How Does Religion Mix with Polyamory?

Why are so many Pagans poly, but not all of them? True, the first Neo Pagan religion to be recognized in the US was based on Heinlein’s novel Stranger in a Strange Land which had a poly theme throughout. But
many other pagan groups had different origins are equally poly. The Old Testament is filled with multiple
relationship references like Jacob’s four wives, yet both Jews and Christians behave as though having
more than one romantic partner is a sin against God. Why were so many Poly organizations heavily
Jewish, particularly the leaders-in the 1970’s and 80’s? Are Puritan attitudes still effecting our lifestyles
choices? Bring your questions and any answers you may have to this meeting.

This is a family friendly event, so please feel free to bring the kids.
