I think having a list of questions will come off as an interrogation. Maybe it's just me, or maybe it's just my in-laws, but if I start asking multiple questions, or insisting on answers or clarifications, I get a accused of ambushing/trapping/steamrolling/interrogating, whatever. Even if it's just me trying to get my husband to give an example of applying that day's sermon to his life while we're at his parent's house for Sunday lunch. :glare:
ETA: What does the Renaissance have to do with polygamy? I'm only on book one of SOTW, so my history education isn't there yet, but was there really so much polygamy back then? If not, where is the idea coming from, and what does it have to do with their historical lifestyle?
