polygamy too... and people scoff when conservatives suggest that allowing gay marriage means anything goes?
I understand Christian churches in Africa having to deal with converts to the faith who are polygamous, but I have never heard of outright endorsement as a solution.
This is not a new problem the Church from its very beginnings faced practices that were ingrained in a culture that were against the teachings of Christ. Some things could be given over the Christianity- like some of the days of pagan festivals being turned into Christian holy days. Others could not- infanticide and plural marriage for example. Not only is this policy anti Christian it is also racist as it assumes that Africans are incapable of following the moral standard set by Jesus.
