You went off on a tangent

I never stated anything about the marriage laws of Christianity, all I said was polygamy is illegal in the west.

I have read many articles in Islamic newspapers to include Malaysia, and several in the middle east where marrying 4 women is openly talked about. No matter what the Koran says, is it often practiced in Indonesia, Malaysia, Saudia Arabia, Qatar, and I'm sure many other islamic countries. No matter your take on the issue, facts around the globe tell me otherwise.

I need a lesson from you on how to read the Koran "properly". I guess by your implication, what the Koran says and what it means are two different things
