Checking back for your no-doubt copious references, I note you have not addressed St. Paul’s rejection of the polygamous from calling as overseers or elders. Was he part of the Great Apostasy, too?

Here are some excellent links my friend.. you know as well as I do that Roman law wasn’t laid out in some singular book called Roman Law, but changed and developed over the centuries according to the whims of the leaders.
