Polygamist to Fight for Marriage Rights

Or I should say marriage rights between more than two people. Here we go, it was only a matter of time before all these other different groups started fighting for their rights also. Once you start down this path where does it stop?

Along the same lines, Henkel asserted, “marriage controllers assert that ‘society has a right’ to control marriage, that ‘democracy’ justifies infringing individuals’ rights for the supposed good of the people,” he said. “They frantically purport that society is imperiled without marriage control.”

Marriage controllers is a phrase he coined to compare this issue to gun control. This is just the beginning. While this won’t go anywhere, this is just the first attempt. The way it works is that they will keep coming back and coming back gaining more support and getting louder. Until they are able to affect change.

 Henkel predicted last year that “freely consenting, adult, non-abusive, marriage-committed polygamy is the next civil rights battle” after same-sex “marriage.”

He called the one man-one-woman model “marital Marxism,” saying it was established by the Catholic Church during the Middle Ages.

“You don’t have to be a pro-polygamist to see that ‘marriage control’ infringes the individual rights of consenting adults,” the activist told Cybercast News Service on Wednesday.

It’s a civil rights issue, how can we deny polygamists their civil rights? This is the problem I have with the redefining of the word marriage, it opened up all these doors and it won’t stop here. It may take years or decades but the fight will carry on until the definition of marriage is completely eroded. Notice he said the next civil rights battle, he didn’t say the last battle.
