You know, oddly enough, the "slippery slope argument" DOES hold water. . .

[xiphias]

One of the arguments which people used to argue against interracial marriage was that it was a slippery slope. If you let blacks and whites marry, why, then, eventually, GAYS might be able to marry, too!

And they DID. Just two generations later!

Now people are arguing that gay marriage is going to be a slippery slope leading to allowing polygamy.

Well.

What of it? If people decide to do that, I feel confident that they will do so because they will believe that it is morally and ethically correct to do so.

I'm just waiting until it's legal for wife and I to marry a consenting dodecahedron.
