That's OK. I feel sorry for anyone who would deny any child a loving home due to their small-mindedness and bigotry.

Complete apples and oranges - those two shows are about polygamy, and polygamy comes from a very strange and secretive religion.

The women who participate on both of those shows you mentioned have huge hang-ups and jealousy issues 24/7.

Pick up any book written by someone who escaped polygamy.

They do what the do for "religion" not because they are gay and trying to make a point.

This lesbian threesome is what it is...3 whack jobs trying to push the limits of same-sex marriage.

No matter how increasingly the world is turning against Christian culture in the concept of marriage, God stance has not changed in regards to marriage. Sure there were Kings in the Bible that had multiple wives however no where did God bless these multiple unions.

Marriage between a man and a woman was instituted by God with Adam and Eve. Genesis 2:24 states: "Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh."

In Matthew 19:4-5, Jesus reaffirms this: "He answered, ‘Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one’?"

That is cute, but do you know the difference between a religious marriage and a civil marriage?

the number of people that are concerned with how other people are living their lives is truly baffling to me. If they're happy, good for them. If you try to make a religious argument, they're no more obligated to live under the rules of the Bible than you are to live under the Koran.

This is true. However, they ought not force us to agree to a redefinition of the Biblical understanding of marriage. Let them devise a new word for it.

No one is trying to change the biblical definition of marriage, just the civil marriage definition.
