I don't know what on track is. When people discuss gay marriage in the news, they do not just discuss it in a vacume either.

Also, I think some people gay marriage to the civil rights movements, and there was those that argued for and against it.

Dini basically seemed to be saying that she thought it doubtful that gay marriage would be approved by most people, because the nation has not progressed that much. She gave her examples.

I did expand on that, because those matters do matter if we think gay marriage will realistically be allowed to occur, and if we should focus on it.

Re: the polygamy matter, the conservatives say if you have allow gay marriage, then you have to allow polygamy. I can't think of any logical or rational arguement against them on that, so I think they're right.

I was also not aware that threads had specific targets per say. Other threads go way off target as well.

I think things are ok unless people begin abusing others, and then it needs to be stopped. But I've seen no one abusive anyone on this thread.
