Glad to Live in a Free Society

I was watching Fox news the other day with my co-blogger Mazur and they were saying that Washington State is introducing legislation to annul marriages if the couple does not have a baby within the first 3 years of the marriage.

We were shocked to see this and immediately assumed it was introduced by some Pat Robertson/Pat Buchanan type, maniacally serious about overpopulating the country with as many non-foreigners as possible. Mazur was so disgusted that he immediately changed the channel before we were engulfed in rage.

It turns out that this ammendment was introduced by proponents of same-sex marriage. WOW!
The catch is that they don't actually want the ammendment to pass into law. They just want to point out the hypocricy of those who think that gay people shouldn't get married because they can't procreate, the sole purpose for humans to exist.

So if this passes, straight people will be forced to procreate or they are just as much sinners as gay people. Which according to fundamentalist Christain values is true, since condoms are evil and everytime anyone has sex it should be for the intention of procreation.

For the first time in the history of logic, legislation is being introduced that those who are promoting it, in this case the Washington Defense of Marriage Alliance, don't want it to become law. The only problem is, what if it does become law.
