Topic: New Zealand becomes enlightened

Finally our parliment has done something useful, passed the Marriage Equality bill, allowing for any 2 people to marry.

What is even better is we now have a new tourist attraction, with plenty of Aussies (and others) now planning to come to NZ to get married, so much win it is not funny.

Time to celebrate and rejoice

Bigots! Why can't a man marry the 5 women he loves?

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Re: New Zealand becomes enlightened

Expanding the marriage franchise is not enlightened. It is even more backward. What the state needs to do is abolish marriage, because it privileges a conception of the good.
