02/15/2004 Archived Entry: "Gay Marriage"

Gay marriages are all the rage right now. People are raging for and against it all. I'm actually surprised that so many people are getting so excited over it on both sides. Personally, I think the age of gay marriages is very near, but it really isn't a huge deal.

I'm surprised that there isn't more attention given to polygamous marriages. It seems to me that should be legalized as well. Consider the long history of having multiple wives. Unlike gay marriage, there is enormous historical precedent to polygamy. Occasionally people will respond to this by saying, "Yes, but not in traditional western culture." Fine. Same could be said of gay marriage. In truth the Mormons are very much a western cultural phenomena with links to polygamy. Also, America is more than just western culture these days.
