Same Sex Marraige: The Slippery Slope...

Lets uppose we pass legislation to allow same sex marriage in the USA just for the sake of argument.

Now two brothers decide that they want to get married because they live together anyway and want to take advantage of the tax break. Why would that be wrong? They are not going to have sex just take advantage of the tax laws. They can always get a divorce if they find someone else.

So now brothers can get married. What about sisters? Same arguments apply so, okay lets let them do that too.

Here comes the problem child. Now that we let brothers and sisters have same sex marriages, what about brothers and sisters? Can't discriminate against them either. But wait they can't have children because that is incest. Hmmm, no problem we just rewrite the incest laws.

So now anyone can get married to anyone else, which is fair by mans standards. No discrimination for ANY reason.

So two friends decide to live together but they don't want to get married. After 10 years one of them decides to move to another state. The other one sues the first one because they live in a Common Law State and the statues say after 7 years they are married. Don't think that can't happen. It does already as there are laws on the books in common law states that protect women and since we have to be fair...BINGO.




I know what you are going to say, that law is a myth. Well check the law suits that have been filed in those states and you will see that they do happen. Some win some lose.

All the marriage laws would need to be examined. This is a can of worms without bring God into it. Do we really want to go down this path?
