[Appalled but Not Surprised]

The Holy Bible is polygamous from cover to cover.>>>

Oh really?

>>
4"Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'[a] 5and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'[b]? 6So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."

7"Why then," they asked, "did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?"

8Jesus replied, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery."

10The disciples said to him, "If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry."

11Jesus replied, "Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. 12For some are eunuchs because they were born that way; others were made that way by men; and others have renounced marriage[c]because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."

So they are no longer two, but one.

This deserves repeating: "So they are no longer two, but one."

Where's the reference's coming from, I think you can do a better job as to where these verses are coming from.

Also on verse 8 does it say "....divorce your wives....."(plural),or is that a typeing error and should by singular wife.

[ItsOurTimeNow]

Not to mention every single reference to the beauty of the spouse, the blessing of the marriage, etc is all singular text. "Whoever finds A WIFE finds favor from the Lord", etc.

Biblical examples of polygamy have all led to disaster. God's foundation is one man - one woman. Anything else is contrary to His designs.
