What's Jehovah's View on Having More Than One Wife???
by minimus inif god's original plan was to have just one husband and wife and not many wives or concubines, why did he "allow" it?
this never made any sense to me.
solomon was "allowed" to have innumerable women.

Doogie, I never heard of the kneeling down thing but very interesting.

i think that whatever is acceptable at the time is what's acceptable to jehovah.
even 150 years ago it was not "proper" to be seen walking alone with someone of the opposite sex that was not your spouse (this would've no doubt been a reprovable offense had the JWs been around in their current form back then) and married people often (usually?) slept in seperate bedrooms (or at least seperate beds). nowadays, its ok to walk around with someone of the opposite sex but many feel its immoral to have casual sex with many anonymous partners. who knows, maybe in a couble of years, oral sex will be the new handshake... i read somewhere that in psalms and kings (solomon and david), when it says that someone "knelt down and did an act of obiesence" (sp?) to the king, this may have had...ahem...references to phallic worship. apparently that was acceptable to jehovah as well (if true, of course).
apparently many things were appropriate back then that are not now. jehovah appears to be a pretty hip fella. he keeps in step with the times.

mye:
lets say that i write a book today. this book will say that the world will end 'soon' in an unspecified fashion. you will know when the end is drawing close because of the pudding. it won't explain what is meant by 'pudding', just that pudding would somehow be involved. my book will also say that many will not believe in the upcoming pudding calamity. these unbelievers will say, "'There has never been a pudding calamity before, there will NEVER be one!'...WOE TO THOSE THAT DO NOT HEED THE PUDDING WARNING!!!" the book will go on will insinuate that those that do not believe in the impending pudding inspired doom are simply blinded by evil forces and need to put more faith in the "Unspecified Controllers of the Pudding."
you would probably call the book ludicrous and the predictions lunacy. ah, then you have PROVEN that i am a prophet because i said very clearly that some would not believe!
of course, you can see my dilemma with the bible.

But, doogie!!! By then it will be too late!!! Wake up, doogster! The world is headed for disasters!!!
yeah, that's the clever little bit of it, eh? be just vague enough to never be proven wrong. except, the other side is you'll never be proven right either. unverifiable and unfalsifiable. clever, but i'm not buyin.

God's prophets are into prediction, man
...and if you can name one end of the world prediction that has actually come true, i'm sure abaddon would be glad to retract his statement. until then, "lunatic" seems to apply.
