- It irks me when people who are against my right to marry another man do stuff like this. - Dano Jun 24, 11:42 34
  - Since so many people like to go with the slippery slope argument for why they're against gay marriage...when is someone going to take it the other way - Jim Jun 24, 11:58 26
    - divorce should never be a crime - - 'lia Jun 24, 12:06 2
      - Jim isn't being serious, he's making it an analogy to the arguments used against gay marriage. -- nm - Andie Jun 24, 12:09
      - . That's the point you must've missed. -- nm - Jim Jun 24, 12:09
    - Divorce and adultery WERE crimes once upon a time in the 60s and 70s. - TWuG Jun 24, 12:05 11

        Well, I'm doing it now. - znufrii Jun 24, 12:16 3
        
        Whenever I finally get to NY to meet you, if ever, I'm so buying you a beer for this whole divorce saga. - TFox Jun 24, 12:17 1

      - No, they weren't. -- nm - mara Jun 24, 12:07 3
        
        I was off a bit, but in 1949 or 1950 South Carolina (how appropriate) finally declared divorce legal. Adultery as a crime is still on the books - TWuG Jun 24, 12:17 2
        
        If you could link to one such statute, I'd be ever so grateful. -- nm - mara Jun 24, 12:20 1

    - If I were caesar, applying criminal penalties to adultery would be among my first acts. -- nm - Max Jun 24, 12:04 5
      - [deleted] 4
        
        maybe, but the application of penalties is lacking. -- nm - Max Jun 24, 12:07 3

        $5000 and 90 days in jail, and forfeiture of all assets in a divorce. -- nm - Max Jun 24, 12:11 1

    - i always say this, if Elizabeth Taylor can get married, what? 8 times, and still be a beloved national icon, - Andie Jun 24, 12:00 3
      - This is about as illogical as many of the arguments against it. I award you an internet. :) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 24, 12:09 2
        
        laughing - Andie Jun 24, 12:12 1
        
        Yeah, I got that after I posted :) I totally agree. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 24, 12:15

  - especially when...they're gay. -- nm - Mel - Wolf Pack of One Jun 24, 11:45
  - It's the "institution of marriage" that's sacred, not individual marriages. Duh. -- nm - TWuG Jun 24, 11:45
  - It's a bizarre form of idealism, mixed with the conviction that only appearances actually matter, mixed with "ends justifies the means" thinking. -- nm - mara Jun 24, 11:44
