Supreme Court Same Sex Marriage Argumet

[Anima]

Scalia is an idiot.

So shall we move on to Alito's question regarding polygamy and polyandry? (I am trying to go in accordance with the issues brought up in the audio).

Wow! Crickets. I thought this thread was going to take off like a rocket given all of the argument and discussion concerning same sex marriage in the news. I even thought it being brought up by catholic was going to be a real, get out the pitch forks to attack the catholic moment...

Wait... Am I being ostracized in order to get my views to conform?

Regarding general definition of marriage which will lead into the subject of polygamy/polyandry.

Under a procreation centric definition of marriage (argued by respondents) the qualities of the parties to a marriage are easily determined:
1. How many people are needed to procreate = 2
2. What genders do the people need to be = Opposite
3. How old do they need to be = Of pubescent age or older (13+)

Under commitment centric definition of marriage (argued by petitioners) the qualities of the parties to a marriage are determined as:
1. How many people are willing to commit = greater than 2, less than 8 billion
2. What gender do the people need to be = whatever genders are willing to commit to one another.
3. How old do they need to be = of age to agree to commitment (which is over the age of 5)
