The Danish legislature approved full marriage equality recently by an overwhelming vote. All straight marriages will, of course, immediately lose their sanctity and no one will henceforth love their spouses or their children. It’s a good thing those horrible effects know to stop at a nation’s borders, though. And at state borders too.

Not surprising that this would happen in a tyrannical socialist state run by jackbooted thugs. The Danes have long been forced to bow at the secular humanist altar of political correctness where they’ve had homosexuality rammed down their throats by effete liberal college professors. Don’t they also kill their non-productive elderly and slaughter Christian babies?

I can’t decide if this is better as intentional or unintentional hilarity.

Whatever happened to the old days when it was all ‘dog and cats living together’ and ‘PYGMIES + DWARFS’?
They sure are reaching down into the dregs of Swamp o’ Loons.

Regarding cats and dogs living together, I think I can finally put that one to rest with this completely anecdotal evidence. My dog and cat have a sometimes-uneasy detente wherein they generally avoid each other, though there are occasional skirmishes at the water dish. Oh, and um, yeah, it’s only a matter of time before Denmark is swallowed by the earth or whatever.

Re: Skip White (#9)
Give the Danish terrain…more likely swallowed up by the sea, although to think that might happen would require accepting AGW…so I guess the US wackos are doomed either way.
(This action is one more that makes me respect and cherish the country two of my grandparents came from.)

Actually, as noted by the article, the sanctity of marriage has been increased by the law — same-sex couples may have church weddings, and the Danish Church has already come up with new rites. So, sanctity all around.
