Quick question

Posted on | March 23, 2009 | Comments Off

I have a question that has been nagging at me for a little while now. Lately, the topic of polygamists in N.A. have been in the news, the latest here in Bountiful, BC, Canada. A man has been arrested for allegedly having 20 wives.

My question is to all these groups that advocate polygamy: Can a woman have multiple husbands (lord knows why she would want that but hey let’s be fair here)?

These groups push for men to have multiple wives but I never see them pushing for a woman’s right to have multiple husbands. One group goes so far as to say having more than one wife is the only way a man can get into heaven. To my knowledge this belief only extends to men. This is overt sexism at work here folks. If any laws are changed to allow multiple partners, let’s make sure women get equal rights here – as many husbands as their sanity can stand. And while we are at it, make sure the law states that the husbands must help with the clean up and raising of children etc. Ever notice how the men that advocate multiple wives tend to sit on their asses and let the women do all the work around the house, as though God spoke to them personally and said “Oh by the way, I forgot the 11th commandment. Here it is: Women shall work like donkeys cleaning and mending their entire lives while Men shall sit about like petty princes”.

Ah, nice to know religion can still be manipulated by the self-righteous.
