  which really makes you wonder, why on earth did god give the angels testosterone? Does testosterone have some other use in angels and being horny for earth girls is just a nasty side effect? Should I be concerned that there is a bunch of angels up there lusting after me right now? I mean. I know they can't become humans anymore but does that mean that some are just voyeurs now? Could my gaurdian angel secretly just be trying to get into my pants? You would think god could come up with a better plan, him being omnipotent and all.

  In providing for man's sexual need, I think God was so merciful in that he did not want a woman's usefulness as a future mother to go to waste. Look, there were many wars and lots of men were killed. Imagine women left without husbands! Even today, some societies like in Rwanda, alot of men were killed during genocide. More women today are without husbands. These days, economic reasons is making it harder to have more women. The western society is slowly making it allowable to have a mistress.

  {Snowbird and I disagree on certain (ok, a lot) points, but she's a sweetheart. It's a friendly banter :)}

  {Yeah, I thought what i posted was a little to much too.}

  {But I also think calling someones well thought out, well presented thoughts "funny" a little to much.}

  ASINAC, I suggest you sheath your claws until you're cognizant of the camaraderie that exists between some posters.

  Thank you.

  NVL, thank you for clearing up that little matter.

  Dagney, the point I was trying to make is that, in the grand scheme of things, men having more than one wife seemed to have been the least of God's concerns. That is all.

  For some reason, I can't do quotes, bolding, or highlighting today.

  Nah, JC followed the Law as every Jew did, especially being raised as a Jew.

  And yet he and his folowers were accused of breaking it, over and over again.

  Men made gods in their image, to justify the practices they embraced, to sanctify the barbarism they practiced.

  Even IF they didn't "make Gods", they sure used them to justify their crap.

  Just like the Christians that toss out the parts of the Bible they don't like? ;)
