Wow, no one spoke up about you bringing her up rather than letting her fade into memory. Perhaps even they realize she won't willingly go away - quietly or not.

"Immorality" has been the norm for centuries. Arranged marriages, incestual marriages, marriages of convenience etc. have been around for centuries. "Morality" in marriage has been long gone.

Morality in marriage depends on each cultures norms. 1000 years ago when arranged, incestual marriages were the norm all over the place, there was nothing consifered immoral about it. Looking back at it now, we seem to have a different view of marriage, so those norms seem outrageous.

Maybe you should be more worried about the 50% divorce rate and less about loving gay couples professing their love for one another if you really want to protect marriage.

Add North Carolina to the list. The Solid South is starting to crack.
So what is the "line in the sand" that cannot be crossed? It seems to me that you're advocating an anything goes attitude.
Call me a fuddy duddy but there have to be some standards.

Who sers the standard? You?
Society, courts, and legislatures.
But the position of the posters seems to be anarchy.

Seems to me if thats the standard then gay marriage isn't immoral.
It's legal. Let's leave it at that.
But is there a marriage that would be considered immoral?

The line in the sand is consent. Non-consensual marriage (and sex) is immoral. That covers all coercion, pedophilia (a minor is defined as being unable to consent), and John Cornyn's box turtle.

The makers obviously hold a certain point of view, but it remains quite good for those who don't obsess over such things. And I still don't fully trust Oleg Kalugin.

You've said it. As long as both people consent, nothing else should matter.

Let's start with spousal abuse, adultery, absenteeism, neglect, bad parenting, etc. I'd say heteros have that on lock down, champ.
1. They've been weighing in for years and will continue to do so.
2. On the contrary, the position is equal opportunity to get it either right or wrong.

She's doubtless planning to induce more psychopaths to shoot congressmen.

But what about attitudes towards that behavior?
Abuse - Ray Rice gets 2 games and the NFL calls the punishment "appropriate". People will be cheering him come September.
Adultery - lost the stigmata years ago.
Absenteeism - see pro athletes and babies in every port.
Neglect - Not my problem. I have me to worry about.
Bad Parenting - That's what nannies are for. We're going to Cabo. Do you like our 2 comma lifestyle?
Yep - every instance you've cited is immoral behavior. But do we care anymore? Has "live and let live" led to increases in immoral behavior??
