Now correct me if I'm wrong but didn't King David in the Old Testament have something like 700 wives? That being true there would seem to be some biblical precedent for polygamy and/or polyamory argements today.

Something more interesting is when it was decided when he was to old to be King..
When he was put with his most beautiful wives and he couldnt get it up anymore.

That was his son Solomon with all the wives and concubines...but...it doesn't change your point.
However, Christianity is not Judaism, and Jesus did not approve of polygamy. He said, "In the beginning God made them male and female and A man shall leave him father and mother and be united to his wife; and the two of them shall be one flesh."
Therefore....The Post-Christian West
