    Polygamy & Christendom

    The issue here is divorce and then getting married to another woman, this has nothing to do with polygamy.

    Polygamy & Christendom

    I believe there is insufficient evidence in the Bible to condemn polygamy. It is those who do not want to see it so as to defend their own purpose and wrong conclusions.

    Polygamy & Christendom

    Of course, there are many abolished practices, however, I don't see where the Bible explicitly says polygamy is one of those practices.

    I don't see that having a girlfriend would necessitate bigamy.

    Polygamy & Christendom

    Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. For the record, I'm not suggesting that just because Luther said something makes it okay. I used that quote to emphasize the legitimacy of the position that the polygamy may not necessarily be a sin. Protestants sometimes tend not to value a position...

    Polygamy & Christendom

    I'm confused by your argument, so when can I use the practices outlined in the OT as evidence for a position?

    Polygamy & Christendom

    It doesn't change the fact it is a poor argument. Things changed after the fall which allowed for certain things to be permissible. Do you also think I should work towards being naked since God intended us to be that way? It seems Christians only apply this argument when it's convenient for...

    lol This would literally be a nightmare of a situation for more conservatively minded Christians. :D

    Polygamy & Christendom

    I don't know if I agree with this position, I'll think on it more. I think the issue is that you're presupposing certain things about God's will (which will open a new can of worms outside the scope of this thread). Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "adultery of the heart"...

    Polygamy & Christendom

    No that doesn't logically follow. The issue is over the divorce, and the remarriage. Not simply multiple marriages. Again, this would be a separate topic.

    Polygamy & Christendom

    This is generally is a very poor argument. You could also make the argument that God intended us to be vegans, and to eat meat is a perversion of His original design. I've talked about why this is an irrelevant argument here: The "Original Design / Plan" Argument & Why It's Irrelevant Not proof...

    That's not proof against polygamy, it's a false analogy.

    This verse would be a discussion regarding adultery and consecutive marriages. If you want to talk about that I'd suggest starting a new thread?

    Polygamy & Christendom

    Luther Said: Polygamy Is Permissible "I confess that I cannot forbid a person to marry several wives, for it does not contradict the Scripture. If a man wishes to marry more than one wife he should be asked whether he is satisfied in his conscience that he may do so in accordance with the word...

    Relationship Advice - I turned a girl down because of behavior that disturbed me

    Get out of there bro!!! She's a crazy one for sure. You're in college. Focus on getting awesome marks, graduating and getting a sick job. Women come and go man, there is nothing to even think about.

    Breast feeding.

    I'm confused by the question, why would it matter if breasts are exposed? Why would God feel anything about it?
