    If a little bakery in Oregon can be fined then Wal-Mart in Slidell. should be fined for refusing to bake a Rebel Flag cake.

    And yet this non-Mormon polygamist found new hope in the SC decision and why wouldn't he? Polygamy is just another form of marriage. If it shouldn't be claimed only by a man and woman, then why just 2 people? What are your grounds for being against polygamy or polyamory?

    Marrying a sheep. Nobody brought up that absurdity but you, just like you discuss space aliens and other far fetched non-realistic concepts.

    "I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now, for me as a Christian…it is also a sacred union. God’s in the mix."

    PBO to Rick Warren in 2008. Just sayin.

    Justice Sotomayer said she would vote against legalizing gay marriage at her confirmation hearing.

    There was laws against gay marriage even longer ago than 150 years. Laws against polygamy are valid only if marriage is defined as one man - one woman. Now that that concept has been thrown out the window so is the validity of laws against polygamy.

    You know Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are doing pretty well in the polls, is it because America is tired of the status quo? Or is it because these 2 people, on complete different sides of the spectrum, are the only 2 candidates telling the truth as they see it? Trump more so than Sanders, they don't seem to have a filter and say what's on their mind. I agree with Trump on a few things, I agree with Sanders on a lot of things, is this common? To have 2 outliers who will never even be on ballots doing this will in polls? Or Are polls just garbage?

    I think there's a lot of validity to this. When the conversation turns to politics, how many times have any of us heard - or said ourselves - that we are tired of the same old bullshit. Now we have, on both sides, an anti-establishment candidate. Will we find out how many Americans have the courage to do what they say they'd love to do, and actually vote one of these guys in?
