Polygamy: If God Allow Animals, Why Not Us Humans? by AloyEmeka9: 7:50pm On Dec 10, 2008 |
If God allow animals to practice polygamy, why not us humans especially Africans?. You'll see a cock colonizing three hens or a he goat with five she goats. Some goats cross the boarder and mate with sheep(inter-racial mating). Why are we not allowed by God to practice polygamy according to our culture just like he allowed animals that are lower than us?. I don't support polygamy please but I was wondering why God should forbid us from doing that and allow animals to do it. |

Are U comparing Humans to animals? Do animals have the same type of knowledge as Humans? |

Aloy.Emeka:First and foremost, my own God does not forbid polygamy, up to 4 wives for MAN. But this is not forgetting to tell you that your analogy lacks logic. You could as well argue that if animals mate openly, then what's wrong in human beings having sex on the street. Think of saner topics please. |

Jarus: He was not refering to allah, maybe he didn't make it clear. I'm sure he's not expecting contributions from shango and amadioha worshippers either. He 's talking of the God that says this after the creation of man. Genesis 2:24 (ESV) 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. which Jesus later quoted in matthew. Matthew 19:4–6 (ESV) 4 He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to[b] his wife[/b], and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two but one flesh |

Jarus:Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Did God approve up to four husbands for a woman if He is a just God? Can you think of saner answers please? |

To u guys quoting god, sorry to disappoint u, all these talk of my god said this, well the reality is, they are all the saying and quotes of fellow men who claim to be God`s representatives on earth, claims that can never be proved. Religion is man made. To get back to the issue, I believe if women are allowed to do the same and the parties involve are happy with it, I see no problem with it. I personally wouldn`t do it because of the complications that it brings. . |

As long as all the parties involved are in agreement, and the man has the mental and financial capability to handle the situation, I have no problem with that. I am not sure though why anyone would marry more than one wife these days when one wife alone is almost a full time job if you believe true marriage. Nowadays, I cringe when I think about having more than two children. Suggesting more than one wife to me is like asking me to take a good look at my neck without a mirror. |
