Actually no, that's not the point. My opinion on polygamy is moot since the argument is fallacious and based on an incorrect premise.
Thus, even if I were a proponent of polygamy, I would not use that argument. I tend to try to stay away from logical fallacies when making a logical argument. Sorry that you don't.
Perhaps you could get back to the topic (ie gay marriage?)

Didn't say that it was inconvenient. I said it was useless.

Irony abounds. How interesting that you begin grading people based on posts and then turn around and use 'professor' as a tongue-in-cheek title.

So your argument is "Let's not push for any advancements in policy at all?"
Wow.

^^AKA why your argument is both useless and annoying, Totenkopf.
