We’re not talking about the same thing, you and I

I am not talking about whoremongery, uncontrolled sex and unethical behavior towards other people.

There are people in this world who use others for their gain, who manipulate others out of their own twisted sense of fun, there are people who are themselves tortured by their past and torture others.
I agree with you that there are people without God or any sense of morality in mind and that they bow to the will that is between their legs, that they bow to the part of themselves that wants money, prestige or status at the expense of other people. They practice idolatry and worship selfishness.

I am not talking about them.

I am talking about the people who are making the conscious decision to enter a commitment that will last for the majority of their lives or until the day they die. I am talking about people who have discovered love, companionship, loyalty, self-fulfillment and partnership with more than one person simultaneously, and I am talking about people who want to legally commit to each other.

I am talking about serious, responsible, conscientious and mutually respecting people.

I am talking about the need to protect group marriage unions and the children who would be born into such unions.

I am talking about the need to protect the people in such unions, because just like in monogamous marriages, in plural ones there are cases of sickness of one of the partners, someone gets into an accident, or — just like in some monogamous marriages — there are cases of abuse that need to find legal support and help within the framework of the legal system.

The children who grow up in such unions will follow morality and they won’t go astray if they grow up in a loving and stable environment, if they learn to be kind, good and well-meaning towards people around them. They will learn morality and be good people to others. They will have goodness and morality in their heart.

In my understanding of God, you are a moral and good person when you are happy and kind to others, when you help others, support others, take care of the world around you, treat people ethically, treat as you would like to be treated, treat others as you would like the world to be. You don’t need to name or believe in God, to follow a good path.

In my understanding of what God is — namely, good and morality, responsibility and conscience, love and compassion— I am perfectly well having God in mind when I want to find a way to help and protect others.

In my understanding of God, more than two people entering a marriage for reasons of truthfulness, love, companionship, partnership, loyalty and respect, and if they do it consciously and with honest intent, they have God and morality in mind, because they are good people—it is just maybe so that they do not have the God in mind you have in your understanding of the Bible.

That is what I am talking about.

Have a nice day,
Delia
