Have you got something against just accepting what the Bible says with out trying to rule something out just because it does not meet with your approval?

The Bible says even more directly that God had Hosea marry Gomer, a flesh trafficker (namely her own flesh). And Gomer cont'd such a "cottage industry" postmarriage.

By analogy, you would then have us believe that just because God directed Hosea to marry a prostitute who remained one postmarriage that if some sect rose up directing its members to marry active (continuing) prostitutes that, "Hey since the Bible sanctions it...it's AOK?" Really?

The Bible talks about rape in Genesis; David sleeping with Bathsheba; so...due to these precedents does that mean we are to "go thou & do likewise?"

Ravenwolf...you're startin' to provide some humor for the rest of us :)

So be it, but it is you who are making these analogies I do not see it that way at all.

And yes I do see some humor in it but accusing me of doing it is not going to fool any one.
