from my experience; yes. unless of course the family has a maid that does all the cooking; cleaning; laundry; errands; etc; which would allow a parent to be a full time parent.0 -

I believe it. It was mentioned in developmental psychology.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire0 -

the one thing i've always stood for is equality. what is good for one is good for the other.
he detests being felt sorry for yet feels sorry for those who don't agree with him. i didn't find this funny; i found it sad.
i don't mind; nor have i ever opposed anyone feeling sorry for me because of my spirituality. i believe it's misplaced and misguided but just the same; i believe you feel how you feel and in this world of diminishing freedoms; i'll fight for my right to feel as i wish.
i guess you missed the point.0 -

i guess that explains the low divorce rate of polygamist families.0 -

And that's a contradiction in itself. If having a maid can produce the same supposed results as having two wives, then the second wife in the two-wife marriage isn't really a second wife, and therefore it is not truly a two-wife marriage in terms of child rearing.
Also, there are plenty of marriages where the father works while the mother stays at home and gets things done while the children are at school, so when the children come home from school, the mother is able to give attention to her children.
To say that a polygamist marriage provides better child rearing than "ANY" monogamous marriage is to be just plain naive.0 -

I agree. I'd totally be up for it.... Actually I don't see anything wrong with it.
If everyone was willing and happy...man that's like the perfect case scenario in life . King of the jungle. Seems to work out for a lot of animal species. I think most actually...
My take is it can't be unnatural if it's everywhere in nature...

onelongsong wrote:why do athiests have so much anger toward those of religion?
i'm going to say because some religions have twisted the truth behind God.religious threads here turn into athiest trying to prove those of religion are wrong. why?
because those people can't grab the concept of a perfect God, and also because people in general want to feel like their views are correct.where does this anger come from. if you tell someone of religion that you are athiest; they feel sorry for you and maybe pray for you; which is an act of compassion to them.
i don't feel sorry for athiests, and i don't pray for them either. if they have a good heart, i appreciate that. i leave it up to God if He wants to reveal Himself to them.yet athiests can't wait to jump on someone trying to prove they're wrong. they disrespect that person and thier beliefs. are these the attributes of a "good" person?
i couldn't care less if an athiest jumps on me to try and prove me wrong. they are swimming against the current on that one. they can disrespect my beliefs ALL they want, i leave the outcome to God. however, if they are disrespectful/nasty, i wouldn't call them a "good" person.I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.0 -

i am not sure what to call myself. i used to call myself atheist but now am leaning more towards agnostic. i really dislike organized religions. why you might ask?
countless wars and lives have been lost because of a "belief" in something that can not be proven. most religious people that i have run into (even my best friend) have told me that i am going to hell cause i don't believe. meanwhile, i have probably lived a more "pure" life than most of them. is confessing sins better than not having any as a non-follower?
my religion is better than yours arguments are pointless. there is no physical evidence of any god yet everyone that believes, believe that they have the right god to follow. religion is just one more thing that people can use to discriminate against someone else. people have enough "obvious" differences. looking at Christianity and its various divisions is funny to me.
i try to enjoy life and make sure people do not get hurt by my actions or others actions for that matter. however i can have fun without worrying what my religions god will think of me!0 -

maybe you know more that psychologists and researchers. i guess you couldn't follow that the maid example was only an analogy to show how a monogimus home could get the same results. if you bothered to do the slightest investigating; you would have found that both mother participate equally. if i can use another analogy; it's like a tag team.hippiemom wrote:There are also families where everyone participates in getting the chores done. My kids helped me clean, they helped in the kitchen, they helped in the garden ... we were together, we enjoyed one another's company, and they were learning how to run a household. When I was doing a job that the kids couldn't help with, they were playing with friends or learning to entertain themselves. The idea that surplus moms are required for a happy family is a little nutty.
polygamist homes opperate the same way. the exception being that the kids learn more. partly due to having 2 teachers and two mums can offer twice the love as one.
i'd like to hear you explain how having 2 mums is any nuttier than 2 men. in fact; how is it different from a lesbian couple raising children? you support that. the only difference i see is that there's a third teacher bringing a male influence into the mix.0
