Resolved: Contracts require at least two parties

The central problem with jtgain’s analogy is the way it ignores or minimizes the very serious problems that marriage fixes for gay people, without showing that any similar problems exist for his “cleanlosexuals.”

I’ve been meaning to say that this is a really important point and I feel jerky for missing it earlier. My focus has been on what I see as the technical flaws in the analogy, but Miller is right that the analogy’s most important flaw is its pernicious minimizing of the suffering of gay folks.

Yes, it’s a more serious change. But it’s a matter of degree. Which is why I object to your characterization of the issue as wholly different. It’s not.

My point was that a contract inherently involved the agreement between two parties able to agree. A lawsuit does not involve the agreement of two parties. Therefore, the analogy is invalid.
Since this is the only response you had to my post, I assume you have no others.

I might have some questions on the lawsuit business, but that would just be supporting your evasion.
