please explain. how can you be for one and not the other. why should gay marriage be legal while others not. it seems none of you guys have any argument for gay marriage and against others forms. the arguments you guys pose for gay marriage, like that guys signature could be applied to polygamy in the exact same manner. replace the word gay with the word polygamy or incest in his sig. its the same thing, but some reason i dont think he would have as many pats on the back for such a great sig he has if he did that. with the arguments you present in support of gay marriage, you cannot by extension possibly be against polygamy, incest or what have you. you simply cant. |
It's a derivative of the slippery slope fallacy. You take one element of the opposition argument and stretch it out to ridiculous extremes in an attempt to invalidate it. For the purposes of the gay marriage debate, the differences between a monogamous gay relationship and other non-conventional forms of love are significant enough to merit their exclusion from the terms of debate, and introducing them is an example of the slippery slope fallacy.
