Gary Crowton would be saddened to know that he lost a relative he never knew about.

As for your "challenge", are you asking for a revelation as proof that JS practiced polyandry? What does that have to do with history? Looks like a poorly attempted dodge. And BTW, Bushman was not the first one to write about JS's polyandy. Not by a long shot.

Exactly. Which is why it is embarassing to see Tex paint it as a polemic.

Indy, did you read that the authors admitted to at least 4 polyandric relationships, with one possibly being sexual?
I think Bushman puts the number of polyandric wives at 8 but I could be mixing up my facts as it's been a long time since reading the book. I think it's safe to say on top of being a polygamist he was a polyandrist. Agree or disagree? Now that we are in agreement, why wouldn't Joseph consummate these marriages? |

I'm not necessarily looking for revelatory of proof of polyandry (although it's absence should tell you something). I'm looking for scriptural evidence that Joseph was guilty of some of the beliefs/acts/teachings and the corresponding divine disdain/reproval/punishment suggested by the hypothesizing in this thread. I'm certainly not painting Bushman's work as a polemic, although you seem intent on stuffing those words into my mouth. Moreover, reading the book will not likely change my opinion, but I plan on doing so eventually. I suspect were I to read it and then post the same opinions, your anti-Tex accusation dial would just rotate from "you are ignorant" to "you are blind/stupid." There's not really room here for me to legimately disagree. Last edited by Tex; 05-01-2007 at 12:09 AM. |
