No Four Wives but one is Enough for a Decent person.

I love Religion but will not bring that issue at all.

I love the Family value of Americans. But how many Americans go by the Tradition of American Family Value. I lived & worked over a Decade in the American Society, I do know the very fabric of American Society.

Alas ! The Americans have forgotten their Standard tradition & Family Values. Once they used to be of the Family Value. That is the part of Old History. Many only 1% Americans follow and preserve their Family Value right this time.

I don't support any Marrige beyond One Wife. A Family starts with a wife only, then we have Children-one or two at the Max. This is norman Human Society.

If you desire more than One wife, you may go for that in Islam. You need the Consent of the Current & Future wife. You need to make Equal treatment to the both wives. It is NOT an easy job to do.

If you are Sex Hunger, you make Girl Friends even at age 50,60,70 or 80 too. The Girl Friend concept of Living Together for the Sex is not acceptable in any Decent Society but very much prevailed in Every Western Society, this is allowed & permitted by the Parents. So no more comments.

This is NOT the normal life.

Mr. James has discussed in detail about Polygamy. I would only say that go by the Decent Standard, the standard of the Value of the Old American Society, not the Society of the present day.
