Twist? A large portion of this thread are posters saying that this shows a lack of religion or godliness. Based on the language used, it seems most are Christians. So, I’m asking whether their objection is to the polyamorous aspect in general, or simply to the fact that they aren’t married. And if to polyamory in general, what their biblical basis for that was. In what way is that twisting anything?


You're being incredibly disingenuous here buddy. It's not near as prevalent in the Bible as you like to lie about.

You don't need the Bible to recoil from things like sodomy, self-mutilation, and wife-swapping.

God gave us a gag reflex for a reason. Most of us recoil naturally at PDA, especially between two men, unless we've been conditioned to accept it over time. We are also naturally jealous of our sexual partners- again, unless we've been conditioned otherwise by something like Slate.com or cuckold porn.

The hilarious thing is the majority of y'all absolutely worship a guy who was into poly-dating. In fact y'all may like polyamourous dating after you find out how much he was into it. Seems to be the way it works with that one.

I'm sorry, when have I made any statement whatsoever about its prevalence in the Bible? All I've said is that I'm not aware of any proscriptions against it. I believe you're the one being disingenuous.

I could just see my Dad to my little sister in this instance. "Sure your married boyfriend can come, honey, it's all on me." Then my Dad, would then call his cop cousins and the guy would never make it to the airport. Then my Dad would sit back and say under his breath, "Money well spent" Then read my sister the riot act and explain how the dude was playing her for an easy lay.

Abraham had more than one wife and Genesis 12:1–2 says, “Now the LORD said to Abram, ‘Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’”

So, if you are against polyamory you are against God. To everyone on this thread....enjoy hell!

I'm going to assume you're talking about Donald Trump here. I don't know a single person that voted for him that condones his past behavior with women in regards to him being married especially. However, most rational people can look past that in a political office candidate in that that is between him, his wife, and his God.

Jimmy Carter is as faithful as a person has ever been in his position, and he is one of the worst presidents in history.

He answered, “Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh?’

So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”

Matthew 19:3-6 ESV

Let deacons each be the husband of one wife, managing their children and their own households well.

1 Timothy 3:12 ESV

However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Ephesians 5:33 ESV

Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

Colossians 3:18-19 ESV


Furthermore, while there may not be any proscriptions against it, where in the Old Testament or New Testament is polygamy or polyamory or any other acts of adultery encouraged by God?

Guy is cheating on his wife. If he cheats with her, he'll cheat on her and leave her to pick up the pieces. If avoiding that sends you to hell....open up an express lane to the ninth circle.

The thing is, I would trust Jimmy Carter as a man, politics aside, before I would trust Donald Trump. I would trust my kids would be taken care of and watched over by Carter an feel more comfortable with it than if I left them to the care of Trump....speaking strictly as a man. Character does count for something.

Is it just me or does anyone else think its a little weird for a 30 year old to go on vacation with her parents?

It just might be the family I come from. Once we turned 18 you just sort of stop going on vacation with parents and just sort of start taking your own path.

I've traveled with my parents for family vacation my entire life and I'm married with two college age kids of my own. It's a family tradition to go on a ski trip or an international trip every year.

If you were going to quote them all in order, you could have just linked us to the first Google result for “does Bible forbid plural marriage”: LINK

I’ve already said that I’m aware the Bible seems to favor monogamy. That doesn’t make polyamory unbiblical, unchristian, or inherently sinful. The Bible, particularly the NT, seems to favor living a celibate, ascetic lifestyle, but not doing so isn’t sinful. Further, calling plural marriage adultery is begging the question, and I think you would have a hard time finding textual biblical support for that position.

God gave us free will and the ability to sin. God being the creator of all doesn't mean all is good. If it did, then there would be no bad and that doesn't make sense given that the world is full of sin.

what a ridiculous question, that dude is clearly not joining my family on a vacation. His entire life is a dumpster he is in the process of soaking in gasoline just awaiting the spark to light it aflame and I do not want my life in any way close to his.
