Take Brigham Young, for example...55 wives...but only 57 kids...Essentially one child per mom...hardly even close to the 19th-century "average."
I don't know about you, but 55 wives, 57 children, and one husband strikes me as a pretty large family. }8^D
On a serious note, each can draw his own conclusions, but it is, to say the least, pretty sketchy behavior for "men of God"...

Indeed!
(Of course, had those 55 women married a monogamist, you're talking HUNDREDS of kids!)
