other respects this individual may be, man,
woman, serving - maid, minister of state, merchant, barber, student, etc. — this individual exists before God — this individual who perhaps would be vain for having once in his life talked with the King, this man who is not a little proud of living on intimate terms with that person or the
other, this man exists before God, can talk with God any moment he will, sure to be
heard by Him; in short, this man is invited to live on the most intimate terms with God!
I
hear all of the time that the Muslim faith is non violent and that it is only the extremist who are radical... yet, let's look at every country that is ruled by Muslims... They are intolerant to

Deuteronomy 17 If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or
woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant; 17:3 And hath gone and served
other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded; 17:4 And it be told thee, and thou hast
heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel; 17:5 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that

If a
woman couldn't breastfeed because of lack of support or lack of maternity leave or social pressure and used formula and made her peace with it and moved on, then

others with what she did not have, I think there is some pain (that she didn't have it) and anger (why should they get it when I didn't) that is a legitimate reaction that needs to be addressed before moving on.
There are more than a few upsides to a polygamous arrangement that

other scandals).

other women having natural births.
Not every man wants to sleep with a
woman right away, and not every man who sleeps with a
woman right away won't want to keep seeing her and maybe even commit to her (and, despite Evan's insistence about not wanting to
