Starting with a strawman? The SC is not ruling on whether or not gay marriage must be sanctioned in every state. They are ruling on whether or not Gay marriage can be banned in any one of the States.No. Clearly you don't know what a valid legal precedent is.
Ok, one more time.
Lets say the SC court rules that gay marriage must be sanctioned in every state, ok so far?
the basis of that ruling is equal treatment under the law and that state laws prohibiting gay marriage are discriminatory. got it?
Now, a same sex sibling couple who want to marry to reduce their tax burden appeal to a court using the gay marriage ruling as precedent. They say that they are being denied equal treatment under the law and that prohibiting their marriage is discriminatory. with me so far?
Now, what legal argument will you bring forth to prohibit them from marrying?
Will you tell them that "its just not right" "that its incest" ? their rebuttal, "who says its not right"? "why do we have to live by YOUR definition of right and wrong"? We aren't going to have sex so its not incest.
Now, what will the court do? We all know the answer, you fools just refuse to acknowledge it.
Yes, the basis of that decision will likely be based on equal treatment under the law and that state laws prohibiting gay marriage are discriminatory.
No, incest is against the law. Any court in the land would throw you out. Just as heterosexual marriages has never been a basis for incest neither will gay marriages ever be a basis for incest. Gay and/or hetero marriages has nothing to do with the issue of incest.
That said, if singles, pluralists, and incest depraved people want to get together and sue the feds for discrimination in the form of tax benefits for hetero and gay marriages... yes they have a chance that the court will hear that case and perhaps even establish that tax benefits for married couples is discriminatory.
But your not gonna be able to use gay marriage as a basis for making incest legal. Not gonna happen.
Additionally, you are incorrect. Over turning inter-racial marriages is a basis for overturning gay marriages. Inter-racial marriage bans was based on bigotry against blacks. Gay bans is based on bigotry against gays. Incest bans is not based on bigotry. Incest bans are based on harm to the individuals involved and harm to the potential progeny.
I have given you a logical realistic scenario that will play out in our court system if the SC rules as you want it to. It won't just be sibling marriage, it will be multiple person marriage of all kinds and they will use the exact same arguments that you are using today for SSM.
you can spin and deny and rationalize until the cows come home, but it will happen.
You have provided an opinion of yours. We are pointing out it is neither logical or realistic.
Meanwhile I believe this is day 15 of you still arguing about gay marriage after telling us all you had more important things to discuss.
As I have said many times, liberalism is a mental disease, there is no other explanation for its inherent contradictions and falacies.
Yeah you do lie a lot
Kaz- 4/29/15:
and we spend hours arguing about gay marriage???? WTF is wrong with us? And yes, I am guilty of it too.
I have made my last post on a gay thread. I hope many of you will follow suit. Let the court do its job and live with the rulings
