I read this quote from a patriarchal bloke. Seriously. I read it four times. I still don't know what the hell he is talking about. Someone please interpret this for me. Is he for or against polygamy. What does marital licensing from the state have to do with polygamy. What the hell is this guy saying!?
My favorite part:
Nice. He's asking questions about morality and then claims others have no moral authority. What the hell is he asking questions for then? If HE has moral authority in his life, he should know all the answers.
Yeah yeah... I know. You'll come back with "he's asking for interpretation from the Bible - God's word - which is the TRUE moral authority.
Tell that to the raped and murdered women, men, and children, upon God's orders, in that moral book. Tell that to the slaves that were not Jewish. Tell that to the millions and billions of people who didn't get the riddle of life just right, so they ended up dead and in hell. Tell that to homosexuals, whom God ordered murdered. Tell that to women who didn't scream while being raped - who also were ordered to be murdered because, obviously, they wanted it. (The man got to go free, by the way.)
Yeah...don't even begin to talk to me about moral authority while waving the Bible in my face.

Just these couple of sentences bring up lots of issues. I’m very interested in any opinions on this (as long as they are Christian). The others…I have no clue how to deal with people who don’t have a moral authority in their life. Go somewhere else.
