If they were, and capable of signing legal contracts and understanding them, I don't see the issue.
I'm sure someone would find a way to get animals to get civil rights, in way, to get them to be able to make their own decisions some how. I personally find liberalism* disgusting in that sense, some people take it too far. When I say 'take it too far' I am not referring to blacks or gays... More so to bestiality or incest.
*I really mean Ultra-liberalism

Screensaver wrote:This one of the reasons I oppose liberalism. I am in favor of same-sex marriage and LGBT rights but that is a single issue which will no longer exist when equality is fully implemented. Liberalism on the other hand is a dangerous ideology (just as dangerous as conservatism). It moves like a glacier down a slippery slope. There are already some movements (which sadly seem to be growing) in liberalism that support things such as legalizing bestiality, pedophilic relationships, and other sick things. As long as the liberals maintain their grip on the LGBT community there will be no stopping this slippery slope. The only way to stop it is to sever the liberal movement's grip on LGBT rights by getting more and more non-liberals to prominently support LGBT rights. However this is easier said than done.

A sign of the times. Freedom and consent to do the most abominable things. We should start learning to live with it.

As far as I can tell, Liberals are pushing for more and more civil liberties (which isn't necessarily a good or bad thing) and eventually, this is going to come up. Years ago, inter racial marriages were unacceptable, and I'm sure gay marriage was just...unthinkable at the point. Now, we have inter racial marriage, and gay marriage is starting to rise in most of the world except for a few nations that are refusing to let go.
But what next? What about a man and his dog? Should they get married? Or what about a man and his son? Or a brother and sister? When is it too much? How far are people going to be allowed? What should be allowed? I'm personally undecided on the issue of what a marriage really means, but what do you guys think about sibling, inter special or other kinds of bizarre civil unions?

Given that points of view rarely change on NSG, I don't see any "imposition".

Exactly. It would be like a person marrying a leg of lamb. Or a mushroom. It is even more absurd than marrying a gold bar or a piece of antique furniture, because the dead thing will quickly change its nature.
Unless it was kept in the freezer.
Officer Flatfoot: "Good evening Mr Tess-un-err. Good evening sir. Is your wife at home?"
Tsuntion: "Yes she is. May I ask what this is about?"
Officer Flatfoot: "We have recieved reports about a possible crime committed against your wife, and wish to interview her with a view to--"
Tsuntion: "Sure. Come on in."
Officer Flatfoot: "Thank you, mister er, sir."
Tsuntion: "No problem. She's just through here."
[Officer Flatfoot follows Tsuntion to the cellar]
Officer Flatfoot: "Pardon me sir, but is your wife present here? This seems to be a storage area."
Tsuntion: "She's just over there, in the deep freeze. To keep her from rotting."
Officer Flatfoot: "I never wanted to be a cop. I wanted to be a lumberjack! Well I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK! I sleep all night and I work all day!!"

Dracoria wrote:Person012345 wrote:I thought the conversation I was replying to was about breeding?
Only partially. The main issue of the entire topic is marriage; breeding is only seemingly a concern for incestuous relations, though (as homosexual and zoophilic breeding attempts won't accomplish anything). However, if you read up you will find that in most western nations, the breeding isn't restricted anyway as long as it is voluntary and of the appropriate age; it is the marriage that is legally restricted.
Either way though, banning marriage based on one's genes kind of plays into the hands of those who would use the same to restrict homosexual relations (no XX-XX and XY-XY coupling!). Kiind of plays into the hands of those who talk about the slippery slope, too. One of the reasons I say eh, just let people do as they'll do, and try to adjust the legal code to keep up with the odd inheritance issues that may result.
As it takes a number of generations of repeated inbreeding for issues to pop up, I really don't see the issue in such marriages and relationships aside from the whole 'EEEWWWWWW' factor which we shouldn't use to determine who can get together anyway.
