But where did I ever say I did? I just said that at a gut level , I don't think I like the idea of government sponsored same-sex marriage.
I also don't like the idea of government sponsored lotteries, the draft for men only, or "hair products".
I do like silver anklets on young women with pretty ankles. And _that_ probably makes me wrong.

I don't think there is a single problem with "not liking the idea". Every one of us is completely entitled to "not like the idea". Its just when you allow you "not liking the idea" condemn others without actual reason and logic that I think its wrong.

You are not really out there alone on this one.
I don't really like the idea either. I just can't articulate why, even to myself.
But these talks help me figure my own mind out.

This doesn't ruin my day. I enjoy debates, although I must say that I tend to be a lone voice on my views on the list. It's really strange especially that I consider myself a democrat, albeit a conservative one.

But aren't the mormons allowed more than one wife?
What about the harems? Or is that sraying off topic ...
It's not uncommon ...

To each their own in the end, doesn't really affect me. I've always
taken care of myself and I've yet to take advantage of any marital tax
breaks or advantages or anything of the sort since I still pretty much
keep everything under my maiden name.
Let there be chaos!
Sorry it's ruined your day day Matt. Have a plate of muffins ...
Cheers,
Erika

On this point, if two people want to have a committed, loving
relationship, why can't three? Why not ten? Where does the number two
come from? Tradition? Society? You're insinuating that polygamy is
wrong.
It sounds like now we're pushing past your comfortable area. I happen
to think marriage is between a man and a woman. You (I'm inferring from
the message) think it's between any two people. Somebody else might
recognize it between six people. Where does it end?
