Hey, these are committed relationships -- how can we be judgmental? Shouldn't employers provide health benefits for all of these polyamorists' partners?

"The quad broke up in 1999, when Vince Botinelly, 50, looked up an old flame, thereby straying outside of the de facto group marriage and having, in essence, an "affair.""

So Vince had an "affair" and cheated on all the other nitwits?

Only a Democrat can think like that.

Liberals' next social engineering project. That bourgeois institution, the family, has got to go!

This drivel took the place of coverage of the Colorado Right to Life March for Life which drew over 1,000 attendees. Although a lovely photo of our 100 white dove release appeared, there was no article - merely a 3 sentence description of the gathering.

"Advocates like Trask say polyamory is natural, and monogamy is not."

Yeah, AMONGST CHIMPANZEES!

Impossible the homos said this would never happen if gay marriage were allowed.

"...group marriages won't be far behind, they say."

Nor group divorces. Imagine that one in court for 30 years!

Did I skim this wrong, or did all of the "polycouples" in this article include a divorce or seperation?

"Trask, 40, describes herself as "spiritual." Pagan runes, half-moons, leaping dolphins, Hindu gods and other artifacts from spirituality's vast archipelago decorate her house and her body."

Oh, now there's a shock!

What if all of the members of a cult joined together in one big group marriage? Would companies be required to provide health care coverage for all members even if only one of them was an employee ... or would that be a violation of church and state?

The weirdness is multiplying!

As clinton would say, it depends what you mean by "love." I'd venture to say that most of these people are in love with themselves, at best. I feel sorry for their kids.

I'm just curious about one thing. When did the Bible outlaw polygamy?

Polyamorists fall in love with all they couple with

Looking for a certain passage: The Malloy, stockade, From Here to Eternity.

IMHO there's something to it.

This is the second thread today that I have had to double check to make sure it wasn't from Scrappleface.com---the other being the one about Harold Ford jr.'s Uncle in Tennessee having two different wives, houses, families,etc, WHILE being a State Senator!!

Now this, I think I must have Rip Van Winkle syndrome or something. This is NOT my country. My country had marriages that hopefully got to Golden and Silver Anniversarys. Where families had 2.2 kids, double car garage, picket fence, etc.

Either the world has gone mad, OR it is trying to drive me mad!!!

My guess is, no matter how satisfied this woman is trying to portray herself, that she is desperately searching for something to truly satisfy her.

She is not going to find it in new age, Hindu philosophy, paganism or many different men's and women's beds no matter how much she looks.

"The problem, of course (with polyamory), is jealousy, and it's a huge problem,"

Why can't we all just get along?
