"Legalize polygamy, federal study urges..."

Here's some reasons why progressive Canadians will support polygamy.

1) Once you disconnect marriage from human biology, there's no good reason to restrict it to two persons. If two men can be legal parents, then so can two men and a woman.

2) Same-sex rights advocates argue that society must sanction same-sex unions so that the children of same-sex couples do not feel discriminated against. The same argument applies to polygamy.

3) If swinging must be tolerated, so must polygamy (what, "a one-night stand is splendid, but commitment is immoral"?)

4) "The state has no place in the bedrooms of our nation" (remember that one).

5) Paul Martin supports polygamists' rights. (Well maybe not yet, but he will go to the wall for them once the Supreme Court tells him what to think.)

6) Only hateful polyphobes would deny polygamists their rights.

7) Legalizing polygamy would be yet another great way to show that we are a tolerant, generous, diverse, and vibrant post-Christian society.

The Liberals have claimed they are concerned about child care.

Then they say they are concerned about abortion which seems to about child killing.

Now they can support polygamy and tell us about how many children can be produced.

Wow! They can be on every side of the children's issues.

One parent, good!
Two parents, better!
Three-or-more, better still!

The only thing that could be possibly better would be simply handing our children over to Liberal child-rearing experts, who would careful nourish them in state-funded, climate-controlled, ideologically-purified daycare/nightcare 24/7 care facilities!
