A plural marriage (one husband only of course) mirrors Jehovah's supposed spiritual family. sophos Posted at 9:55 pm on Dec. 3, 2011 Post from this position was omitted due to content violations Stormblazer Posted at 2:23 am on Dec. 3, 2011 Quote: from SpM at 4:20 pm on Dec. 2, 2011 Quote: from Stormblazer at 10:32 pm on Dec. 2, 2011 Quote: from Sarah Is Hot at 1:37 pm on Dec. 2, 2011 I am polyamorous, but also Atheist.

Intrinsic. Multiple relationships rely on openness, not restricting one gender but not another.

Specter Posted at 1:17 pm on Dec. 2, 2011 If this is a FLDS reference, I remember reading that they are building their "celestial army" for God, which is accomplished by having as many children as possible. More children=Larger celestial army=Happy God. So, in a sense, according to their beliefs, yes, sharing your husband does in fact bring you closer to God.
