I think we should learn how to live actual biblical principles before anyone attempts living any alternative form of marriage, let alone "traditional" monogamous marriage.

no, i actually wasn't. i just meant that understanding the princples of the gospel is important if you're gonna understand the context of anything biblically related.

Well reading a bit at the hermetic site, I stumbled across something about judgment and being our own judge/god of ourself. So understanding the big book seems like more of another way to tell people what and what not to do. And throwing stones is definitely not something anyone should do to another. Lol Don't compare your life to biblical times because we have gone through many changes over the thousands of years. Religion is clearly a passion for you.

Religion is clearly a passion for you. You couldn't be more wrong...you oughta know me better than that! Believe me, if I felt I could throw off the confines of a religious code and just invent my own, and have all of that be okay with God, I would. I'm very much inclined to do my own thing. That's why I seek and search through esotericism and other things for truth that fits harmoniously with what I already know in my heart to be true. I don't try to follow a particular religion because I have a "passion" for it, it's simply because I have a conviction of it and am bound to loyalty to it through that, whether I like it or not, whether it's easy or not. And it's not always easy and I don't always like every aspect of it, but it is what it is. True Religion isn't meant to be easy. This is something that a lot of people don't seem to understand about religious people - a lot of them aren't doing it because it's what they prefer, they're doing it out of a sense of trying to be obedient and humble and learn to submit to God's will happily and be at peace with what God has to offer, his way.

By passion I mean studying, seeking, learning of all types including occult info. I don't think God will shun you or condemn you for your own truths. You are your own woes enemy to judge and condemn yourself

In the Bible, much of our ancient history is revealed, yet concealed...
