And Now ... Polygamy?
—Albert Mohler
Readers of the October 8 edition of USA Today must have been shocked to read Jonathan Turley's article promoting the legalization of polygamy. Then again, it is becoming harder and harder to shock the American people. In any event, the article serves to prove the point that acceptance of homosexual marriage will open the floodgates to the normalization of nearly any and all sexual relationships.
Turley, Professor of Law at George Washington University, is a well-known legal scholar. As he sees it, laws against polygamy run counter to the logic of the constitution and lack credibility in the context of today's sexual revolution. "Individuals have a recognized constitutional right to engage in any form of consensual sexual relationship with any number of partners," he argues.
This is what we must expect if the advocates of same-sex marriage have their way--sexual anarchy. This article is a sign of things to come.
