I think what they are getting at involves marriage being more than a matter of who somebody is $#@!ing.

That said, there is no legal basis left in which to ban polygamy.

So you agree the state should allow consenting adults to enter into polygamy if they choose, right?

The state will never be out of it because of Social Security benefits and the rights of the surviving spouse as well as insurance benefits of public employees. This could be overcome by ending discrimination against single people and simply allowing everyone the right to designate a beneficiary for SS and to chose whoever they want to share their insurance with. It was never gays being discriminated against, it was always single people.

The next marriage rights frontier is pedophilia.

Not marriage but just "rights", as defined by the cultural Marxist degenerates, absolutely. They desire to corrupt children. In the UK there is some govt official who was part of group trying to legalize pedophilia. That would work out great since the British establishment is full of pedophiles who could come out of the closet and be vindicated. I'm sure there are plenty here, too (like Hastert) and the scum involved in the Franklin CoverUp.

You know it's interesting. Going from the Bible......

Abraham was married to his half sister and took on a sex slave. He'd be in jail in most states just on the incest alone.

Jacob was married to two sisters. Not sure what that does for incest but he'd be in jail in most states for bigamy.

The prophet Samuel's dad had two wives. He'd be in jail for bigamy.

David would be in jail for polygamy.

Solomon would be underneath the jail for all the wives he had.

So ironically in today's post Christian American gays, who've been legally able to marry since the 1990s, just without full government recognition, are "equalized" but acts by men Christians, Jews and Muslims view as "patriarchs" and "fathers of the faithful" are still criminal. I seriously don't get it. I met a man that was married to one woman and had two other "babies' mammas" living in the house. From what I could see everyone got along. The women even shared finances. It's not something I would do but I'm not them. Still isn't it ridiculous that if this man decided to have a private ceremony, without involving the government, where he recognized one more "wife" he could be successfully prosecuted? How does that make sense again?

How does that make sense again?

It doesn't.

How does that make sense again?

Big brother wouldn't get at least a marriage license fee. Of course that'd be wrong!

Butgeig would not have got this kind of support 2-3 decades ago.
Using slippery slope model, could conservative mormons from Utah who practice 'big love' become politically mainstream in another 2-3 decades?

This is one area where we may be lagging compared to some of our foreign allies we are funding, though things have started to shift at home also rapidly since Obama-Trump policy shifts.
