Bishop Hugh Gilbert of Aberdeen asked why equality did not extend to "nieces who genuinely, truly love their uncles" and why men could not have two wives, adding such scenarios were not freaks of nature but might in fact occur in Scottish parishes.

As you said, he's speaking logically. Of course the homosexual activists don't like this, because they know that if everyone else did the same, they may not be quite so in favor of homosexual marriage.

It won't be long now, in the US, before some polygamists start agitating for their 'right to marry'. On what grounds will a court that has already allowed homosexual marriage deny them to anyone else?

Exactly - and this is why it might be a very good thing if polygamists began boldly requesting this right now (already occurring in Canada).
