AnneWimsey replies on Aug 24, 2020:

@ildar717 if the King could have a bunch of wives & "official girlfriends" there cannot be much against it in the "word of gawd" or prophets would, as they did frequently on other topics, show up to denounce him, and they did not! Many many kings indulged themselves, as did Abraham & etc. Lot married((or at least hadchildren by) both of his daughters........his wife being conveniently turned to salt..... Annnnnndd How is answering your question with biblical references being "snarky", exactly?

An interesting read. I actually came across a lady a few month ago who said she was anti-suffrage. Basically, she wants to stop feminists voting. "In this day and age?", I thought, but I kind of understand where she comes from after reading this article. Thank you for sharing.

@FearlessFly I do search for the best price on an item, After i check my own home & maybe a few yard sales. And I consider the info they gather goes for Naught most times. Case in point, my ONE resin-wicker porch chair, about 7 or 8 years old, is badly failing, and this is a good time to buy porch furniture so they can make room for skis. So, I look around & after a few hours I find a nice one for a nice price + free shipping. It will be here Monday. So what shows up all over on every site I visit for the next few weeks? Resin porch chairs. I needed One I got One. Are they using those advertising dollars & info wisely? Productively? I don't think so....
