This is exactly why I have never been able to get on board any sort of Gay Marriage boat. If you can morally and legally justify allowing marriage between two same sex partners, then I see no way you can logically deny polyamorous (for lack of a better term) marriage without being a complete hypocrite because there is a whole lot more justification for polygamy in both scripture, tradition, and biology across species than for homosexuality and same sex marriage.

“Elizabeth Emens of the University of Chicago Law School published a substantial legal defense of polyamory in a legal journal. She suggested that ‘we view this historical moment, when same-sex couples begin to enter the institution of marriage, as a unique opportunity to question the mandate of compulsory monogamy.’ “

The vanguard attack on traditional marriage by GLBT supporters leads to this logical progression of the overall attack on traditional values.

And some may say, “So what?”

Well, traditional marriage, whether or not it bears the fruit of children, is fundementally all about ‘one man and one woman’ binding themselves together (cleaving unto one another) in marriage for the purpose of providing a family unit for the rearing of children.

And in answer to my hypothetical “So what?,”
I say that the absence of such a traditional family unit makes it much much more likely that children reared outside of such a unit will become dysfunctional adults.

The Lord didn’t say “Thou shalt leave thy father and mother and cleave unto several women.”  He did say “Thou shalt cleave unto thy woman and take her as thy wife,” or words to that effect.  Emphasis on the singular “woman.”

From the quoted part of the article it appears that as long as the women don’t dress alike and braid their hair the same way it’s somehow more acceptable to the author. I suppose the hair and clothing could be a sign of evil male domination, but I can’t help but think the people complaining are cluching at straws trying to get a grip on what they’ll accept now that the definition of marraige is open for interpretation.

Ditto #1, and to me, the whole thing hallmarks a reversion to paganism.

Sounds kinda like survivor, where you could bounce people out until you find yourself in a monogamous relationship.
