalidate the concept of a one man, one woman marriage sanctioned by the state.
Once gay marriage is accepted, there will be NO legal means to not allow polygamy,or ANY other type of marriage arrangement, because there no longer would exist a legal defintion of marriage.
That is why gay marriage has to fought. It is intrinsically evil, dishonest, and false. It would be a cancer on society and the family. Once the family is eroded in society, the society falls.
Anyone who wants to indulge in polygamy should watch “Big Love” on HBO. It’s enough to make you want to blow your brains out.
Because of the godlessness, it will continue to get worse....that’s a given.
Actually I think the reverse was true - in a frontier society women are a premium because of death in childbirth. I have several male ancestors who outlived two or more wives in a 19th century farm life setting.
Polygamy will be legalized when some bi-sexual sues to marry both his girlfriend and his boyfriend, and his appeal reaches the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Um, I don't see the connection. The Hapsburgs were monogamous (aside from the various courtesans, who are irrelevant to the question of the genetics of the recognized heirs).
I really don’t see the legal rationale to outlaw polygamy. The state doesn’t regulate whom you live with, whom you sleep with, or whom you raise kids with. The state can recognize only one marriage per person at a time, but how can it stop people from shacking up, in whatever permutation floats their boat?
The state recognizes one marriage to a customer; the others are, to the mind of those engaging in them, “in the eyes of God.” We might think that’s weird, or wrong, or deranged, but what business is it of the government’s?
This is not to say that polygamists shouldn’t be pursued and prosecuted for all of the offenses that usually accompany polygamy — child brides, welfare fraud, and various forms of harassment and coercion; possibly child neglect and/or endangerment for all the young boys who are shuffled off so that the old men can have first pick of the young girls.
One hears about the tragedy of the lack of responsible parenthood, with some of the inner cities Black community- both in America and Canada. The results are not encouraging. The same in a lesser sense with other ethnic groups. Once more the taxpayer foots the bill.
All this is really, despite pious statements from the likes of the author of this piece, is to smash the structure of the family. For every blurb in Canada about smiling satisfied women, each carrying out their tasks for a middle-aged man, does not clarify the fact that:
He cannot earn enough to keep them. Including the children.
Does he care? That is a big horse laugh. Why these "human rights johnnies" shill for this, is beyond me.
“Just wait until our women start demanding a harem of husbands, it’ll stop then.”
Why? Since the whole argument for legalizing polygamy is “consenting adults” as long as 2 or more men willingly and knowlingly agree to be husbands to one woman, what would be the legal argument against it?
I’m not saying I want this but once our society and courts became stupid and immoral enough to start redefining marriage from one man/one woman in the 1st place, perhaps our nation deserves polygamy/polygyny/polyandry/polyamory and all the headaches that come with it for punishment. Kinda like when the people of Israel demanded a king that got Saul(I Samuel Chapters 8-10) and look how well that turned out for them.
Why stop there?
Why not make everyone in the world all married to each other.
There. I have 8 billion marriage partners. Everyone in the world can write a check on my bank acoount. And I can write a check on their accounts.
We will have then achieved complete peace, unity, and harmony. What could go wrong?
