>>some of us did on here too, plus the next one after this is reduce the age of consent to 13.

A longstanding goal advocated by the radical lesbian who founded NOW

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Millett

In an interview with Mark Blasius, Millett was sympathetic to the concept of intergenerational sex, describing age of consent laws as “very oppressive” to gay male youth in particular but repeatedly reminding the interviewer that the question cannot rest on the sexual access of older men or women to children but a rethinking of children’s rights broadly understood.[45]

Millett added that “one of children’s essential rights is to express themselves sexually, probably primarily with each other but with adults as well” and that “the sexual freedom of children is an important part of a sexual revolution ... if you don’t change the social condition of children you still have an inescapable inequality”.[45]

In this interview, Millett criticized those who wished to abolish age of consent laws, saying the issue was not focused on children’s rights but “being approached as the right of men to have sex with kids below the age of consent” and added that “no mention is made of relationships between women and girls”.[45]

Millett believes sexual access to children is only one part of a larger goal of liberating children from all forms of parental oppression.[46]

And there’s no reason to say 3 men can’t marry 5 women.

The late Robert Rimmer wrote an endless series of novels presenting every permutation of this theme back in the 1970’s/80’s beginning with the campus underground best seller ‘The Harrad Experiment’. Amazing how much that era keeps on giving.

For thousands of years the term "stepmother" had negative connotations even though there have undoubtedly been many stepmothers (and stepfathers) who loved their stepchildren very much (Abraham Lincoln's stepmother is a case in point). See Cinderella and her stepmother. But in the past that situation usually arose because the biological parent had died and the surviving parent remarried. Modern "polyamory" promises to be far worse for any children involved.

The story in the Bible of Solomon confronted with two women both claiming to be the true mother of the baby presupposes that the true parent has a much stronger bond to the child.

You were listing people who want to drop the age of consent. In the Boston Diocese I am confident that would include most of the priests.

It’s coming.....

They’re going to start talking about it more and more. Those that speak against it will be the next target of the Left. Eventually, folks will shut up about it like they did all things homosexual. And it will be de-criminalized.

Do you think you could ever convince the parents of this 11yr old that there’s anything wrong with it?

Remember when Barry Goldwater said the 1964 Civil Rights legislation would lead to racial quotas and hiring preferences?

He was “rewarded” a few months later by the worst presidential election beating in American history.

and don’t forget multiple mothers-in-law...


One could always marry sisters to obviate that objection. Flipside, I’ve been told the Chinese ideogram for trouble is two women under one roof.

I remember Goldwater. Factually, whoever ran against James Monroe in 1820 took the biggest electoral loss (John Quincy Adams) 231-1.

Re: Electoral Vote

I should have specified the popular vote.

LBJ’s 61.1% share of the popular vote was the largest margin after 1820, when the Federalist Party collapsed and did not even field a candidate against James Monroe.

Several of the Founding Father presidents also crushed the Federalist candidates after John Adams - a Federalist - beat Thomas Jefferson in 1796.

Harding, in 1920, and FDR, in 1936, both got within 1% of LBJ’s record, but they both fell slightly short.

The education system, ungodly, as in the days of Lot and in the days of Noah, has reprobate minds as 10 yr olds permeating adulthood. The viciousness of the devil is in adulthood.

To be precise, you and I (and all people) are primates.

Very true, and MANY things are true, but society (well, PARTS of it) get upset when true things are said.

Take NIGGARDLY for example...

A BIBLICAL Message about homosexuality



 
Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.


Leviticus niv

18:22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.

20:13 If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

 
 


Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;

they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it.

Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

================================================

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.

They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.


Romans 1     New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)
 
 18 The wrath of God is indeed being revealed from heaven against every impiety and wickedness of those who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them. 20 Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse; 21 for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened. 22 While claiming to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes.
 

24 Therefore, God handed them over to impurity through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their bodies. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, 27 and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper. 29 They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite. 


2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

We are living in a Genesis 19:9 world...
 

"Get out of our way,” they replied.
“This fellow came here as a foreigner, and now he wants to play the judge!
We’ll treat you worse than them.”
They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.

They just released a report in my home town (60 miles from the town in this article) that confirmed the bishop and several of his priests were all pedarists. My disdain for the Maganement of the Catholic Church is no secret.

I lived in Quincy and Weymouth since my wife was from there.
I managed to convince her to get out of that state and now she said it is the best thing she ever did, however I worked when the perverts were being reported and I too was pissed off.
