Why stop at 2 consenting adults. Why not allow 3, 4, heck 10 consenting adults to get married. It wont hurt anybody at all..
I don't think it would, nor do I have a compelling argument as to why it should be illegal. However, like NAMBLA, I don't think that was the topic of the thread.
Heck add in a goat, a sheep and a mule and you'll have a real down home event.

There is no reason to compare homosexuality to beastiality. They are no where near the same. I'd have to look it up, but I'm going to bet that the majority of people engaging in beastiality are heterosexuals.
Because that's not what the debate is about. The question is: Do we each, as Californians, have a right to marry the individual of our choice?
And don't veer off into comments about marrying your brother or sister because, again, that's not what this is about.
Actually thats exactly what the debate is about.
The debate is if the LEGAL definition of marriage should be changed. If your going to change it, then why not allow 3, 4, 10 people to get married. After all, that would be the non-bigoted, progressive thing to do, right?

Changing the legal definition of "Marriage" is the topic of the thread.. so yes, marrying multiple individuals is on topic..
Hey, if your all for same sex partners getting married, I'm all for marrying 2, 3, heck 7 females sounds right..
Are you saying that your oppostition to gay marriage is your fear it will lead to more than two people being married to each other?
I'm opposed to the change of the definition of marriage PERIOD. But if your going to shout and scream that you want the right to marry someone of the same sex, then I want the right to marry multiple females. Its progressive and non bigoted..
I see your point, but they had seen hetero's kiss and it was not the same reaction. They know, its not a mystery to them.
Hard to believe they weren't influenced by you or your wife, then.

Well while that certainly could have been part of it, the advertisers pulled the plug on any more ads, after the kiss.
I never heard that, but it could be the case. Shameful.

Not fully accepted nor partially accepted, tolerated yes... accepted... don't see it happening, and i think prop 8 proved that.
Then you have less patience than I do. These things take time.

Really i thought what a waste of time, pushing a anti gay marriage prop. in California... i figured that liberal state to have bought into gay is okay, long ago. But fortunately i was wrong... at least for now.
Exactly...for now.

It's been studied to death, and i've yet to see a case where there wasn't some trigger or excuse for gay behavior. I don't need to justify, its all there for the world to see, and i don't cheer the suffering, i have empathy and hope.
You need to get out more, because I have met plenty of well-adjusted non-heterosexuals who have not suffered abuse. Common sense. You do have to justify views such as those--the ones that contradict reason. And there's no sense in having hope for those who are fine as it is. If you won't support marriage for all, redirect all that empathy and hope to people who are starving or otherwise suffering.

Good luck with that. But what the heck, if you can find that many to put up with you then go for it.
