    Two (Plus) Tangents from JOA's Thread

    Hi there. Just replying to your statement that Christianity... " is full of people who fail at opening their hearts and minds to different sexualities and genders because they don't want to hear or learn anything that challenges them. " ~Quoting Opalescent For me, mindedness is rooted in...

    Both partners on NRE - dangerous?

    If you are referring to me, I just want to clarify that limited time was not my point. If you are not, please excuse me. ;)

    Polyamory as a modality for spiritual growth

    I hear what you are saying: that the ups and downs of multiple intimate relationships (or even the ideology of it) lends itself to interesting insights into one's and another's psyche and the whole realm of human relating. But it's also playing with fire. Fire can be life-saving and...

    Both partners on NRE - dangerous?

    This is why I believe in polyfidelity and marriage. There is no good answer to this. Both of you pursuing loves outside the existing relationship obviously weakens your relationship to each other, which is risky to that relationship. Bringing a person into the existing relationship and living...

    God is love, love is God. In all its forms. Simple as that.

    Let's Talk About Sex...

    Oh , my. Hello. God made sex to be a pleasurable expression of love between a man and a woman, so they do go together. It's just that man has perverted that into SEX being the all pervasive holy grail. I'm sure you get what I am saying. I am speaking against sex being the holy grail, and...

    Wearing a ring

    Yes, I understand that for sure! I have always seen things differently from most people also. It's a good practice to tune in to whether it's hiding out of a sense of spiritual discord, or just being private. The former might manifest as your circle of intimates becoming smaller, or not...

    Let's Talk About Sex...

    Seems like you are a bit obsessed about sex. I would counsel you and your partners to focus on love, and the sex will follow. If it doesn't, it doesn't really matter anyway. It's just sex. You can make love without having sex.

    Trying to ease insecurity in my relationship... advice please?

    Sounds like you might lose AA if you keep giving in to your wife's irrational fears. Are you the man or not? Tell her the way it is, and move on with AA. She will see along the way you can be true to both. Selah.

    Wearing a ring

    I understand how you feel and have been there many times, and still occasionally struggle with it. But. When you find yourself wanting to hide something, that is usually because it has a shameful or evil root. Truth and Love are usually concepts that one wants to shout from the rooftop. I...

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    Bumping Thread~Christian Theologian Just revisiting. I hope people here will respect my spiritual beliefs and personal expressions as I respect others. I do have professed bias toward God, including Jesus, and the Bible as the absolute truth of life. God is the only judge, and I try to...

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    My response is for all, I just chose to address you as I find your posting style the most inviting. I encourage all to address my post, as they wish. Just for note: There is a law that states that a ruler shall not multiply wives for himself, nor shall his people multiply wives for him...

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    So much to argue, so little point. :p

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    I made that name when I was still a pagan, and it is more convenient to use it as my pseudonym now, than to make up a new one, for forums such as this. It's all a subset of "sexual" though. Who you love is who you love, regardless of who you want to sex with. It's still a primitive desire...

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    Thank you so much for your response. It has given me much to think about. I believe fully that the Bible of old is still relevant and wonderful today, in all of its aspects, old testament and new. You have corroborated for me, and brought to light something I knew but could not yet see...

    I believe God is not opposed to Polygamy and Polyandry

    But I pretty much don't wanna share. Unless I am 2nd wife or something.

    BDsm

    tl;dr It's just a little thread amongst a forum where hundreds of threads are started every month. Can anyone say "micromanagement"? I had expected more from a "poly" community than these petty complaints about thread location, thread existence, etc. More openness. And, yes, I am quite...

    BDsm

    Meh, I disagree. I think anything that promotes discussion and communication is good. Isn't that a poly concept after all-- open communication? I've already stated that BDSM is too broad a category. All kinds of detailed threads are started on here. I see no reason a D/s thread is out of place.
