And the Bible. So who cares what either one of them has to say about it?

A couple billion people.

Maybe that's unfortunate, maybe it's not.

Opinions about social constructs, whether expressed religiously or in secular fashion, are supposed to take into account how those constructs actually worked out.

But the debate about the merit of certain kinds of marriage is seemingly still on, no matter what kind of results have occurred before.

Thank you, Phrodeau, my furry-footed friend.

Now I know that homosexuals are basically like goats.
Nayyyyy.

What you should be learning is things like "frottage was invented in Egypt", or "Noah was date-raped by his son".
 
Well, the ancient Celts had eight to ten different degrees of marriage, often resulting in polygamy. :cool:

See, there it is again.

By the Gods, I say! ... nobody gets you.

But Laurel does, and I do. And so... if anything untoward might happen to me, you shall become GB Moderator.

It is a heavy mantle, but one I am sure you will bear with pride and your usual obstinance. Don't be afraid to be a bastard, it's part of the job.
 
Secretly, it doesn't.

Imagine being a man with two or more wives. If they don't get along, you'll be stuck in the thankless role of referee. If they do, then whenever either of them wants something, they can join forces and nag you in shifts to wear down your resistance.

And Mormons believe you have to keep all your wives in the afterlife forever with no divorce option! :eek:

It's not for everyone. But it works for me and can help undo our steady path to extinction.

I used to get Phrodes. Even started a thread in his honor once.

And then came the steady stream of dogma...
