Polygamy is biblical. That can’t be denied.

If you were half as clever as you think you are, you’d be dangerous. LOL.

In the same way that slavery and murder are Biblical. Yes, polygamy IS mentioned in the Bible. The keyword in my statement was "condoned."

You are only exactly as clever as you appear to be.....unfortunately.

Adultery is 'biblical' too, but it's frowned upon in the bible.

Seems pretty clear to me that God's plan was for "a man to leave his father and mother and cleave to his WIFE (not wives) and the TWO (not three or four) shall become one flesh".

Further, there are multiple verses in the New Testament that specifically state that men in leadership positions in the church are to be the husband of one wife.

Seems pretty clear, God's preference is for monogamy.

Polygamy is “Biblical” in the sense that it ALWAYS ends badly.

God’s plan is CLEARLY monogamous marriage.
