Two Eves

Post by _Bob Loblaw »

In another thread, someone mentioned the possibility of having a temple film with two Eves in it. Made me wonder, if plural marriage was ordained and commanded of God, why did Adam have only one wife? If the purpose of marriage is to multiply and replenish the earth, more Eves would have made sense.

Absolutely, and it would have given Adam a little more incentive and reward to kick start this mortality thing.

Which Eve is hotter? Blonde Eve, brunette Eve or old lady Eve in the SLC live sessions?

Discuss amongst yourselves.

I'll post pics of all three later.

You know, that makes a lot of sense. If polygamy was so important, why didn't God start it from the get go?

Brunette Eve has hotter. No offense to the old lady Eve in the SLC temple. I am sure she was lovely back in her day

Actually, for optimal reproduction more Adams and Eves would be the route to go.

Women who have their own mate have more offspring than women who share a mate.

Brunette, hands down, if you ask me. And if you got at just the right angle, you could almost catch a glimpse of nip through the bushes. :lol:

I was always disappointed as soon as I realized the film was the one with the blonde Eve. Seriously. I thought about it every time I went to the temple.

Well, except the SL Temple, of course. Somehow, silver blue just never did it for me.

I watched the film from the early 90s. I believe Eve was blonde, with an 80s hairstyle. She was pretty hot. Made me feel funny down there. I don't remember any others.

The ones from the 60's had a blonde Eve and brunette Eve, with 60s hair styles. Loved the kitsch factor.

I thought he did. I'm serious. He just had to wait until the daughters got older. I swear I've read something like that somewhere. Probably Brigham Young.
