There will be only one debate if gay marriage is upheld: Will polygamy or child-marriage be next? My vote is for polygamy. That might be a good thing for some people, but you're delusional if you think that this stops at gay marriage.

this is a meme that the anti-gay marriage people like to cling to. the options aren't "draw a line here or erase the line entirely". one can choose to move the line. I dont' for a second buy the argument that allowing same-sex marriages opens the floodgates for people marrying their moms, sisters and dogs.
You realize that your exact same argument was made by those who opposed interracial marriage. In fact, you can replace the phrase "same-sex" with "interracial" in nearly every current argument and you'd have a carbon copy of the argument that was made a few decades ago....
