Will Those Who Claim To Be Open Minded Actually Be Open Minded One Day?

I see no issue with polygamy either, why do you care what 2 or more consenting adults do with each other. I am not gay (I actually find the thought a little distasteful), I don't have multiple wives (just the one I am quite happy with, not sure I could handle....or afford a second), but it is not my place nor anyone elses to decide what can happen between other consenting adults. Everyone has a right to their opinion, no one has a right to impose their opinion on others when it has no affect on you or anyone else what they choose to do.

2 consenting adults; yeah I hear that all the time.  My guess is you would be okay with 2 consenting adults fighting with each other as long as no one else gets hurt. My guess is you wouldn't be man enough to stop a girl getting beat up by her boyfriend because they consented to fighting and it's not hurting anyone else

Err.. what? Do you know what you are saying? Nanarchy is saying that he doesn't not mind what 2 consenting adults do, if he mentioned 'hurt' it's not physical, it's an expression because they are literally not hurting anyone, so why do objectors care if it's not directly hurting them?

You know boxing exists right? 2 consenting adults beating the crap out of each other for sport and other people's entertainment. It's in their right to do this and neither is being forced into it but as soon as the ref notices any kind of trouble for one of the boxers in the knowledge that it could hurt perminantly, he stops it.

Now a fight between a man and a woman in boxing would never happen. Let's say in public it is happening, both want to fight and they start going at it. Morally good people might stop the fight regardless of gender to stop people getting hurt. They'd try and get these people to work out their differences in ways that can physically injure people.

I'm not entirely sure what you point was above here but it came off really badly. Yes it's not great a man lost his job but it's just a job. He will get another, one less in the public eye and less open to critisism, he got the job because he was well qualified so his career is not ruined. Banning perminantly someone from being able to marry the person they love is worse. No one has an issue with those that give to gay rights organisations because it's usually in the movement for freedom for all people so we are all equal.
