I cannot for the life of me see a good reason for it.
Enlighten me. Simple terms please, for a simple mind.
Quoting: o~SmallCircles~o The reason is: "why not". If you want it and it's possible, then why not? Well, whatever happened to 'necessity being the mother of invention'? How is or was polygamy ever necessary? Back when life centred around necessities, that is. What's the survival/evolutionary benefits of polygamy? Or, is it some form of greed/lust/promiscuity?I must be ultra conservative, I think. There are lots of reasons that you can find for the inception of polygamy. Regardless it ends the same as everything else in this world.....to control and be superior out of a need for greed and lust. I have first hand knowledge of people who were raised in polygamy. There is not one positive thing I can find that any person brought from the experience. I only see pain and suffering - emotional issues that are insurmountable. Regardless of it's intended purpose, polygamy only produces effects that are extremely harmful to mental and emotional health of the women and children that are a part of it. Should you ever speak with a woman or child who has been in this situation, they will all tell you it's wonderful because they have been brainwashed to say and maybe even believe what they are told.
