Gay Marriage Ruling

[Mark Holmes]

Meadandale; perhaps appealing to your heart was a mistake. Maybe someday you will find yourself in the minority, your rights subject to others whims. I would imagine you’ve never experienced that. I could be wrong. But in my experience, those who exhibit empathy for others have experienced something similar in their lives at some time.

Vote the way you like. But asking you to not vote is no different than trying to convince you to vote otherwise. It’s simply political discussion. I’m not trying to “take away” your rights, as the constitutional amendment, if it passes in November, will most decidedly do to gay Californians who have finally been given the right to marry.

The same arguments made in favor of gay marriage, can also be made in favor of polygamy: who are we to tell people who they can love? Once gay marriage becomes a right in the majority of states, the polygamists will lobby for, and receive, the same rights of marriage that gays have.

If you don’t think that will happen you are DELUSIONAL.

Gay marriage now, polygamy later. Imagine an extended family of bi-sexual polygamists! Five men married to seven women and each other! Holy Vaseline, Batman!

Well, if gay marriage and interracial marriage rulings are any example, polygamy might well become legal when about 40% of people approve of the practice. That sort of large minority isn’t happening right now, except maybe in Utah where they were forced to write a ban into their original constitution.

Realize for a moment, though, that polygamy laws come from the dominant culture. We may find it distateful, but polygamy is legal in the Muslim world because their religion allows it. It used to be legal in pre-state Utah beecause their religion allowed it. I think our problem with polygamy isn’t hippie triads living in San Francisco and abusing Vaseline, but cultures where women are bred to be property.
