“ however it is adultery if a woman has a carnal relationship with a man other than her husband and it is fornication if she even associates with another man without the permission of her husband”
Holy fuckknuckle. This reminds me of all the posts claiming that evolution is a religion. Water the words’ meanings down to the point of being useless, why don’t you.
I mean, admittedly, one has to be in the same room with a person to fornicate with them, but fornication does not describe EVERY situation where two people are in the room, with or wihtout the hubby’s permission.
“not to mention that the man who permits his wife to have friendships with other men is a fool.”
Ah. Incel-level misogyny, i see. Women can’t be trusted out of our sight, they’re always hot for the cock.
I can’t imagine using that kind of paranoia to issue orders to my wife. I’d have come back from patrol to find the house empty, the rent due, and no forwarding address.
"A man is head of the woman and this should not be taken lightly.”
I don’t take it at all, much less lightly.
“For many men it is not a choice of whether to take another wife. It is a matter of physical and spiritual necessity. To be clear, it is not a sin to take an additional wife to "satisfy" ones own needs.”
Yeah, yeah, I grew up Mormon. But spiritually necessary wives are still bigamy before the law. And if she’s not satisfying my needs, there’s a reason the bathroom door locks.
"Marriage was invented by God in order to satisfy the needs of man. For Adam there was found no suitable helpmeet, so God created woman.”
Wait. Was Adam intended to fuck one of the beasts he named? Cow, horse, rooster? Those were what was offered as helpmeets. Nothing appealed so he got a woman, instead. But they didn’t even know they were naked until the Fall. How was Adam to know he had needs that required nudity if he couldn’t find nudity with both hands and a flashlight? This justification seems to have a few holes.
"Now, in order to avoid immorality it is important that no preacher deny a man this right to have his own God given desires satisfied in a way that is appropriate before God.”
After making a vow to God that you’ll ‘honor’ your first wife, you get to have a second one for relieving hard-ons? Wait’ll i tell the wife!
Although, i HAVE to believe that ‘for better or worse’ would cover my being horny when she’s not in the mood.
"This means that in order to avoid immorality a man should not be discouraged from taking an additional wife that lives with him or even a wife who does not live with him.”
Can my spiritual advisor NOT ponit out that bigamy is illegal? Or do i just get to show ‘SHUT UP! It’s REQUIRED!” until he does?
