You're the one who entered this thread to claim that polygamy was somehow beyond Mitt Romney, who represents ALL temple Mormons as being in the same supposed potential "eternal polygamist" boat...as if you were extremely concerned about PRing Mitt's monogamous status.
This is what is so disengenous about Mormons. They portend that Lds polygamy is supposedly ALL past tense...all as they dupliciously -- and secretly -- promote "eternal polygamy" for some...those who take up serial monogamy in this life!
There you go again, just making stuff up.
You lose.
What is “serial monogamy “
Thank You. How true.
Example: You have a wife. She dies. You marry another. She dies. You marry another.
In Mormondom, the Bishops' Handbook
The Lds hierarchy teaches that Lds can be polyandrists [multiple spouses] in eternity -- as long as she was sealed for eternity to each of them when she was serially married to them on earth -- Source: the official church Handbook of Instruction (for Lds bishops), p. 72
God told him he would have a son but because of a lack of faith he went to Hagar, his old wife's handmaid.
This is also the same Abraham that whored out his wife, Sarai to go sleep with the King to win him favor.
We all fall short and SIN. God CHOSE ABRAHAM, Abraham didn't EARN IT.
Perhaps you should get your Christianty straight before you come here trying to argue the bible.
BTW, is this the Joseph Smith translation of the bible ? Why don't you use it ?
There you go again, just making stuff up. You lose. [TChris' response to me]
Thank You. How true. [BlueMoose to TChris, post#44]
So I'm just "making this stuff up, eh???"
ALL:
For more info on this handbook, see Lds Church Handbook of Instructions
If you turn to p. 85, col. 1, last paragraph of the 2006 version, you'll see the following sentence:
Ah...so that's the Mormon "other" woman in the MAINSTREAM Lds church of Salt Lake City!!!!!
Why imagine that! If what the Mormons claim is true: That "marriages are forever" for temple-sealed marriages, then here we have the mainstream Lds church -- contrary to their PR lies -- promoting "eternal" polygamy!!!!
And TChris falsely claimed I was "making this stuff up."
Maybe TC merely was not aware of the Truth of the matter.
So; instead of being a liar; he is merely ignorant.
You have added to his knowledge base today and he will not be making THIS mistake again.
