I'm not sure if having more wives is how to reach heaven. It might bring a man closer to heaven ... but it also might bring him closer to hell! I'll stick with monogamy.

3. There's a certain degree of confusion around the question of whether Christianity should be categorized as Monotheism or as Polytheism.

[majes.tytyty]

Good work!

And your point about Christianity is interesting. For a start, it holds that the father, the son, and the holy spirit are all "gods," in a way. And there is even a verse in the bible that says, "Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your Law, 'I have said you are 'gods'?"

[jplaughing]

I suppose, initially, they were like "The book say there's only The Lord, but Jesus said he himself was the only path, if they are separate then it's blasphemy, oopsie!".
Early church wasn't exactly dealing with sophisticated, critically thinking populations.

[majes.tytyty]

Good point.

1. Polygamist:
   I don't think I'd make for a very good polygamist because my heart may not allow it.

3. Polytheism.
   "Polytheism, the work of the devil, will lead your unsuspecting children, who are currently innocent and pure, into a world of sexual depravity that goes directly against the will our god should you let them stray from our nest," said the polymath tied to the chopping block.

Your #3 is plagiarized directly from here ... https://www.ldoceonline.com/Religion-topic/polytheism

Your #2 is plagiarized directly from here ... https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/polymath

Do NOT plagiarize. That's NOT the way to learn, and that's not the way to earn. And it's unethical and illegal.
