Mormon Polygamist Fashion Parade

"Why do we believe in and practice polygamy? Because the Lord introduced it to his servants in a revelation given to Joseph Smith, and the Lord's servants have always practiced it. '
-Brigham Young, Leader of the Mormon Church

Whenever I see those joyous polygamist wives bursting from the courthouse I always want to sing this song.

Polygyny was allowed under Mosaic law. Jesus did not outlaw it at any time.

In the Old Testament Sarah was held as the ideal wife. She selected mistresses & concubines for her husand. In the New Testament it is said you are "Sarah's daughter" if you follow her example. Therefore, polygyny is biblical.

@1400deadwood Yes, and their outfits are HILARIOUS!

Sorry, where in the new testament did Jesus say that there are to be multiple wives or husbands? These FLDS women wear different colored dresses to signify which "man" they belong to. What, women are chattel now? Slaves? Is this a religion or some sort of Bizarro World freak show? To the outside world they appear all innocent because they wear prairie dresses and ugly shoes. In reality, they are forced to sleep around with different men as they are assigned and reassigned as ordered.

@mrcemetery Nope, not true at all.

[mrcemetery]

Isn't the New Testament supposed to be God's new covenant with his believers? Doesn't it supersede everything in the Old Testament? I'm not even religious AT ALL and even I knew that! I love how some religious people quote whatever they think backs them up without even knowing what it means.

@queenlivesforever "In reality"? How would you know? Have you ever talked to them? Don't assume the worst about people until you get to know them. Go ask them a little about what they believe.

@DavisMcDavis

LOL! Republicans say we are a Christian nation and if so, then they have no complaint against polygyny.

@1400deadwood The Bible must be followed just as much as we need to follow the teachings of Harry Potter And Winnie The Pooh and the Book of Mormon.

Sarah who selected mistresses & concubines for her husband was praised in the New Testament: 1 Peter 3:6; Gal 4:22,23; Heb: 11,11. You are "Sarah's daughter" if you follow her example according to biblical as opposed to Christian teaching.

It's all very simple - LDS, Catholicism, and Protestantism are all "Christian" teaching. Mosaic & Messianic law are all biblical teaching. There is a world of difference between mere Christian teaching as opposed to biblical teaching. The latter may not be very convenient in today's social-political climate. But in the Judgment Day all will have to answer for their failure to adhere to the Bible's law, not to human law.
