Should people be allowed to marry animals?

    I know alot of animals that are really good pets but is it fair to call them pets?
    After all being called a pet suggests that these animals are not equals.
    Now I have no animals myself at home other then the kids, and I am not speaking of goats here. But would it be bigoted of me to deny someone else the right to marry their pet? Would it be unlawful for me to deny someone else the freedom of expression on how they feel about their pet/animal.
    After all let us remember that in 20 or so states it is not illegal to engage in stuff with animals as long as it does not damage the animal, sorry duck lovers.
    Would the next political correct logical step then be to allow people to marry their pets. Think about the money they could then save on their tax's and health insurance benefits,etc..
    Please let us not be closed minded on this issue.
    Especially those rightest republicans.

    People marry other people that could probably be better classed as animals just about everyday. I have heard wives describe their husbands as apes. So what is the question?

    I think marriage is a contract. Can animals agree to a contract?

    I believe it's only right that you should be able to marry the "whole" animal. After all, didn't Moen's wife marry the south end of a north bound horse? So why not the rest of it?

    Other animals, toasters, etc. cannot sign legally binding contracts, so no.

    Well a wedding contract in the old days could have been sealed with the walking together in a circle as a seal but if you want how about a neigh or baa as an yes answer or a knocking of a hoof upon the ground?

    The signed contract sounds discriminatory to me. Are you a bigot?
    For I think PETA offers classes to resolve those issues.

    I'm too bahh-fled to reach a conclusion.
