Because pedophilia and bigamy are illegal? Dumbass.

You know, is polygamy something that really should be illegal? I mean sure, it's pretty unfair to the partners, and tends to be financially disaterous for those involved, but is it something that the government needs to step in and forbid? Unlike pedophillia (and beastiality and necrophillia, like these Santorum-sucking fuckwits always like to bring up) polygamy involved consenting adults, and it's also something the vast, vast majority of the country probably won't even consider.
Discuss.

If polygamy were treated the same as other marriages, then all partners would get the tax benefits, right? And as for it being unfair, well, who exactly is it unfair to? You can have multiple husbands as well as multiple wives.

another \"slippery slope\" argument. Joy.
I know somebody online who's into polyamory. She's got two partners, that know about each other. It seems it works well for some people. But that's a whole other argument.

I'm tired of arguing with people who refuse to listen, so I'm just going to pretend I'm punching you in the face.

Stoppit with the slippery slope fallacies.
And re: polygamy, I agree that it shouldn't be illegal. If they want to have a polygamous relationship it's none of nobody else's buisness.

Marriage is a contract, not a \"holy thing\".

Why couldn't you marry a 12 year old?
Ask the state legislators in the child-bride states. By the way, don't those tend to be in Jesusland?
Why can't I marry my boyfriend and girlfriend?
I have the feeling that King David would let you.

Marrying a 12 year is ILLEGAL. Gay marariage is only allowed in ONE state of the USA. You can't marry your boyfriend and girlfriend because it is ILLEGAL to marry two people at the SAME EXACT TIME in other words you can't get married to someone if you are already married. so Gay marriage is only allowed in one state and the rest is Civil Unions and that is fucking shit because they don't get the same benifits that a marriage that was sanctioned by the state gives you

It appears that Catowman is as incapable of producing a valid argument against gay marriage as the rest of her ilk. So, like them, she is trying to change the subject to something that she hopes will invoke a sense of disgust. She thinks she can then use that disgust to sway people to her side.
Its not working Catwoman. Your opponents have the sense to realize that a=/=b. Stay on topic, and find a reason to support your position that does not involve Bible-thumping, made-up statistics or inane shrieks of, "won't some one PLEASE think of the children?!"
If it helps, remember that if you find such a reason, you will be the first in the history of civilization.

"Why couldn't you marry a 12 year old? GAY marriage is legal"
"Marriage being one of those holy things!"
Non-sequitur. And the fact you use the concept of below-legal age of consent marriage as an argument against gay marriage speaks volumes about you fundies as a whole. After all,
your Bible doesn't say word one in condemnation of paedophilia.
'Why couldn't you marry a 12 year old?' That alone - as a (so-called) argument - is
very telling.
And speaks volumes about the mindset of those on Ruptured Retards as a whole.
