"it is a horrendous breach of the government's powers to impose their views on the issue on the individual citizens of America."
Oh, okay. So maybe the government can just look the other way while marriage between 3 or 4 partners starts happening. Or marriage between mother & son, or father & daughter..........
Yeah, we would just hate it if the government imposed those "old-fashioned" views of just a one man/one woman marriage on everyone. Sure....let everyone be "free"..........
Sorry, that just won't work. There's a lot of us out here who just won't go along with the 'anything-goes' type of thinking.

There are an unfortunate ammount of armchair fascists and totalitarians out there who call themselves conservatives too.
The truth is, you don't have anymore control over marriage as an "institution" than I do. The difference is that I don't pretend to legally strong-arm my views on marriage onto others.
You think I'll change my argument because of your strong-man? You're off your rocker then, pal, because it's not my business if ma and son wanna get hitched (though it is ugly and perverted) or if three or more want to get married. As far as I'm concerned, marriage has outlived it's usefulness as anything more than a religious custom now that OVER HALF of all U.S. marriages end in divorce.
BTW: I misunderstood one of your above posts. I retract my kind words and thanks towards you in my last post. You don't deserve my respect.
