And NONE of the polygamous marriages in The Bible was a happy one but rather given over to grief and bastardization.

As I said....

Wow, then if Jacob had not had multiple wives then there never would have been the 12 tribes of Israel. So are you willing to re-think your position on good effects of polygamy?

I have head this thing about all polygamist marriages being bad in the OT but there may be two reasons for this:

1) It sounds good but is unsupported by facts.
2) Most marriages described in the OT were polygamist.
