If there's nothing wrong with homosexuality – if it's just as good or better than heterosexuality – then surely there is nothing wrong with three-way marriages or four-way marriages, right? Could there be anything wrong with polygamy?

How about sex with children?


Slippery slope fallacy.

Q. How about sex with children?

A. Slippery slope fallacy.

Sorry, but it's not a fallacy, it's a logical inevitability. Without a transcendant moral authority, all so-called morality boils down to only two elements: preference, and the power to enforce it. And if preferences change, so will the powers (the laws, etc.)

I predicted years ago, that once homosexuality was firmly entrenched, pedophila would be the next demon to come out of the closet, seeking "legitimization". Sadly, I was right -- New Book on Child "Sexuality"

"Slippery slope fallacy."

Some slopes are slippery. Just a brief study of control systems would prove that.

Given the right environment a perturbation can produce divergence.

To say it can never happen is in its self a logical fallacy.

Slippery slope fallacy

Please point out the fallacy. What would make homosexual marriage acceptable but not polygamy?

No it isn't. So called upstanding citizens have been arguing for pedophilia for years. Homosexuals are at the front of this charge and now have it to the point where they are changing the language to deconstruct the vile behavior. Homosexual to "gay", pedophilia to "intergenerational sex". Wake up. They've left you in the dust.
