I have made the argument several times (though I can find little reference to it on the Atlas Blogged archives - I must have been arguing in email) that despite what so many believe, gay marriage does not necessitate polygamy or bestiality. I did take a little convincing about the polygamy part - see Kip, Esquire for a great argument that helped me figure it out.

But the bestiality part in particular I have always though was a pretty ridiculous, reactionary, Chicken Little argument. I mean, seriously... If two men have lived together and loved one another for years and years, the legalization and legitimization of that relationship is not a compelling bestiality argument in any way. It's not a slippery slope.

Having said all of that, this story is a little disturbing. Thank you, Lawyers, Gun$ and Money for the laugh.
