    Absolutely… Ether the government maintains the status quo or simply gets out of the business altogether. Who the hell do they think they are anyways?

    If you wish to marry a goat, marry a goat, I just really don’t care if you sleep with a goat as long as you keep your sex life to yourself. Sleep with two goat for all that I care, it’s not my business. I don’t want to know how you prefer goats or wish to change to a goat in the future when medicine can successfully change your species. This is a personal decision and I do not wish to be involved nor do I wish to pay for your species change operation.

    I personally don’t believe that marriage between two people of the same sex conforms to natural law, homosexuality is an evolutionary dead-end, no way to self-perpetuate. This in itself is a reason why to teach your children that homosexuality is not normal and should be avoided. I have a personal interest in my children living happy healthy lives to perpetuate my genes.

    The reason why I say this is because I live in California where the government has decided that I cannot effectively raise my children in a way that I see is appropriate. The California government has taught my children that the homosexual lifestyle is an acceptable lifestyle without repercussions. Children going through adolescence are vulnerable at this age and the California government allows the Gay Strait Alliance to have a chapter at every school where they teach my children about the different types of homosexuality and then asks what type they think they are, all without my acceptance nor approval.

    The major issue I have with a gay thing today is that it’s not okay to disapprove of their lifestyle. Why should they care what I think as long as they are happy, just leave me and my family alone.

    P.S. The TV network are being turned off each and every time a person’s sexuality is disclosed in an inappropriate situation.

    I think if people want to slog that hard row, we shouldn't get in their way. Jus till any other personal issue between consenting adults.

    I don't have a problem in principle with multiple wives and husbands. I do object to situations where 16-year-old girls are being forced to marry guys older than their grandfather.

    My husband announced to me that we were going to move to Utah and he was going to start collecting wives.
    My reply was: "GOOD! I could use a wife-or-two!"

    Which one would be abnormal in that situation? How about three, all of unknown genders? Or how about two plus a goat? I've seen a video of that already. The goat didn't get his (or her) "fair share".

    Politics forced the Mormon church to officially abandon polygamy, but mother nature tells me that as a species it just doesn't work.

    i fail to see the problem of some people wanting to be part of a group that has no problem with each of the others having sex with the same person when ever they want. i see no problem with some who chose to have sex with the same sex as they are. The problem i do see is that the g o v e r n m e n t wants control over ALL OF US and therefore the government will do anything and everything it can to accommodate as many as possible of trying to be all things to one and all. just like wanting the government to leave us alone in business they have to leave us alone in out private lives. polygamy doesn't exist today as the mormons just live together as a group and only one couple is married.

    In virtually all states that have common law marriages a necessary element is that you deliberately hold yourself out as being married. So you are in no danger of being deemed to be in a common law marriage unless you do consent. Hope this makes you rest easier.

    I have no objection to the concept of multiple spouses, but having descended from a Mormon polygamist line, I know that it did not work. Somehow evolution has formed us to be monogamist and that is just the way that it works best.

    Consent is consent. Whatever works for people. Polygamy should not be illegal.

    I can imagine situations where it would be financially beneficial to all. We make too big a deal out of sex.

    The government should not be involved in the institution of marriage.

    What should be next is the government gets out of the relationship approval business... but if they are going to be in it then multiple relationships should not be refused either. For instance, man and women get married and has kids. Man then discovers he is attracted to other men and wants to marry a man but does not want to be legally limited in dealing with existing wife and kids. Should be allowed to do so.

    now, that's a fine response. . it was ours, with my first
    wife, until it became obvious that the air force would not
    accept our living together, unmarried. . we found a justice
    of the peace. . complicated things, especially when we
    decided to split up, 15 years later!!! -- j
