Is this about right?
No: reread and work through the logic (modus ponens).

That is my point, common sense should tell any one, that does not over think this, that it should not be done.

Anyone who places any notion of "common sense" above their own reasoning has mindlessly acquiesced, and given their individual gift of reason over to the commons. That is what common sense is; using common sense to make decisions is acquiescing to the authority of some ambiguous social body. Do you really want to esteem common sense? Or, do you want to think and use reason to explore the very roots and foundations of your opinions?

You are right to distinguish philosophy and common sense, though; however, in esteeming common sense, you devalue your own ability to reason.

I truly think he is compensating for some thing with all the name dropping he does. But, if it makes him feel smart, who are we to judge.

Well, I'll lose.

But I also don't think that it's all good if one wants to bang and money shot his wife a couple hours after she's dead.

If I have to choose, I'll take the former.

It's an inanimate object. Marriage void and grandpa by no means owns grandma. You aren't being very consistent.
