I remember that Traditionalists were mocked by the LGBT community and the MSM that the arguments used to identify a so called Constitutional right to gay marriage can be used to legalize polygamy. The Left no longer needs to keep then mask on too. Hat tip Rod Dreher at American Consrvative.

Gay marriage has made polygamy seem almost tame. I suppose that was the point.

Goldfeder argues not only that polygamy is in keeping with the legislative values and freedoms of the United States

I guess the founder of the GOP did not get that message. The founding planks of the Republican party; “to prohibit … those twin relics of barbarism: polygamy and slavery.”

We won’t be free until people with multiple personalities can marry their other selves!

I have NEVER seen a reasonable answer to the question of, given the “rationale” of gay “marriage,” why not incest marriages, polygamy/polyandry, etc. Any number of 2:n people of any sex/gender is allowed under the rules for gay “marriage.”

I am surprised it has taken this long.

Marriage as an institution in the USA died after the very first state sanctioned gay “marriage.”

Might as well just go to child marriage (any age), zoonotic marriage (animals), and PIAPS marriage (beasts who look like HRDC).

The Left shrieked "consented adults!" for over a decade about gay marriage.

If 'one man, one woman," could be changed to 'any two people,' I don't see why the number is set in stone either. It is, after all, consenting adults.

What’s the end game here? That the whole world - young, old; mankind, beast - engage in 24/7 orgy?

Secular marriage no longer has any meaning. You cannot quantify or qualify love.

Marriage is and always was about establishing a family unit to raise children. Nothing more, nothing less.

In Australia they are already arguing for group marriage, where two bisexual men can marry two bisexual woman.

It’s coming here, a total destruction of the nuclear family, all caused by Anthony Kennedy and the four other insane evil liberal justices on the ‘supreme’ court.

Society and individuals can either make up their own rules or follow God’s commandments.

Choice is either 60 to 100 years now or life with God for eternity.

When Jesus came, he elevated matrimony to the same status it had originally possessed between Adam and Eve—the status of a sacrament. Thus, any valid marriage between two baptized people is a sacramental marriage and, once consummated, cannot be dissolved. Jesus, therefore, taught that if anyone so married divorces and remarries, that person is living in perpetual adultery, a state of mortal sin.

He said, “Every one who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery” (Luke 16:18; cf. Mark 10:11–12).

God’s Peace be with you.

In a lot if ways polygamy seems really natural.

The biggest obstacles, ofoucrse, being women's (in gemeral) inability to get along with one another and need for drama.

The second being the Donald Trump alphas of the world would get all the women, living little for regular, lesser so men.

Theft doesn’t want polygamy but polyamory (aka free sex).

Of course it’s coming. How do you think muzzies plan to multiply?

It will come after a prominent celebrity comes out as BI and gets its pic on the cover of People or some other fluff mag.

I agree with the honest pundit who pointed out that nothing has been more destructive to the institution of marriage in this country than the widespread acceptance of divorce among Americans who call themselves Christians.

Then after this, no age limit so an old man can marry a 14 year old girl.
