Discussion: Carson Warns 'More Groups' Will Want Marriage Equality If Gays Get It

It’s funny that I only ever hear Republicans making this argument, and my answer to all of them is basically the same. If Ben Carson wants the legal right to marry his sister and her dog, then he should stand up for what he believes, lead his own movement and try to convince the rest of us. Nobody else is going to fight Ben Carson’s battles for him.

Actually, that’s the Devil-inspired apostasy that gave us gay marriage. If only race-mixing had never been legalized, we wouldn’t be faced with these problems today.

Snow-white Jesus never said it was okay to breed with inferior species. How can our country survive if we don’t adhere to His Will? How much longer can we disregard the Constitutional imperative to use the Bible as the foundation of all our laws and regulations?

Allowing straight marriage is a slippery slope to allowing gay marriage.

Carson does seem to have a serious bug up his ass with regards to gay people. It makes one wonder what keeps him up at night.

He’s an obvious opportunist, to say the least – but I do have a nagging feeling he’s hiding something. Very large portions of the population fall somewhere between 2 and 5 with regards to the Kinsey Sexual Orientation Scale 1 - 6. One being total heterosexual in true nature and desire, not actual actions; Six being total homosexual in true nature and desire.

Shorter Uncle Ben: “If you treat ‘those’ people equally under the law, well sir, pretty soon everyone will want to be treated equally under the law. We can’t just have everyone being treated equally…why, that’s unAmerican!”

That pathetic huckster and pandering token Bagger has tarnished the term “Ivy League Education” forever.

Bit by the sanity bug? Not possible! But I agree, it is a “fucking lunatic” now and forever.

Carson has again embraced the right’s favorite logical fallacy—the old slippery slope.

What he fails to acknowledge is that those other “groups” are barred from marriage whether they are gay or straight.

If it’s illegal for everyone, there is no constitutional issue as there is with marriage equality.

There has to be a group out there we can feel superior to! Just has to be.

What “More Groups”?
Are dogs and cats going to demand they can get married?
For a neurosurgeon he sure is MATH CHALLENGED.
2 Sexes. Male. Female. That means how many different pairings are there: N+1=3.
Male + Female
Male + Male
Female + Female
DUH!

Most who are that stupid don’t realize it either. But they do realize they don’t wanna be President. Ergo Dr Ben is undergoing some sort of mental logic mixup.

Growing up I always assumed one was either straight or gay and it wasn’t until I got out in the world when I realized most people have varying degrees of same sex attraction.

FYI, I’m a one. :slight_smile:

Edit: After reading the comic in the link provided by Datora I realize I’m a big 'ol zero.

Mr. Carson, spelunking the depths of abject stupidity in spectacular fashion.

Hey! He was talking about groups in the …ahem…plural. Which then opens up factorial style math I believe.

And the groupings get complicated rapidly. it’s a slippery slope coated in Teflon.
During my working days I was a scientist … this sort of math gives me a headache.
I knew a goodly number of MD types. and none understood politics all that well. At least not well enough to want to actually be in elective office. Only one in my acquaintance has opted for that sort of job and he (a very gifted trauma surgeon) is now an Arizona state legislature member in the minority party (democrat) and I doubt he has any aspirations for higher office. Another gifted medical person of my acquaintance, Richard Carmona (democrat) became Surgeon General in the G W Bush administration. He also was a SWAT team member here in Tucson. A man of varied skills.
