Screw who you like but keep it simple. We can't afford Bible-based marriages.
What about in the case of groups of gay men and women? Or in the case of one woman with multiple men? Certainly not "bible based." Should they be allowed to get married under the law?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
