So you're ok with poligamy and incest if the people engaging in it fall under those catagories?
Sure. Why not?
I think the logistical problems involved in legalizing a multi-partner "marriage" will prove an insurmountable obstacle for the foreseeable future though.
(In case you don't know, there are already multi-partner families raising children. AFAIK, the sun will still rise tomorrow.)

We already have 'serial' polygamy with the legal framework in place & 'normalized' by culture. One can be married to more than one person, just not at the same time.
Incest is another story, not sure if those willing would pass the first benchmark.
" Perhaps the most common Scripture-twisting done by the homosexualist movement is pretending that the sin of Sodom was inhospitality, rather than homosexuality. Even a cursory review of the text of Genesis 19 and related texts, however, reveals clearly that Sodom’s principal sin had to be aberrosexual in nature. Genesis 19, ironically, provides perhaps the most exuberantly over-the-top illustration of hospitality in all of literature. Nobody was a better host than Lot."

A little bit of research shows Mr. Vallorani is a believer of Christian Reconstruction.
From Building God's Kingdom: Inside the World of Christian Reconstruction by Julie J. Ingersoll:
Vallorani is also the executive vice president of American Vision. Here is some information on that group:

Mission
Restore America to its Biblical Foundation — From Genesis to Revelation — Psalm 11:3
Motto
Exercising Servanthood Dominion — Genesis 1:28 and Matthew 28:18-20
Vision
An America that recognizes the sovereignty of God over all of life, where Christians apply a Biblical worldview to every facet of society. This future America will be again a “city on a hill” drawing all nations to the Lord Jesus Christ and teaching them to subdue the earth for the advancement of His Kingdom.
American Vision is listed as an anti-gay group by SPLC:
Led since 1986 by Gary DeMar, American Vision is one of the primary exponents of the doctrine of “Christian Reconstruction” — the idea that the U.S. was founded as a “Christian nation” and that its democracy should be replaced with a theocratic government based on Old Testament law. As a practical matter, that means American Vision, which describes its goal as “restor[ing] America’s Biblical foundation,” backs the death penalty for practicing homosexuals.
DeMar has modified that dictum slightly in the past, saying that homosexuals wouldn’t all be executed under a “reconstructed” government, but that he did believe that the occasional execution of “sodomites” would serve society well because “the law that requires the death penalty for homosexual acts effectively drives the perversion of homosexuality underground, back into the closet.” More recently, while hosting American Vision’s “The Gary DeMar Show” in December 2009, Joel McDurmon, the group’s research director, agreed that the Bible does call for killing homosexuals. And, he said, “when most of a society is Christian, is biblical, then it [execution of gays] is perfectly normal; it should definitely be in place.”
In April 2009, DeMar said: “Homosexuals aren’t content with only having the bedroom. They have taken their perversion into the classrooms, teaching that such practices are normal. There is nothing normal about what homosexuals do.”
DeMar, who was closely allied with the late D. James Kennedy of Coral Ridge Ministries (see below), is a central figure in Reconstruction theology, which was founded by R.J. Rushdoony (see Chalcedon Foundation, below). He is co-author of Christian Reconstruction: What It Is, What It Isn’t with Gary North.
DeMar has also said that a “long-term goal” should be “the execution of abortionists and their parents.” Islam is another enemy, he said in August 2010: “The long-term goal of Islam is the abolition of our constitutional freedoms.”
So please forgive me if I take this "information" you've posted as the BS that it is; a play at propaganda to villianize homosexuals while striving to make this country into an American theocracy.
Propaganda by the homosexualists. Many years after Sodom and Gomorrah's destruction, God gave Mose the Law, which called homosexual acts, along with incest and bestiality, an abomination worthy of the death penalty; that's the Holy Bible.
