Reformed America becomes Deformed America, as the new normal is nothing but abnormal.
Slate was founded by Bill Gates, so does Bill Gates support this abomination too?
The author writes “As a conservative who supports gay marriage, and has done so for quite some time”.... And then at the end of the article “Forget the ‘slippery slope’ — it appears a dam has broken. And I’m sitting here wondering if I did the right thing helping to smash it open.”
What the heck does a “conservative” think is going to happen by supporting the liberal agenda? He doesn’t sound so conservative if he still has to wonder if he is suffering from buyer’s remorse.
And the gay “marriage” advocates knew polygamy was next as well.
Gay rights advocates can’t be trusted. They claim their “rights” won’t affect heterosexuals but then sue Christian business owners who don’t like their lifestyle.
Polygamy is a way for making women slaves to men.
I am waiting for pedophiles calling for the marriage to children. Children become slaves to perverts.
When we let the Marxists throw out the tradition of marriage that has served our society for generations, we have destroyed one more thing: the idea that there is universal truth derived from natural law. Natural law has protected the individual from the collective. It is the basis of our Constitution. They are destroying the notion of natural law right from under our nose.
The Marxists are destroying America from within. Same sex marriage is one more tactic from the Marxist tool box. Pretty soon, when all the widgets that hold together our society have been loosened, the critical mass will have been reached and we will explode into the universe of history. Human beings will once again be set back in time to when the individual was the slave of the state.
0bammy wants Sharia law here with each male member of TROP would then have multiple beggardeshi wives; essentially being jihadist breeder reactors..
Hey, What about a man and his horse?
Liar
Anyone who thought it would stop with gay marriage wasn’t thinking logically.
There is far, far, more religious, historical, and cultural precedents for polygamy than can be found for gay marriage and UNLIKE gay marriage, a polygamous union can provide a safe and secure environment for children.
In fact, prior to the modern era, I have not been able to find reference to a single culture/civilization/period where gay marriage was a legal and recognized social institution.
Clever possibilities here:
How about parents marrying their children to avoid death taxes?
All that I had to read was “As a conservative who supports gay marriage, and has done so for quite some time” and instantly knew where this was going.
Apparently the writer was confused as to what a “conservative” was. He sure as heck knew what a queer was however.
Personally, I will never be satisfied until the law is changed so that I can marry half a dozen midgets, my horse, and my pet cocker spaniel.
1. For all you thumpers, there’s Biblical precedent.
2. Lawyers would looooove the new complications in divorce law.
3. Why not? By all statistical indicators, traditional marriage is dying as an institution. Change is interesting! (Yes, that’s sarcasm.)
4. I’ve been married for 25+ years. Would never do it again.
Sorry, I stopped listening after that part.
Curiously, when advocates of gay marriage are asked if their policy also would allow polygamy or polyandry, they recoil in horror and insist that it does not. However, logic demands that it does. I would ask how same-sex parents are going to react in the future when, for example, Utah public schools officials require that teachers instruct the children that LDS-related polygamy is just as “normal” as same-sex “marriage”. The fact that this will be an issue will show yet again that gay “marriage” is not about marriage at all it is about forcing the rest of us to approve of repugnant sexual immorality, something that LDS polygamists never demanded.
After same-sex marriage causes polygamy to be recognized polyandry won’t be far behind. Brave new world!
It is time to get government out of regulating a private religious institution. Government has its own morality that people adopt because of how pervasive government is in our lives. Jesus said that marriage was defined by God and not man, and man cannot undo what God has done. (Mark 10:9)
Therefore, people who God would not join are not married in His eyes even if the State says they are. Whatever civil union these people are in, it is not and can never be marriage.
Polygamy, but only if you’re atheists. It won’t be permitted for Mormons or other sects which practice polygamy on religious grounds.
(I’m not sanctioning polygamy under any circumstances. I’m just pointing out hypocrisy as the left has been relentless about pursuing and exposing any instances of polygamy based on religious traditions.)
