Or maybe the current human perception of love is limited, maybe we can love more than one person at the same time.

We love our kids and you can have several kids and love them all equally like a parent is supposed to love their children.


OK, now you've gone too far. You can think about a subject until it becomes absurd, and you are there.

Before marriage, one might love more than one person with no consequences. But love, by itself, is not the issue here. We are talking about marriage. Marriage is a sexual and a financial relationship, and many would argue, has nothing to do with love. (Or, as my old boyfriend used to gleefully point out, marriage is the cure for love.)

Are you advocating polygamy? I hope not. It's illegal in this country. We don't seem to have any posters from countries where it's legal. Why is that?

As for loving all the children we have and providing for them, yes, most parents can do that. But are they going around taking in the neighbors' kids and sending them to college? No, love is not that magnanimous.
