Polygamy is the next big thing. And then pedophilia and necrophilia and zoophilia.
Why shouldn’t people be allow to marry who they love? And oh add incest into the mix - after all, who is more dear than family?
Its a slippery slope.
BTTT.
We left the slippery slope behind years ago.
You got that right. All the arguments the left used to get homosexual marriage legalized can be used to justify all of the perversions you’ve listed. Had we argued the original purpose of marriage , namely the procreation and protection of children, the same-sex marriage arguments would be meaningless.
It is a slippery slope.
In 1967, Pope Paul VI wrote an encyclical that predicted what would happen when birth control got its foothold. He said it would end up like this, because when the true marriage bond is broken, it becomes essentially an opened Pandora’s box.

Marriage is for a man and a woman - for the unitive aspect of their relationship and for the procreation of children.
Marriage cannot be duplicated between same sex, or man and child, or man and animal, because both the unitive and the procreative aspects necessarily include the work of God.
And, God cannot be a party to anything other than what He designed without repercussions taking place at some point.
Marriages take place as an oath. An oath that forces God to be a witness as in “joined together” in a religious or even a civil ceremony.
And it will only do one thing - bring curses upon the parties involved. Because God cannot be a witness to a lie.
