Will Polygamy Be the Next Homosexuality?
The Gospel Herald ^ | June 20, 2014 | Leah Marieann Klett

Posted on 06/22/2014 1:00:23 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

As the battle for marriage equality rages on, a different, more obscure kind of sexual immorality is slowly rearing its ugly head: polygamy.

Polygamy is defined as the "the custom of having more than one wife or husband at the same time," a practice which directly violates the Biblical commandment instructing marriage to be between a single man and wife (1 Timothy 3:2, 12 and Titus 1:6).

However, the secular media is increasingly attempting to normalize, and even glamorize this kind of perverted lifestyle.

Showtime is airing an original series called Polyamory: Married & Dating, which follows two polyamorous families living in Southern California. The show follows in the footsteps of "Sister Wives," which shows a depicting a man "happily married" to three wives.

Most recently, NBC released a show called True Believers, in which viewers get an inside look into what it's like to "live with multiple partners without sacrificing the comforts of home." The producers get up close and person with five adults and a 9-year-old girl who see nothing amiss with their lifestyle.

Jennifer LeClaire, author of "The Making of a Prophet" calls the push for polygamy a "new level of debauchery," warning that it will soon follow in the footsteps of the homosexual agenda in becoming a national issue.

"The prince of the power of the air is using media to push a new level of debauchery to generations young and old," she writes. "ABC has preached the "gospel of polyamory" in its attempt to move past gay marriage into further destruction of God's plan for the family." "Slowly and steadily, the push for polyamory is rising in the media, in many ways taking a page from the gay agenda's playbook. Polyamory is already a legislative issue in Canada. Rest assured, America is next. The shadow of Sodom and Gomorrah hangs over America. Perversion is rising. Currently, polyamory is illegal in 21 states, but recent polls suggest that number may change. NBC reports that 5 percent of people in the United States are in polyamorous relationships and reveals there are over 900 in Atlanta's polyamory community. LeClaire warns against complacency, saying Christians have an obligation to protect God's plan for the family and protect the next generation. She encourages Christians to unite together and pray for the preservation of traditional marriage. "If we sit by and complain or stick our heads in the sand, arguing that Christians should not be discussing these issues, then we're admitting defeat and displeasing Christ. But if you believe that God can deliver some from the grip of immorality...then drop to your knees and join with me in intercessory prayer. It's not only about setting the captives free-it's about protecting the next generation of young minds the media is molding.

I think the pedophiles will be next because most folks cannot afford more than one wife. In fact, most men, myself included, cannot afford even one wife if she really likes to shop.

One is plenty for me. She hasn’t driven me crazy yet, though most who know me would say that’s a chip shot, or even a putt, not a drive.

100 years ago, homosexuality was almost university condemned, as paedophilia is now. 50 years later, the push for the normalisation of homosexuality began in earnest, leading to the situation that exists today. It would be a terrible mistake to assume even dearly held and universal moral values will be perceived as such even a few decades down the line. It is frightening how quickly and how radically society’s moral values have changed in the space of a single lifetime, and there is nothing to suggest this trend will stop any time soon.

Still confused about it in the Bible...There was Adam and Eve...and not Adam and Eve, Steve, Cindy, Nancy, Ethel, Fiona, Susie, Ann and Fido.

Incest....with Gay marry there is no procreation reason to block incestuous marry so if you follow the legal logic..incest will have to be allowed...

Truth is I view Gay as a super-set (a form) of Incest

Funny, one gay dream is of science giving them a way to generically procreate..

If there is ever is a way to artificially create a child from the genetic material from two males or two females

I fear the genetic problems will be far worst then what you see in “traditional” inbreeding

You don’t seriously justify polygamy on the basis of past primitive social systems. Human sacrifice and cannibalism have been practiced throughout history, and even today. However, we do not want the roll back civilization to the primitive systems and take humans back to a savage existence.

Legally, given the decisions on homosexual marriage, I don’t see why it wouldn’t. I think both the bigamy and consanguinity laws are on borrowed time right now, and in that order, because there’s less “ick” factor to multiple marriages than incestuous ones. But make no mistake, they’re going to happen. (I think it’s going to create moral, legal and practical chaos, don’t get me wrong, but the legal and judicial professions aren’t paying a whole lot of attention to what I think.)

Oh, I doubt if all those husbands consider it slavery.

Pedophilia is already there with the homosexuals.

Not if the necrophiliacs and pederasts get there first.

Don’t forget Necrophilia. They may be a small fraction of the population, but they can’t be left behind.

Polygamy doesn't violate the Natural Law. Else, God never would have tolerated it, and in the case of Leverite Marriage, actually require it.

Aquinas and St. Augustine, as I recall, agreed with that, but they also saw that polygamy works against the "two-shall-become-one" paradigm that Jesus set down, so they didn't allow it.

But to say it's anywhere near as perverse as two guys having at it, then that's just silly.

The ancient Israelis had a very different attitude about sex than we have. Remember the story of the old King David and Abishag the Shunamite. Looking at beautiful naked girls was believed to have strong medicinal benefits!

Hey, if it's good enough for King David, it's good enough for me.

You don't see pedophilia becoming mainstream.

Is "transgender" mainstream? Of course not. But on Friday, Obama quietly and "steadily extended his administration's advocacy to the smallest and least accepted band of the LGBT rainbow: transgender Americans."

To the people who are determined to destroy Western Civilization, no deviancy is too small to enlist in the job.

You’re allowed 4 wives in Islam. 5 is a sin.

Indeed. I figure “pedophilia is the new gay” will be a common saying relatively shortly.
