I thought we weren't supposed to redefine marriage.



As far as the Mormon Church goes, they my define marriage within their church as they please.

The people of California have defined marriage in California.

The Mormons can work to pass initiatives as they please just like gays. In this case the Mormons won and gays lost. That's how democracy works.

Do you REALLY think that if gay marriage is allowed, that the courts are going to allow us to marry animals??
Absolutely! Why not? When we slide down the slope of moral depravity it's hard to stop the landslide. Sorry.

There are cults, clubs, groups, segments of the population who are very.....into their animals.

To all the retards who bring in animals and children, animals can give consent? Children can legally give consent to marriage?

That's the same slippery slope argument they use for interracial marriages.

I can deal with gay marriage, and I have no problems with gays/lesbians being married. But not polygamy, one partner is enough.
The fact that young girls are being victims of polygamy makes me think worse of it. And that whole cult thing seems creepy.

If young girls werent being forced into that and there was an age limit, then maybe. Just maybe.

If they are all consenting adults, I can live with it. Yes, two dudes kissing is disgusting, or other certain lifestyles are disgusting, but that is just my opinion. If they are all consenting adults, I would not want to interfere with their lives. I don't want some moron whose faith or personal belief is that oral sex is dirty and wrong to prevent me from getting some ... or giving some.

That would be the 'maybe' I was talking about. If young girls consented to it, then yeah, whatever.
If they did consent to it, I'd still say that they were influenced.
It is a cult.

I am totally against gay marriage and polygamy, however if gay marriage is legalized, then so should polygamy. It is not fair to allow marriage for gays, and not Bisexuals who may be attracted to both sexes.


Keep traditional marriage the way it is--No polygamy and no gay marriage.

I suppose this is a fair question to ask, considering the Mormon church is actively being attacked by masses of homosexuals who are intolerant of people who have different viewpoints than them.

But, would you support legalizing Polygamy? I know many gay people who vocally opposed polygamy (particularly from that episode a few years back). If your so much in favor of legalizing gay marriage, which I still think is not considered "marriage", wouldn't it only be fair to legalize polygamy between consenting adults? I mean think about it. I am sure the looneys in San Fran would vote no to legalize Polygamy, but they expect respect from the Mormon church in return?

This very hostile group (today a woman was attacked for carrying a cross near a Palm Springs riot) seems to have many holes in its argument. And attacking other groups for opposing your viewpoint is not the way to accomplish things....its in fact counterproductive.

Just a couple of thoughts to ponder. Please state if you support Gay marriage and if you support legalizing polygamy.
I don't support either gay marriage or polygamy. Marriage is a union between a man and a woman. Any other variation would be counterfeit.
