But, it is arbitrary then to limit that contract to only a couple. Polygamy is on the horizon now that we have "gay marriage." I imagine Mormons and Muslims et al. will start pushing for this.docknoilshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17416051600971399573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-76835915947799500772014-08-30T10:03:14.672-05:002014-08-30T10:03:14.672-05:00another one support for traditional marriage!another one support for traditional marriage!mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05572603372579540256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-40564400510263284472014-08-29T10:38:02.435-05:002014-08-29T10:38:02.435-05:00From what I understand, polygamy was never legaliz...From what I understand, polygamy was never legalized in Rome, though they did get to the point where people could marry goats. This suggests to me these incessant marriages and divorces are a perversion of the courts in favor of those who profit every time the courts get involved, and that multiple partner relationships are unlikely to be formally recognized because the claims each partner has on the family assets reduces the amount that the divorce industry can extract. So to me the logic looks like, what's good for the lawyers?Augusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758314961163692341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-52851545824468937242014-08-28T16:23:47.590-05:002014-08-28T16:23:47.590-05:00Eventually the logic will find that people living ...Eventually the logic will find that people living together, having kids together, calling each other husband and wife, and all these children calling these adults moms and dads is not an offense against the "public good" and there will be no legal reason to criminalize concurrent marriages. This is just a step (a creeping step) towards that eventual logical resolution to the disagreement.Byzantine, TXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17845681957622343484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-17268454835042682272014-08-28T16:17:25.320-05:002014-08-28T16:17:25.320-05:00This doesn't make much sense to say it is a cr...This doesn't make much sense to say it is a creep towards polygamy. They aren't going to formally recognize the marriages, and the point made- that they don't prosecute adulterers, cohabitators, etc... is true. Civil marriage is a joke and Christians ought to be able to get married without reference to it. The marriage license is actually just a ticket for the divorce industry. They'll keep it the parties down to two, not for tradition's sake, but because multiple parties to a divorce would reduce their revenues.
