Spoken like someone who does not have to insure an employee's six wives. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 11/08/2010 03:11:57 PM
It's probably worth noting people are horribly abusing the facts with a lot of citations of 'rights' going on here, however, for the sake of argument, can anyone justify gay marriage without justifying polygamy or incest and without mentioning procreation or two?


This is a tangent, but what are forums for if not tangents.

There is nothing inherently evil in polygamy, or indeed polyandry. As long as it is an open and honest arrangement, I don't see a problem with it. In fact, it is much more acceptable to me than people cheating on their spouses.

Incest is a whole other ball game.
