[Vision2020] Challenge to Crabtree

One of the primary "reasons" that Christian Fundamentalists apply in
justifying why gays cannot marry is that they (the gay married couple)
cannot procreate.  It's a lame excuse, but it's all they've got.

Crabtree suggests that if folks have a right to gay marriage, then they have

(a) a right to marry their mothers, and (b) a right to marry multiple
partners.

I say that this is just crap that that some people bring up because they
have 
no argument and the best that they can do is appeal to emotion.

I challenge Gary to fill in the blank:

We are justified in preventing gays from marrying because _________.

If he does so, I will fill in this blank:

We are justified in preventing people from marrying their mothers because 
_________.

Then we'll let the people of Moscow vote as to which response is better!
