Had a sisterwife over four years now. If wanting this had made me equipped I would have had no problems. There is really not much about monogamy that helps you with this. It changes pretty much everything. I have really never had a problem with...

I agree with a lot of what you believe, but you carry it too far. If Noah hadn’t separated himself from his neighbors and followed a revelation that no one else received, he wouldn’t have built the ark. If Moses hadn’t kept going up against the...

There is a Bell Curve for anything, with abuse on either side of the center. I wish that the term patriarchy meant a balanced, Biblical male leadership. But alas, it doesn’t. It simply means male leadership, so toxic patriarchy is simply a...

Sometimes the situation reaches a point where we try to apply the lesson from Proverbs; Where there is no wood, the fire goes out; And where there is no talebearer, strife ceases (Proverbs 26:20). Rather than continuing to pour fuel on the fire...
