Re: What western country will b the first 2 allow multiple member marria

lol..

Jesus Christ those countries are incredibly weak across the board, but fking Sweden seems to take it to a new level..

Re: What western country will b the first 2 allow multiple member marria

Belgium, De Nederlands, or one of the Scandinavian countries.

I don't think there's much impetus for it though, and if they're anything like America, the issues related to divorce/custody, tax, and estate laws would be a nightmare.


So it goes.

Re: What western country will b the first 2 allow multiple member marria

I was thinking of that group as well. It will help if Christianity is all but extinct.

The legal issues won't be much different. We have laws that govern 3-person business relationships as well, and it isn't difficult.

Today we have families where the two spouses have multiple exes, children from them all, (and with others), businesses owned by one spouse but not the other, property which is held communally and property held individually, etc. This is just one more little wrinkle.

"Let us look at some of the verses from the Old Testament that allow polygamy:

In Exodus 21:10, a man can marry an infinite amount of women without any limits to how many he can marry.

In 2 Samuel 5:13; 1 Chronicles 3:1-9, 14:3, King David had six wives and numerous concubines.

In 1 Kings 11:3, King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.

In 2 Chronicles 11:21, King Solomon's son Rehoboam had 18 wives and 60 concubines.

In Deuteronomy 21:15 "If a man has two wives, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons."

In Matthew 22:24-28, the Jews referred to Deuteronomy 25:5 from the Old Testament where it states that if a woman's husband dies, and she didn't have any kids from him, then she must marry his brother regardless whether he had a wife or not. When the Jews brought this situation up to Jesus in Matthew 22:24-28, Jesus did not prohibit at all for the childless widow to marry her husband's brother (even if he were married). Instead, Jesus replied to them by saying that we do not marry in heaven, and we will be like angels in heaven (Matthew 22:30).

So in other words, if Jesus allowed for a widow to marry her former husband's brother even if he were married, then this negates the Christians' claim about the Bible prohibiting polygamy. A man can be one flesh with more than one woman. In the case of Matthew 22:24-28, the man can be one flesh with his wife, and one flesh with his deceased brother's wife. Also keep in mind that Exodus 21:10 allows a man to marry an infinite amount of women, and Deuteronomy 21:15 allows a man to marry more than one wife.

I think in the OP's question "will be" refers to the future, not the distant past.

It's been pretty obvious for awhile that a federal judge will start the ball rolling, with the exact same arguments judges recently used to create the new marriage laws.

-too late many already do including the US

Re: What western country will b the first 2 allow multiple member marria

yes, the mormons might push for it and the us will be the first

Re: What western country will b the first 2 allow multiple member marria

The US might "win" that one if a federal judge decides to write the law.
