Or, as my friend Cedric in New Orleans put it: "This is pants-on-head stupid."

QuoteIn a brief filed with the Supreme Court last week, the Obama administration slammed the unusual legal argument now key in the movement against gay marriage: that gay couples cannot become accidentally pregnant and thus do not need access to marriage.
Well, that settles it. We'll have to go annul the marriages of everyone who hasn't got kids.
Oh no, does that mean that since I had a hysterectomy, I can't get married? :(
Already done. What God hath joined, no man shall put asunder...unless the State gets an injunction and dissolves it retroactively. You know, because God made a mistake.

Yep. I went to the man with the laser in 1998. All of my marriages have been farces because of this. The sanctity of ALL BUT ONE OF THEM is ROONT.
The Lord spoke to my heart about this. I mean, I prayed on it all night and He said to me, he says "Juniper (that's His pet name for me), Juniper, you have a callin'. I'm tellin' you that you need to keep my word on earth. I do NOT WANT ladies marrying ladies and men marrying men. I'm getting really tired of being forced into sending blessings down and joining these people in Holy Matrimony because you haven't got this under control yet. This needs to stop. My magical union-dust is supposed to be reserved for ONE man and ONE woman. If you keep on letting this go on, there won't be any marriage-dust left for the straight people who NEED it."
So I'm sorry but He, in His most merciful wisdom is TELLIN' us what to do and we're just not LISTENIN'. He's warnin' us of Things To Come and we're not gonna like it if we disobey.

If I find out here's an afterlife and I'm married to my first husband FOR ALL ETERNITY in it, I will kill a motherfucker.
It's okay because He also stated what man has bound on earth is also bound in heaven and vise-versa. So basically, we can do whatever we want and God has to bless that shit.

SWEET. I'm going to use that to go get gay-married.
WAIT! That's not...YOU CAN'T DO THAT!

No, no we are not, but we are getting better at taking tests apparently.

And everybody who CAN'T have kids. Like old people.

Actually, we do seem to have gotten significantly smarter, and it is now leveling off. I'll give you three guesses at what the increase in average IQ scores is related to.

Yeah, it's 99% derp, but it beats teevee.
First we make access to birth control difficult in as many ways as we can without being so obvious as to make the average person care, then we scream about how marriage is necessary because straight people can't keep their genitals in check. Makes sense to me.

The wheels are in motion to effectively BAN the pill (and all other means of female-employed BC) in AZ.
And then our politicians makes noises about "If Those People insist on having loads of kids, how can the taxpayers
1 be responsible for them?"
The implied message, of course, is "CLOSE THOSE LEGS, YOU FILTHY SLUTS".
1 "Taxpayer" in Arizona is code for "those people to whom I give sweetheart deals, with the money we said we'd use on roads and schools".
