Should properly read "you are introducing..." or contracted to read "you're introducing"


If you intended to use "your" it should read "your introduction of..."

I luv it! You assert your ignorance of grammar over my knowledge of grammar. Look up gerund, man, and stop wasting my time.

Great! Adultery was featured in the Code of Hammurabi. What does adultery mean to you?

You mean this? What do you think that has to do with the discussion?
If the wife of a man has been caught lying with another man, they shall bind them and throw them into the waters. If the owner of the wife would save his wife then in turn the king could save his servant."[27]

Yup. There! I've "proved" my claim in the same way you "proved" your counterclaim.

You once again fail to even come close to comprehending the burden of proof but then you never even read your own links either
 
Angel said:
Exactly. I studied and taught grammar for years. Your correction is evidence of ignorance of grammar. Look up gerund.

You make a counterclaim, the burden of proof is yours.
 
Angel said:
There you go! And what is it about marriage that made adultery an offense?
Click to expand...

The fact that those who are married (specifically women according to the Hammurabi code) were not supposed to have sex with those they were not married to.
You can be in a polygamous marriage and commit adultery by having sex with someone you are not married to.

So there was something about marriage like a promise or obligation -- whether for both or just the woman is immaterial to the point -- of sexual exclusivity, yes?
 
Angel said:
Yup, you must support your counterclaim -- can you? won't you?

Already did but you refuse to read
You however havent done anything but post links that dont support you claims

you cannot because your claim is nonsense based on a complete lack of any education in science that you are trying to use

Which can occur outside of marriage and not all adultery is punished, Heck it isn't all considered wrong, often only the female can be accused of adultery
Point remans monogamy doesn't require marriage and marriage doesn't require monogamy

Nor necessarily did so historically, as I pointed out earlier.

but -the need for paternal care
therefore, -monogamy
therefore, -marriage

monogamy→sexual dimorphism

I'm doing conceptual analysis; you're doing google searches and talking points. Your posts are irrelevant.
