Etiquette

How do you have good "etiquette" without being a liar.
I noticed that a lot of people who have "good etiquette" by typical women's standards are liars.
But not all liars have good etiquette.
Is it possible to have good etiquette by typical women's standards without being a liar or a paralyzed mime?
By the way the same issue occurs with non-christian men as with typical women.
By typical I mean most women I know well enough to understand their standards perhaps elsewhere.....

Perhaps TMI isn't the issue, but the kind or quality of info might be the issue. Marriage based on mono or poly is on a very poor foundation. Marriage based on godly love and loyalty to the spouse and to the Lord and His Word is on a much more solid footing, one that will likely endure and possibly welcome the truth of polygyny.
if all of your friends know about your "heretical" beliefs it will:
1)cut down on the number of dates you are going to get
2)cut down on the OMG's that you will have to deal with
of course, that does not help when you are fishing by yourself, might have to go back to the T-shirt thang ala cecil.
but whatever, the sooner the better. winning a girls heart befor you tell her qualifies as manipulation and abuse in my book.

Pastor John,
I agree with you on your comment, that marriage cannot be based on any issue but the love of God.....
But....
Plural marriage is a "third rail" issue for a lot of Christians. Much like the rail that was used to electrify elevated and subway trains, you tough this "rail" for some, and death (or broken relationships) occur.
How can we be both sensitive to the lack of understanding of those who are emotionally opposed to plural marriage, while at the same time effectively communicating those beliefs?
I, for one, don't want to be labled a "Plural Marriage Christian". I am simply a 'believer', who also has this in my pedigree. Plural Marriage is only 1% of what I believe.
Blessings,
Doc
