So almost 60% supposedly are fine with same-sex marriage, but 83% disapprove of polygamy? Huh?

I’m guessing that incest is next on the agenda.

When I asked “why 2” I was pelted with stones.

Next up — a petition to marry one’s sibling, mother, father, or any combination thereof.

Since same-sex couples cannot procreate naturally all incest taboos are rendered moot.

“Rick Santorum said polygamy, among other things, would be allowed if bans on sodomy were struck down by the Supreme Court. “

Well of course he was right. Once marriage between a man and a woman is deemed to be just one of many types of marriage; why would not multiple marriages be legal?
On what grounds could it be opposed?

A common thought is that polygamy oppresses women, which from what I've seen it usually does in varying degress.

I think the big push will come from the polyamory crowd, women wanting two hubbies and maybe even a lesbian thrown in for good measure.

“Not quite. The Utah decision does not recognize, in Santorum’s words, a “right to polygamy.” The judge said the right to not be discriminated against under the First and Fourteenth amendments applies to the plaintiffs.

The family of Kody Brown, subject of the TLC reality show Sister Wives, says it is polygamist because it belongs to a fundamentalist Mormon church. The Browns sued Utah in 2011, arguing that the anti-polygamy law violated their right to privacy based on the Lawrence decision. Bigamy, or having multiple active marriage licenses, is a third-degree felony in Utah. Utah outlawed the practice, prevalent among Mormons, so Congress would accept it as a state in 1896. (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints banned polygamy in 1890.)

If Utah doesn’t prosecute an adulterer for sleeping with several women, the judge wrote, why should it prosecute a polygamist doing the same under one roof?

In other words, Utah polygamists can’t be discriminated against now, but they still can’t get married.”

I’m not against polygamy. Some of the people in the Bible had multiple wives. Myself, I can’t afford another wife, one is enough.

Do not look for any logic, reasoning or consistency there. It only means that the homosexualist propaganda machine has had much more time to brainwash the gullible public than the polygamists have. Which makes sense since polygamists are usually busy with working, their wives and their children and lack the free time that the homosexualists have to advance their agenda.

“If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, “

Are you saying I don’t have this right former Senator Santorum?

[SuziQ]

Yeah, all those who have allowed themselves to be cowed by popular culture into ‘accepting’ homosexual marriage, are going to start feeling pretty stupid when polygamy gets pushed by the same folks.

I was at a party organized by an Orthodox synagogue a few weeks ago. There were many more women than men, many in their thirties. I asked one of the rabbis if it is true that the Rabbi Gershom's ruling banning polygamy had expired recently. He explained that it actually expired 700 years ago. However, it was a moot point for two reasons. First, the law of the land is held to be supreme here. Second he asked "who would want to be blessed with two Jewish mother-in-laws". Seeing his wife nearby, he quickly added "and not everyone will be as fortunate as me here."
His wife, who was in ear shot the whole time chimes in. "I have such a good husband. He is trying to set up my baby sister. No one of you boys put down the drink and go talk to her." After glancing at her and seeing her dress, she then said "Finish your drink first and bring another. "
The younger girl was blessed with neither looks nor wit.
