Morality should not be legislated in ANY form. Should Gay Marriage be legal, yes. Should polygamy be allowed, yes. As for the rest....well..saying no would negate my entire point and saying yes would initiate a slough of messages in my mailbox so I'll just leave by reinforcing my original statement that morality should NOT be legislated.. |

I have always believed that only two things should regulate the number of wives a man can have. First, his ability to support them, he can have as many as he can support (including children) without government assistance. Second, he can have as many wives as he can stand mulitple Mothers-in law! |

well, i don't think you should be calling it immoral- love isn't immoral, and wanting to express that love shouldn't be either. as long as it it's a healthy relationship, i don't see why it should even be the government's buisness at all. |

Much as I hate to admit it, you do have a point in there somewhere. |

It is ridiculous to compare gay and poly marriages to bestiality and molestation. Gay people are talking about marrying human beings, not animals.
As for underage marriage, the legal age to marry is generally 18 in the U.S, and we aren't talking about changing that law. You are bringing up arguments that do not relate to this issue.
It would only be fair to make polygamy legal if they make gay marriage legal though. I support both of these types of marriage because they aren't hurting anyone but maybe the parties involved (Hey straight people hurt each other all the time!), and because it just isn't right to govern other people's morals for them. I mean think about that...don't you like to decide your own morals?
Also, many gay marriages face alot of problems when separating or if one partner dies because of legal property issues, so they want to get married for practical as well as romantic reasons.
The bottom line is that people should be free to decide their own morals.
****Incidentally, I have been married to my husband for 8 years, I have no gay friends, and I do not live in Utah. |

I have to agree with Devil's Advocate and Jamie R on both that gay and polygamous marriages should be legal, and that neither of these should be compared to bestiality or pedifiliaty (is that even a word???). As far as gay or polygamous marriages being moral or immoral, that is a matter of opinion. Not everyone shares the same morals. For some people, divorce or interacial marriage is immoral, so should those be outlawed also? This is supposed to be a free country, and I think that consenting adults should be allowed to join in these types of marriages, should they so desire. |

Marriage between consenting adults should be legal, so in my opinion both gay marriage and polygamy should be legal. Obviously, beastiality and marrying children should be illegal. Only an idiot would equate gay marriage and polygamy with those things. Does gay marriage scare you or something? |

You say, "it seems like the reason these things are illegal are because theyre immoral ".
By whose standards? What makes you the ultimate judge? |

Yes if the rules and laws of the land is changed to please gay couples and let them marry then the laws would have to be changed for everyone.... Your point is true and that is why we should stay with the law of the land that has been since the first day of time.... Man and Woman. |
