Iowa: Gay OK, just don't let in any Polygamists

In hearings before the Iowa Supreme Court on Tuesday (in Varnum v Brien), Justices spent some time fixated on fears that allowing gay marriage in the state would open the door to something far worse - polygamy. I assume the Justices aren't Christians since if they were following the Bible they'd allow polygamy long before gay marriage.

Who do You want to rescue You?

Listening to news reports of Boy Scouts in Iowa springing in to action to save their mates I thought about some of the persecution the Scouts have come under. I also thought about the FLDS kids and many of their parents. If you were hurt and trapped from a tornado who would you want around to rescue you? An average US teen? Boy Scout? Teen from FLDS?

There are some terrific teens in the US who are not Scouts and who are not part of the FLDS, but if I needed rescuing I'd hope for a Scout or one of the teens from the FLDS. How about you?
