I think I'm going to retire from this debate. =P All I can say is that I find it naive if not entirely ignorant to claim that marriage law would go unchanged if heterosexual marriage were to become federally recognized. We do not know what the extent of the repercussions could be. For one thing, the definition of marriage itself would need to changed in order for heterosexual marriages to be recognized, so such a statement is already false. I must admit that I am also dissapointed that no advocate of the federal recognition of homosexual marriage is willing to address the issue of polygamist and other unions becoming federally recognized on the same grounds of homosexuals as a result.

As I've said, all of these are legitimate concerns, but unforunately the advocates of this "cause" do not take the issue seriously enough to even begin addressing them; only in denying their potential.
