SSM Plebiscite

[mateinone]

For what it's worth I agree with you, but surely incestuous relationships or possible marriages are wholly irrelevant to the current debate, as no one is proposing any change to the law in that regard, nor is it foreseeable that any change will be proposed in the future.
I have no problem with people opposing SSM for any reason which they see fit, the ability to hold an opinion is at the heart of a free society.

Yes you are right.
The ONLY relevance it has is to show that people do have opinions on relations between adults.
That it is ignorant of most to suggest that they don't judge 2 consenting adults, when I think that most would in the situation I have put forward.

IMO only by understanding that we do in fact judge, can we then begin to appreciate that people may form a different judgment than ourselves.
We assume that because we would vote "YES" if pressed, that it shows we are choosing to have no right to judge 2 consenting humans.
In fact it shows that we are judging and choosing validation in an specific scenario.

My only part in this debate has been to show that people pass judgment based on their own compasses and their own morals on the subject and that is okay.
Having an opinion is okay.

Intolerance towards people having an opposite view is of course bigotry.

But it is also a reason that the debate should never determine the validity of marriage.
That has to be done through the method that generally all laws are changed.
