Is Polygamy Next?
NY Times ^ | July 21, 2015 | William Baude

NOW that the dust is settling from the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which recognized a right to same-sex marriage, there are new questions. In particular, could the decision presage a constitutional right to plural marriage? If there is no magic power in opposite sexes when it comes to marriage, is there any magic power in the number two?

Now with gay marriage entrenched as a constitutional right, it is safe for the SSM advocates to advocate for the legalization of polygamy.

This is old news. The guy in Montana already has a lawsuit pending and many couples in Utah have already sued. There’s a reality show about it for crying out loud. It’s only a matter of time.

I don’t think polygamy is next, because expanding (destroying) the definition of marriage was but a method to get to what they are truly after -

criminalizing Christian beliefs.

They’ve achieved that with “gay marriage”, so there’s no need to go further on the marriage front.

I look for trannies to be the next tightening of the screws. Make it illegal to “discriminate” against transexuals. You have to let them in your daughter’s lockerroom at school, in the bathrooms, showers, etc, or you will be sanctioned by the state.

Also, start looking for big pushes to remove 501c3 status from anything Christian.
After that, the jailing of pastors for preaching anything “homophobic” or “transphobic”.

Why not?

If the only rule is “Any two people who love each other...” ...

The goal was polygamy all along—Sharia allows 4 wives.

criminalizing Christian beliefs.

True. I've noticed that the log cabin republicans seem to have evaporated once they got what they wanted. Now Atheists are showing up at GOP events demanding a seat at the table for their agenda.

Yes.

Simply because free love sex across all age groups is the goal.
Ultimately, the gay-nazi want to bugger children.

Compared to a couple of coprophiliacs having lunch at the bottom, polygamy is pretty normal. How many men have had more than one girlfriend? Ask yourself that question.

Well, I haven’t met one woman that can keep up with me yet. Even those nearly half my age.

They’re just not physically as capable as a man can be so I understand where the desire for more women comes from

The goal of every male queer on the planet. Queers are the only swarm of degenerates that actually have an organization devoted to the rape of little boys—NAMBLA, and now they are in scouting organizations, churches, and the military.

When missionaries come into an area, one of the first things they do is encourage traditional families as the Christian model. Has there ever been a successful, ethical civilization that hasn't?

What we have is reverse engineering of civilization, initiatives that bring the majority of the human population to a "herded" status, and not at all in control of self-improvement or destinies. Instant gratification destroys initiative.

I've reached a new level of disgust. I'm beginning to believe that all conspiracy theories are real and all news is fiction.

Been my position on the internet since 1999 (Use-net Groups).

Everyone says...”you’re crazy.”
I just say, “Baby steps, brother. Baby steps.”

Well, people need to stop using the language constructed by the queers to cover their real behavior disorder. Once the queers established the language by labeling themselves “gay” they were well on the road to winning the battle for the coprophiliacs and lesbians. Normal people joined their cause, unknowingly, by using the language queers established to downplay their mental illness. The first step to regaining control is to STOP using their language and call them what they are and describing them for what they do.

We speak the same (etymological) language, FRiend.
Recover the language and the errorists will fold into historical obscurity.
Upside? Our children will be safe.

Except assuming they don’t know, even if they did, they don’t care. Because it’s not perversion to them. It’s equitable, with no impact.

I’ve had people ask me all the time: “How does it impact you?” “Who cares? Why do you care if two men or two women want to be married.?”

I predicted the next one would be BI. BI implies at least a threesome.
