Selena, your BFF Taylor Swift is clearly too busy making music and having feelings right now to give it to you straight, so I'm here for you. You need to know that riding a Segway, like dating the Bieb, makes you look like a dumbass. Please do not squander all your "not Miley Cyrus" cred by doing dumbass x 2.

When a religious organization does anything other than worship, and functions in tbe public sphere with employees who are not members of their cult, they should be expected to comply with the law like all other non-religion employers do.

You really should ask yourself why you get so wound up about the peaceful behavior of consenting adults in hypothetical relationships you are not at all involved in.

Only Godless commies use adverbs correctly. USA! USA! USA!

Nah. I have offered no anecdotes. You should ask yourself why you care so much about the hypothetical relationships of consenting adults with whom you are not personally having sex. And you really do seem to have difficulty with the difference between correlation and causation.

Correlation is not causation. We have all sorts of laws addressing crimes against victims. We do not need a law criminalizing peaceful consenting adult relationships.

No, you're not. You're making vague unsupported generalizations referring to hypothetical bad situations.

Nah. Marriages are legal agreements, like corporations are. Courts are empowered to dissolve them both and may intervene in their functions. Corportate entities that include more than two human participants are already as complex as any marriage agreement that includes the same number of participants.

I hope nobody smart enough to appreciate Jezebel's editorial perspective really thought the Duck Dynasty argle bargle was anything other than a ploy to furher strenghthen the brand.

Nah. Anecdotes are not trends.

This makes me glad, but I am ashamed that our nation experiences this "first" in the year 2013.

Complicated ownership issues are not good enough reason for government prohibition. Otherwise most corporate structures would be as unlawful as polygamy is.

Correlation = / = Causation

Exactly. We have laws addressing child abuse, kidnapping, and exploitation. Our governments cannot try to protect people from want they are taught from birth, otherwise many religious ideas would be suspect. Laws can only address BEHAVIOR. If nobody's rights are being violated, the behavior should not be

If multiple consenting adults want to enter into a legal agreement for cohabitation, shared property ownership, mutual risk, and cooperation for child-care, then nobody’s rights are being violated. Maybe they’ll have some awesome sexytime too. The assumption that polygamy is inherently wrong is a fallacy.

We have

Miley Cyrus is the pop culture version of the obnoxious almost-teen who insists on sitting with the grownups and annoying the FUCK out of us instead of staying at the kid's table where she belongs. Beyoncé is the pop culture version of the adult we all want to be more like.

I have not trusted him ever since he let the Germans seize his monkey.
