Entry number 7 concerns the Koran's allowing Muslims to have up to four wives and encouraging Muslims to marry widows ---
In Exodus 21:10, a man can marry an infinite amount of women without any limits to how many he can marry. In 2 Samuel 5:13; 1 Chronicles 3:1-9, 14:3, King David had six wives and numerous concubines. In 1 Kings 11:3, King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines. In 2 Chronicles 11:21, King Solomon's son Rehoboam had 18 wives and 60 concubines. In Deuteronomy 21:15 "*If a man has two wives*, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons...." Polygamy in Christianity >From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygamy_in_Christianity#mw-head> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygamy_in_Christianity#p-search> There are numerous examples of polygamy in the Old Testament <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Testament>, but it is generally not accepted by modern Christianity <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity>. Some Christians actively debate whether the New Testament <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Testament> or Christian ethics <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_ethics> allows or forbids polygamy and there are several Christian views on the Old Covenant <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_views_on_the_Old_Covenant>. This debate focuses almost exclusively on polygyny <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygyny> (one man having more than one wife) and not polyandry <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyandry> (one woman having more than one husband). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygamy_in_Christianity On Friday, November 13, 2015 at 8:46:03 AM UTC-6, Travis wrote: > > > > > > > > > Using the Sex Drive to Create Violence <http://www.citizenwarrior.com/> > > [image: Description: Link to Citizen Warrior] > <http://www.citizenwarrior.com/> > ------------------------------ > > Posted: 13 Nov 2015 01:31 AM PST > > *We received the following email a few days ago, and it contains a good > point worth sharing:* > > *[image: Description: > http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aOexL6nV5Ts/VkWt3Q2NdxI/AAAAAAAAFUg/IS_w7G9Oq2s/s320/hamas%2Bsoldiers%2Bready%2Bto%2Bdie%2Bfor%2Bvirgins.jpg]* > > <http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aOexL6nV5Ts/VkWt3Q2NdxI/AAAAAAAAFUg/IS_w7G9Oq2s/s1600/hamas%2Bsoldiers%2Bready%2Bto%2Bdie%2Bfor%2Bvirgins.jpg> > > I just finished reading, for probably the 20th time, CW's invaluable > article, *The Terrifying Brilliance of the Islamic Memeplex* > <http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2007/10/terrifying-brilliance-of-islamic.html>. > > Today's re-read sparked a thought of a possible addition to entry number 7. > In fact, I think an entire separate article could be written on this > premise.
