The institution of marriage is beginning to resemble a river. The broader it gets, the shallower it gets.

Bookslinger – I have heard many single LDS women, when feeling depressed, express similar sentiments.

Adam – can’t say it surprises me. I expect the forms and kinds of marriage to multiply, even as marriage itself crumples. I see a kind of similarity to how so-called Liberal Christianity expands wider and wider, even while its churches wither on the vine.

And now, the conservative case for polyamory: it will make marriage more stable(!)

Or to reduce the number of births over-all. Or to make adults more miserable by denying them the stability of marriage. Etc.

MC, another way of stating that would be to say Satan’s goal is to reduce the number of people being born into comfortable situations, and to increase the number of people being born into miserable circumstances.

Children being born outside of stable marriages certainly correlates, statistically speaking, with more unhappiness, such as drugs, crime, abuse, etc.

The goal is not to bring about polyamory. The goal is to eliminate the family as a meaningful unit of society, creating a blank slate for reordering Utopia properly.

JM: I was once at a Singles Family Home Evening, as the only male among seven unmarried women (all divorced or widowed actually). We started out with a pitch-in dinner. They all brought food. Had a picture taken of us as a group.

Adam, it’s about incrementalism, slippery slope, and margin creep.

From 35 to 15 years ago the “Gay Rights” movement would have vehemently denied in public that SSM was on their agenda.

In fact, for the last 35 years or so, the same people who are now pushing for gay marriage (progressives, social liberals, etc) were telling us that marriage wasn’t needed at all; that it was “just a piece of paper.”

Zen, there’s a card on http://www.PostSecret.com
that expresses just that.
The photos are removed every week, but the following link to the actual .jpg will likely still work:
