Hmm...I put a quote from Ben Carson in post #91. Also mentioned an Australian pollie (Cory Bernardi) who made almost the exact same comments, and ending up resigning over it (which, better or worse, suggests something about our different communities!).
Like I said, it's not them saying 'Gay marriage is the same as bestiality' but they both go the 'this is the thin edge of a wedge which could lead to bestiality' route. To me, the manner in which they do that is either stategic or an admission that they see both as sinful, and therefore unsupportable. Even if it's the latter, why choose those particular sins to tie together?
