In yet the latest volley by conservative Christian political figures to attack the passing of same sex marriage laws, Christian Coalition chief Pat Robertson declared Thursday that gay marriage is “just the beginning in a long downward slide in relation to all the things that we consider to be abhorrent.”

On an interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network, the host asked Robertson about a gay marriage bill that passed the New Hampshire legislature. “But Pat, the governor there still isn’t sure if he will approve that bill,” the host said.

“Lee, we haven’t taken this to its ultimate conclusion,” Robertson replied. “You got polygamy out there. How can we rule that polygamy is illegal when you say that homosexual marriage is legal. What is it about polygamy that’s different? Well, polygamy was outlawed because it was considered immoral according to biblical standards. But if we take biblical standards away in homosexuality, what about the other? And what about bestiality and ultimately what about child molestation and pedophilia? How can we criminalize these things and at the same time have constitutional amendments allowing same-sex marriage among homosexuals. You mark my words, this is just the beginning in a long downward slide in relation to all the things that we consider to be abhorrent.’
