The Slippery Slope

Jonathan Turley published an article in the New York Times in which he argues that gays and those wishing to enter into "plural marriages" should make common cause to legalize both.  While he tries to rebut Scalia's warning in Lawrence v. Texas of the "slippery slope", it seems to me Turley makes Scalia's point.

For Christians, there is no logical way to draw a line around what sexual conduct is moral and what is immoral except by the authority of Scripture.  Once we depart from the obvious meaning of Scripture, the "logic" of Lawrence, and popular culture, take over and there can be no more lines.
