Damn Rick rolled.

I mean I do that when I do my schoolwork but these debates are supposed to be for fun you know. I think Wikipedia should be allowed as a source so long as the article itself isn’t obviously wrong and biased.

In some ways yes. It will say that Christians oppressed "Muh poor innocent brown Muslims and pagans!" But for inter Christian wars and conflict it's not that bad. I mean what specifically are you saying that I linked is wrong?

I don't think it's a weird thing to argue for? I mean alot of this board is made up of political/philosophical/theological debates. One it does not say Zipporah died. She MAY have died, well she may have not died. Again you haven't shown how the Ancient Israelites were opposed to polygamy so...

Actually I did not bring up polygamy. I made a joke about harems and women dressing up like Jazmine from Aladdin, because someone posted about a porn video with Muslim ladies. Then someone else brought up the polygamy causing problems. Then I continued the debate.

The Bible does not say that having more than one wife brings reproach. Moses had at least two wives Zepporah and a Kushite woman The video goes over this. You need to define what you mean by reproach. It is being used to indicate that the person is squeaky clean and society has nothing they...

Is everyone an overseer? The whole point of an overseer is that there is a hierarchy, they are in charge and rule over others. The concept of a "priesthood of all believers" is pure eisegesis. That passage deals with Bishops of the Church not every male Christian only those in the Church who...

No we don't because nowhere in the Bible itself does it prohibit polygamy. Any claim that it does is on it's face bad faith and false.

I'm aware that it is the ideal shown Biblically. But you don't HAVE to be ideal. After all some interpretation of scripture the true ideal is celibacy and the acceptable 2nd place for those who can't do it is a chaste monogamous marriage. Also it's not just the Arabs who had polygamy in...

The text and narrative does not treat it as that. David was sinful for killing another man to take his wife not the many wives he had before Bathsheba. Solomon was wrong for allowing and joining his wives in idol worship not having multiple wives. The correct translation is the king will not...

But the ancient institution of marriage does include polygamy. Like kings in the Old Testament had many wives good kings even like Solomon and David. Heck even Jacob. If he was not married to both Leah and Rachel which one was the “real” wife?

Yup I think Matt wake said something like that.

It seems like America and its toxic culture is the problem, you can go to another nation to get a good girl. But unless her values are rock solid like religious, then when she gets to America she’ll get corrupted into whoredom.

Are you talking practically? There are practical bennefits that marriage gives like being able to see your spouse in the hospital and inheiritance. There are some places that have common-law marriage where you get those just by "holding hands with someone and living like you are married." In...

Why not what gives the government "authority" it simply has power. But if some other group took power they would be the new government and the former loyalists would have no authority.
