Polygamy and Islam

http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=oddlyEnoughNews&storyID=2006-12-07T161451Z_01_JAK17807_RTRUKOC_0_US-INDONESIA-POLYGAMY.xml&pageNumber=0&imageid=&cap=&sz=13&WTModLoc=NewsArt-C1-ArticlePage2

Yet another reason why God never intended for Adam and Eve to be Adam and Eve and Jill and Betty and Suzy and Debbie...

I think Jesus says it pretty clearly in Matthew--God didn't intend for divorce or polygamous relationships. Our poor relationships in this life reflect the poor relationship we have with our Creator.

When we try to do it "our way" it almost always winds up a shambles. Perhaps this outcry against polygamy will be the undoing of Fundamentalist Islam?
