Hi Julie, thank you for sharing your experience with me. It seems like a very messy thing to navigate. We're not very active in church right now, so that may give us a little more breathing room. (I'd like to be, but it's incredibly difficult to...

Our family has done different things over the years due to changing circumstances. The general idea was one of "it really isn't anyone's business" especially if we didn't know them well. We did all agree that telling family was important since...

I am not qualified to arbitrate orthodoxy, but your accusations are pretty deep. Specifically apostate, and heretic. I’d like to see some citations on your homework about this guy. Point me in the right direction. Isaiah 43:26 confronts these...

Says who? What’s your evidence? You cast stones with little or no evidence. Have you met him? Spoken to him? Did you visit this congregation? You are quite a lofty fellow judging a lot of folks.

Note that I am discussing someone who claims to view the bible from the same understanding that I have. Not stating that my viewpoint is the only biblically sound or defendable one. I was having a discussion with another biblical believing woman...

Uhhh, not so sure about that. Sin doesn’t necessarily require an antecedent. It’s inherent. Plenty of well meaning and agape filled spouses have found themselves mystified by the actions of their one flesh partner. Like @steve said, basic...

Thanks for the response. I read all of it, but it's a lot to respond to. Have you practiced polygamy yourself? What brought you to the forum? I respect your opinion. It sounds like you've done a lot of soul searching on this issue. And I agree...

You will also find some who would disagree with this too, for various reasons. If taken too far, selflessness could paralyze a husband and father into not wanting to upset the peace in his home and thereby not making big or bold decisions...

I had a similar, but quite different experience. My tail bone broke my senior year in college and the doc wanted to remove it. I asked him if it would help and he said no. I would have phantom pain the rest of my life. No thanks, so I went to...

Man, there is reason concept of privacy exists. You don't have to share everything with world. Sometimes, it's even unwanted. Why would you want to share details of your sex life with your parents? Or even wors, your children?

If the facts are on your side, pound the facts into the table. If the law is on your side, pound the law into the table. If neither the facts nor the law are on your side, pound the table…loudly, or this case…laugh. *note that law is lowercase...
