If the NC Rightwing Taliban Want to Save Hetero Marriage, They'd Outlaw DIVORCEI wonder how many of the cruel NC voters who pulled the lever to ban gay marriage are actually divorced from their first spouses? How many showed their "reverence" for marriage by ending their own marriages? How many are like Newtie Pie, having inflicted selfish wounds on their own spouses in the name of their own self-interest? You see, Rightwing Christians will NEVER vote to deny themselves the right to do wrong. They LIVE to do wrong in their own pathetic lives. They cheat on their spouses, beat their kids, divorce left and right. Divorce is higher in the Bible Belt than in anywhere else in the nation... But the American Taliban believe that if they can keep SOMEONE ELSE from having a right, this suddenly erases all of their own sins. It doesn't matter how awful they are as human beings; they are "more moral" because even if they can't control themselves they can control people they don't even know. If they want to sanctify marriage, they should completely outlaw divorce. Never gonna happen. But anyone who voted against marriage in NC is a lying, hypocritical sociopath. That is all....

1. Bad idea
outlawing divorce would lead to a huge jump in violence against women.

2. I'm not advocating it
What I'm saying is that if the American Taliban really wants to make hetero marriage sacred, wouldn't they focus their attention on the people actually destroying hetero marriage? Wouldn't they want to police heteros themselves? Denying gays the right to marry will do NOTHING to save the horrific state of hetero marriage. That's the point. |

4. They should outlaw divorce and adultery!!
Both are specifically mentioned as sins in the Bible, which nowhere mentions anything about being gay as being a sin.
But, that would require them to make sense and be rational. Not gonna happen. |

6. Rational? We don't need no stinkin' rational!
I don't want divorce or adultery to be outlawed, of course. But since those cretins regularly troll DU I figured I'd give 'em a little food for thought. And you're right. Jesus never mentioned homosexuality, but he did talk about the poor 400 times. Those who voted to outlaw (some) marriage also think it's a sin to help the poor. They have their own personal Jesus. And he's a motherfucker. |

5. Didn't N.C. just outlaw divorce.
The constitutional amendment that N.C approved didn't say that "marriage is between a man and a woman at a time ". Sorry folks, you married her, you keep her.

7. Or him. As the case may be.
That would be funny if they inadvertently are denying themselves the Bobble Belt's favorite hetero marital activity: divorce. |
