Interesting arguments, but I don't think they will convince many people.

That being said, I would much rather see a polygamous marriage than a homosexual marriage.

It isn't just the Muslim men killed in battle whose widows have to be "taken care of" but, as you correctly point out, the very nature of Islam which nurtures this woman-hating psychological disease. Islam, as a totalitarian political movement masquerading as a religion (like what Hitler's followers would have become if he had only thought to make the Nazi Party the Nazi "religion") has as its entire purpose the domination of the entire world under their heel. Mohammed the "prophet" started his career by massacring 900 Jewish men in Yathrib, Arabia (now known as Medina) and enslaving their widows and daughters and sisters into "marriage" to his crazed Muslim followers. The same thing has been going on for over a thousand years. In southern Russia and in many other parts of Eastern Europe, entire cities would be conquered by this totalitarian political movement, the men slaughtered, and the women forced into "marriage". The only reason for polygamy was because of the animalistic nature of the Islamic storm troopers throughout history.

Speaking of which, think about the basic premise behind the story of Scheherazade and the 1001 Arabian Nights.

1. Adultery is a sin and neither my husband nor I practise it.

2.We have three adopted children. There are something like ten million orphans in the world, and most of them can be adopted.

3. It is a scientific fact that there are 4 boys born for every girl born. They must be killing off their males in some bizarre way in the muslim world - could it be jihad and suicide bombings are taking a toll?
