From PastorswifePurity:
You haven't broken any rules. I am not talking to you as "management"...I am simply talking to you as someone that is curious. As you know, I am pretty lenient in APO...for the most part. I did read some (not nearly all) of the thread. I have to say that I disagree with a lot of it. I am certainly not making a correction concerning you and I apologize if you think I am. Even though I do disagree......I am just curious by nature. And I hold very strong opinions. I realize you don't know me very well and I hope you don't think I am attacking you in any way. Because I am not.
There is probably something I should tell you. In all honesty, I am not the least bit impressed with how educated a person is in the ways of the world and carnal flesh, etc....I am not the least bit impressed with the scholarship of scannerman (aka Jacobs Trouble) and Everett. I am completely disgusted with polygamy. I don't mind one bit if you guys wish to continue discussing it and I might join in from time to time. Even though you don't consider my thoughts on the topic to be a worthy force of the opposition! LOL.
Please don't be offended if I am plain spoken. I am not the least bit angry.... but I find polygamy disgusting and I wouldn't be surprised if scannerman was the atheist calling himself Canada Writer. Though I certainly wouldn't accuse him of it without being sure.
I'll just use my little humble, southern, biblical believing views and let the educated polygamists ones give it their best shot. Adultery is wicked! Some married couples are so hardened in their hearts that they have open-marriages (or polygamist ones). Such practices are evil and an abomination unto God. God is jealous over us, and we should be jealous over our spouse, in a godly way. Something is wrong with a wife who doesn't mind her husband being a whore monger.
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
