Right, if same sex marriage accepted then why not polygamy.

I think we can include the homosexuals, and physically and mentally challenged .... Hitler targeted as well in this list ...

Right. In the time of great tribulation, it will be the homosexuals speaking up for the rights of Bible believing Christians.

NO ONE is concerned that the gospel of Christ won't stand. You guys completely miss point after point, and re-prhase every argument (all while ignoring the real points).
My concern is for my children and grandchildren, BECAUSE eventually unrestrained homosexuality, forced acceptance, and elementary children who are "educated" on how legitimate it is, and "how to" will eventually touch everyone's backyard sometime.

Yes, that was my question, but I thought about it and figured it out.
They have to don't they? They have to follow the law and the Constitution. The lawmakers are our problem.

Because polygamy has legal Supreme Court precedent and same sex marriage does not, and it take MUCH more to overturn precedent than to make new one.
Polygamy therefore extremely extremely unlikely to change.
Same sex marriage though has a shot ever since Lawrence v Texas was blotched so badly by the State. They argued privacy law instead of state's rights and lost big time. Therefore state's rights lost as well. It will loom large when the cases finally do go up.
Although as Baron pointed out it may be a equal protection clause under competing state's rights case that triggers it which will make the outcome even more unforeseeable.

I don't understand what you mean - if they weren't required to follow the constitution and ignore their personal opinions, then considering some of the justices we've had in times past and have currently, we'd be in REAL trouble.
