The patriarchs practiced polygamy and Nero fiddled while Rome burned.
Back to the future! Cheers everyone.

Who can afford more than one wife? Really??? Much less the cost of a multiple party divorce!
There are women who actually allow their men to have more than one wife??? (They’ve never met mine...)

How to totally destroy this “letter” and its arguments:
1.) The OT shows the heartache that Abraham, Jacob, David and others experienced from polygamy, and the OT shows explicitely how it was polygamy itself, not just the normal marital problems experienced by all, that caused trouble for these men.
2.) Jesus Christ said in Matthew “A man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife [not wives] and the TWO shall become ONE flesh.”
Jesus Christ outlawed polygamy by his word. If people wish to willingly disobey then if they desire hellfire, then they can have at it, I guess....
Now, if a man gives his life to Christ, and say was a Muslim before accepting Christ, divorce may not be an option, as God said He hates divorce.

Genetically speaking polygamy is like peeing in your own gene pool.
Great if you are looking for a long term inbred population, cause that's what happens. Would explain some of LBJ's great society's problems too.

IMHO, the sense of Genesis II:24 is
singular.
The ideal marriage in Torah is probably that of Isaac and Rebecca, which was completely monogamous. Otherwise, marriage problems prevail throughout the Pentateuch, usually impacting the lives of often thousands in the negative sense.
On would think there's a lesson in that, but that so much fewer actually know it, and even fewer take it to heart.

Oops...left a part out:
If a man is a Muslim, for instance, and married say 2,3 or a max of 4 wives under Islam and later accepted Christ as savior, then he may be stuck in that mess, as God said in MalachiMalachi that He hates divorce.

I am coming to peace with the rapid and impending destruction of America.
We should be destroyed. We aren't a nation worth saving.

It's all an act. The people want me in-character. They get pissed when I don't. It's like Foster Brooks, who used to play act like he was drunk. He never was. He tried to do a new character, and everyone hated it.
I'm actually very choosy about women in real life.

Don’t get real on me now!
On a lighter note. America is not behind this regime and
the last thing I need to hear is your fun being ruined.
God is in charge and this administration has mocked him.
Just pray to not give up and we will get it back. We could use your help. You have the gift of sarcasm to no end.
BTW, would you hit Moochelle?

That Jeffs really kept it in the family. I don’t mind if Some men have a few wives. I want 3 husbands, one to earn a good living, one to fix the roof, and one to entertain me. ;-)

It’s ignorant baloney. I feel sad for those folks more than angry, though.
