Maybe the Torah has some mistakes in it? Maybe God decided to rewrite his “infallible” Word because it needed an upgrade to version 2.0 (aka the New Testament) because He didn’t quite get it right the first time and also to fit the times since man had evolved since the time the Torah was written.

Maybe the Koran was another upgrade and then finally the Book of Mormon as the final upgrade. Don’t you think man desires to create God the way he wants Him instead of the way He is and always will be?

So, you want to denigrate Jews and Christians and say that Muhammadism and Mormonism is an "upgrade"?

So, so you favor polygamy (hence the "upgrade" status you apply to Muhammadism and Mormonism)? What is your view of Heaven, do you think (as the Muhammadens do) that it's basically a brothel with an open bar?

Jews received the Torah at Mt. Sinai. Christians created a better, more improved version known as the New Testament. The Muzzies thought they had a better version with their Koran. Then the Mormons created their own even better book of Mormon.

What I’m trying to say is that human beings will disagree with a text like the Torah and create their own because they disagree with it. Then they say it superior to the book that preceded it.

Polygamy is in the Torah. If you look at Deuteronomy 17:17 it says...

“The king must not take many wives for himself, because they will turn his heart away from the LORD. And he must not accumulate large amounts of wealth in silver and gold for himself.”

The rabbis asked what is an excessive amount of wives. They determined the number was 18. How they came up with that determination I do not know.

Heaven is another world, place distinctly separate and non-physical place from this universe where everything is one where there is no separation, division, and only where eternal peace and forgiving love reign which radiates from God. There aren’t any brothels or bordellos there.
