In reply to the discussion: The gay marriage decision has put us in uncharted waters with regard to polygamy [View all]Rex
(65,616 posts)As for gay marragie, the law is passed and now it is just marragie. We finally recognized that gay people are born that way and it would be cruel to force a standard that is not consistant with being fair and impartial to couples. See we are talking about two people here. The long fight was for people of any gender to be able to legally marry.
Now if you want to say swingers are good and that sometimes they fall in love with each other, each other...more power to ya! Just don't confuse what cannot be helped, with what is a choice in life. Now you want to move to another goal and say more than two people should be able to legally marry.
Go for it, but this ruling does not give weight to polygamy. That will have to be a seperate argument, because it is a choice. You can reply about Love Love Love...and I will say go for it, but still comparing apples to oranges (legaly) is just that.
Goodluck in your fight to get polygamy legalized.
Let us know how it turns out.
