Some years ago I read that curious though it may seem, the 'Star of David' has been found in ancient sites throughout the world - in places as far away as India and China - even at native American ruins in South & Central America all predecessing the existance of the Jewish religion.
Now, in reading 'The DaVince Code', I found it interesting that the pre-ancient symbol for man was a triangle pointing up, while the symbol for woman was a triangle pointing down. This insinuates that the 'Star of David' is actually the symbol for the bonding of man and woman - the symbol of devote monogamy.
Being from New York, I've known quite a lot of homosexuals. I'm devotedly hetersexual and every homosexual that I've ever known has respected my hetersexuality - possibly losing interest in me socially, but other than that there has been no problem.
I am also aware that dedicated homosexuals are only a tiny percentage of the population - even in New York. I do not concieve of homosexuals as being a threat in any way to myself or my family. Additionally, I applaud homosexuals for their desire marry thereby humanizing their romantic relationships.
That being said, I find that the true conflict in soceity is NOT between homosexuals and heterosexuals, but between MONOGAMOUS and POLYGAMOUS.
Quite a few people that I've known - and unfortunately dated - seem to have tremendous tendencies towards polygamy. They change boyfriend or girlfriends, they cheat on spouses. They tend to get married and devorced quite a lot. They simply are not prone to be dedicated to a single person. They also tend not to be devoted parents either.
What worse is that these polygamous people also have a tendancy towards orgies. Something that I, and many other people find to be grotesque.
So while we debate homosexuality ad infinitum, we seem to have no label for the rather large percentage of the population that is prone to polygamy. Yet it is obvious that they influence our soceity tremendously.
It seems that monogamy became the norm for humanity very late in the anthropological calendar - and was noted thru the 'Star of David' everywhere. Monogamy, it seems, is the true 'new revolution' of human sexuality.
It is my belief that monogamy is the bedrock on which human social evolution is built. That which pulled us out of the darkness of primitivism and launched civilization.
So why is it that we have no name for or a discussion of people with strong polygamous tendancies? They seem to be a shadow force in soceity that is constantly pulling humanity back to primitivism.
