Quote[replyDidn't he bang an underage virgin that squirted out an illegitimate kid? Seems to me that this God feller wasn't all to worried about any nuptial. Why would he give a shit or two about anyone else?
I see your point , freethefly.
You are right! The Bible does suggest that Mary concieved Gods' child without benefit of marriage.
But this thread isn't about illicit relationships between Biblical charachters.(I'm sorry)
This thread is about polygamy and heterosexual marriages.
Do you have anything to add to the discussion of polygamy and homosexual marriages, freethefly?
If not I'm sure we'll have a discussion of the virgin birth in the next few days.
Watch for a thread title something like " Virgin Birth" and then you can chime in !
But thanks for reading and gosh darn.., just being you and part of the group!
Golly gee willikers, Mr. Dan, I guess maybe you are right! But I have been known to be wrong from time to time and I do believe that this may be one of those times! Yet seeing that you are new to this website (recently registered July 4th, or maybe just a new persona as I suspect you may have been banned recently) you really do not know me.
My take on polygamy? Marry all the women you want. Hell, I've had a number of wives, but never been married. I also have two daughters from different women. Never seen a need to be married. Most marriages end in divorce anyways. Why go through the hassle? Besides, why take the chance at losing at my motorcycles and everything else with a divorce? A polygamist divorce would be a nightmare compared to divorcing just one woman!
The gay marriage? They can do whatever they want. Whatever they do does not concern me at all.
Well gosh diddly do Danny boy, chief of the thread police, did that satisfy your highly tuned intellectual curiosity as to whether or not I had anything to add?
Thank you just for being the many different persona's you have been over the last year or so! You are so jokingly entertaining.

I don't think that is true. I think polygamy has a lot more history and is still quite popular and legal in quite a few regions (Africa and Islamic countries).
Consenting adults should be allowed to do what they like.

No, they don't. That's what I'm saying. If say, the brother sister pair each have a recessive negative gene, they have their children have the same chance of being AA, Aa, aa (25/50/25) as any other general population couple with the same traits. If two perfectly genetically healthy siblings have kids, their kids will not have any negative genetic traits that were passed down, just like a couple from the general population. And again, if we're going to exclude one set of people because they might pass down bad DNA, why not make the ban across all people? Blood tests would just be a requirement to get a license, quick and easy at that.QuoteQuoteThere is no increased chance of genetic mutation in say a brother / sister pair.
Genetic mutation isn't the issue of concern. The fact that they have a much higher likelihood of possessing and passing on negative recessive genetic traits is the issue.
You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.

QuoteI got married to my Norton chopper back in the 80's. We separated several times, but she always came back. What can I say? The bitch loves me. I did cheat on her with a 91 FLSTF for 11 years. She was really sweet and curvy. I thought about divorcing the Norton to marry the Harley, but never did. The Harley left me in 02. Well, I have been cheating on my Norton, once again, for a number of years with an 05 FLSTFI. Not really cheating as the Norton knows of the Harley. She doesn't seem to mind that I ride another bike. What I am wondering is would anyone think I was strange if I were married to two motorcycles? Is there any law against doing so?
My 05 FLSTFI got pretty pissed off when I came home with the 09 FLSTF

Bigamy is one wife too many, so is monogamy.

I think that if consenting adults agree then the government should back off.

QuoteMarriage has almost always been defined throughout history as a union between one man and one woman.
Lately, there has been a trend towards legalizing homosexual marriages, whereby a union can be recognized between two men or two women.
So with all this redefining of marriage going on, isn't it time to also legalize polygamy - a union between multiple partners?
If two homosexuals can marry each other, why can't one man have a marriage with two women? This is already a recognized practice in many parts of the world. Who is the government to tell willing adults what kind of marriage vows they should be allowed to enter into? As long as everyone is a willing partner, it seems to me that the door has been opened, and it should be just about "anything goes" now. I say it's time to legalize polygamy.
Polygamy like you said is widely accepted in many places around the world and I see no reason why it should be illegal.

Ignorance is NOT bliss...
Especially WILLFUL ignorance.
Marriage has NOT almost always been defined throughout history as one man one woman. That is an ignorant construct marketed by RWCs to the gullible.
The Bible has plenty of stories of polygamous relations. The ancient Greeks had homosexual relationships that were recognized by their governments. There are parts of the world, for example, Africa, where polygamous relationships are the norm. The house of Saud, aka, the folks that run Saudi Arabia, are polygamous.
In the USA, marriage is between two people, at least in the civilized parts.
Polygamy is not a relationship model that has been recognized or approved of by USA society or the USA legal system. The folks that are interested in polygamous relationships are free to have them. If they would like legal and social approval, they are free to pursue that.
The people on the Big Love TV show are suing to allow polygamous relationships to be legal. That is how the system here works. If they can come up with a compelling legal argument, they might win, if the judge is NOT a right wing activist.
Homosexuals should be allowed to marry the person of their choice. That are entitled to be as miserable as the rest of the people who get married. With a divorce rate of ~50%, it is clear that respect for the institution of marriage is rather limited.

It seems far too many people can not abide with other people being able to do things that they themselves are not interested in.. A friend posted this... just something to think about for those who are so fucking adamant about their second amendment rights and taking away the rights of others to persue happiness.
Don't like gay marriages? Don't get one.. Don't like cigarettes ? Don't smoke them.. Don't like abortions? Don't have one.. Don't like sex? Don't do it.. Don't like drugs? Don't take them.. Don't like porn? Don't watch it.. Don't like alcohol? Don't drink it.. Don't like guns? Don't buy one.. Don't like your rights taken away??? Don't take away someone else's.

God defined marriage in the beginning as an intimate relationship between one man and one woman (actually with the intent of displaying what a relationship with Christ should be like). What man has done with it (even as described throughout the historical accounts in the Bible) is another story. Man may change his definitition of marriage...but God has not.

It doesn't take a blood test to identify many genetic defects. They can be quite visually obvious. Since we don't exclude such people from reproducing, why exclude blood relatives?
