I'm not surprised. Polygamy.

Man applies for marriage license for second wife. Says he'll sue.

Just the beginning.

Non profit status for churches is in their crosshairs.

I guess I'll be the voice of reason and just wait to see what happens before I get my panties all wadded up.

I have no problem with plural marriage. At the very least there will be a parent around when one of those many kids need them.

If animals get rights, can they marry?

Can they sign the licence? Throwing out ridiculous arguments gets you no where.

So, are Military/Service dogs being abused because they have not "signed" any contract?

I hope we see it. Just one more step toward the precipice..

If Homos use a rainbow, what will polygamist use as their little cute sign?

Yes, another off the wall post that has nothing to do with the subject at hand.

I cannot see how anyone that supported gay marriage could not support polygamy. All the same arguments apply.

I don't have a problem with polygamy, but it is illegal in the US right now. That would have to be dealt with before anything else can progress. Hence there shouldn't be any bunching panties... yet.

I agree, and support both. However, I find it somewhat ironic that a religion know for its past support of polygamy was such a big supporter of California's Proposition 8. Given the LDS church's past persecution from the government based on their marriage practices, and also considering their doctrine of "free agency", you'd think they'd be on the side of marriage freedom.

Just think about the dude if he marries a couple of women and they both divorce him, he will be in a world of hurt.

That already happens, they just are not married at the same time before they get divorced.

This could put divorce lawyers out of business. Why get divorced?

I see what you mean. It does leave you tied financially to the person and that could be a much bigger problem than the cost of the divorce.

What we need is a "Whatever floats your boat." law. In for a penny. In for a pound. If a dog engages in intercourse with a human female does that mean it's just casual sex or is it true love? Lady Rottweiler of internet fame wants to know. Panties optional.

The rest of us ... are stocking up on popcorn ... and watching the old black and white movies.
