A longer quote of his that shows his blind spot when it comes to sex:
Consensual sex outside of marriage is not bigamy. Marrying more than one person is.
Consensual sex is not polygamy. It could be polyamory depending on how you really feel about them.
Incest is another matter entirely and usually only prosecuted when one of the 'partners' is underage.
Oh, but if the CHURCH is doing it, he takes a completely different attitude:
He participates in what my semantics teacher taught as as one of the seven tactics that loses debates - in this case "reducto ad absurdum" - reducing to the absurd:
Having that kind of relationship with five people could actually probably be handled by the legal entity known as a "corporation".
But back to the point. In NH, Santorum denied comparing homosexuality to bestiality. Well, boys and girls, here it is - from a 2003 USA Today interview:
The "it's not" referred to "marriage". Later on, when pressed, Santorum has tried to say the "it's not" referred to homosexuality. But when you look at his other quotes, the pattern is clear.

You write this long, and you think scholarly post and you are misguided. You are wrong in you thinking and you are perpetrating a falsehood and you should be ashamed of yourself, or at least troubled by your cognitive thinking.
SANTORUM HAS NEVER, AND IS NOT NOW TALKING ABOUT GAY SEX!!!!
He is talking about marriage!!!!; traditional marriage as handed down from our ancestors for thousands of years.
Go back and read his quote and try to keep it in context. He's talking about marriage.
Your twisting of his intent is maybe more hateful than what you accuse him of.
