What is your thought on marriage?

[Twilight Imperium]

If God is real, then I feel like somebody grabbed me and put me in a sadistic reality show.

It's not sadistic, since God has an inverse order: "Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them."

You're not doing a very good job of selling this.

[Albrenia]

So, about that marriage stuff...

Indeed, we are discussing polygamous marriage at the moment. Feel free to jump in, the more the merrier(!)

I don't really have a problem with polygamous marriage, in theory. So long as it's not just men or just women who get multiple spouses, and there's some way to sort out the legal mess if property disputes occur.

Also the usual thing of everyone involved having to be consenting adults.

[Petrolheadia]

Also, if there is/was no God, would polygamy be OK?

Or is it just bad because the guy above says so?

I am lesbian and married, yodda, yodda, yodda. And can Keshiland get any worse? Besides all the crap he has already done.

How a few biologists believe it should be, both males and females should have the ability to have 2 life partners instead of just 1, seeing as how humans aren't naturally/biologically monogamous.

I think it can work if its multiple wives, but not if its multiple husbands. Mostly when it comes to kids, You know whose is whose if there is 1 husband but if there are multiple then you don't and if something was to happen you would be screwed.

If they're one family, does it really matter whose kids are there?

There is a possible way to solve that, by making all the people in the marriage a "legal person", like a corporation. I mentioned it a few pages ago.

Just for the purposes of property, or like they all go to jail if one of them commits a crime?

Yes cause or else it will be very confusing for the child. Also can you imagine a divorce? HE IS MY KIDS! NO HES MY KID!

First, we can assume everybody is a parent.

Second, DNA paternity tests are a thing.

Just for property, it was purely hypothetical.

Sounds reasonable on the face of it.

IIRC, some biologists even believe that it would be healthier for each human/partner should have 2 partners instead of 1.

My goodness, how ridiculous our society is! We can't even be depraved anymore without using scientific justification. We can't say, "I have sex with people because I lust," but, "Because it's healthy!"

Give me some non-religious viable sources that show that consenting non-monogamous relations are bad, I'll wait.

I was going to say.

"DNA testing, how's it fuckin' work anyway?"

[Albrenia]

We need Maury Povich to sort this out.

I was trying to find an excuse as to why brother husbands would be terrible other then men being to egotistical to handle sharing a wife.

You do realize that the men could have their own wives along with the one they're sharing, right?

If we lived in a society where that happened it wouldn't be that complicated, as we'd all be used to it.

Eh, that's mostly for the OT, the NT is much more relaxed (You know, what Christians are supposed to be following, yet don't do a very good job at).

Because you are such a Christian and would know :^)

The complexity of a thing is not an argument against the existence of said thing.

I would be okay witbh single poligamy legalised. Not this 1 man/woman with 2 or more woman/men with 2 or more men/women in long chains or circles. We would need a new amendment just to sort out the legal prossess for that.
