'Inborn moral standard"While I understand your logic on the subject, you DO realize that in Western nations where the law doesn't allow for polygamy, most Christians believe rather strongly that the Bible and Christianity call for monogamous marriage, right?
I found interesting what CS Lewis said on this subject in regards to the idea that humanity shares a basic moral standard that is inborn. He said that people may differ on whether a man may have one wife, or two or three, but they all agree that a man shouldn't simply be with any woman he likes, that he should make a commitment and take responsibility for his family, whatever type of formulation the culture he lives in specifies.
What a crock of shit!! Show me the DNA.
Why is this all about regulating the number of wives a man may have? Why no mention of the number of husbands a woman may take?
Because I'm not aware of any country in the world at this moment that legally allows polyandry, while quite a few allow polygyny.
