>polygamy" is NOT to be practiced in 
>this time and as long as men have such 
>perverted and sexual desires of sensuality,

The very reason that God made men desire sex, is so that they would take care of a woman and her children. The reason that God gave men sexual desires for more than one woman, is so that no woman would have to remain single if the sperm donor of her children happened to be gone for whatever reason.

>it will not be authorized of God.

God has never revoked his authorization of polygamy.

>I believe that in general men have to 
>become more honest and pure in heart 
>before it would be again authorized.

There are plenty of honest pure in heart men running around already. You don't honestly believe that the wicked men who have sex with anyone who happens to come along would actually marry their sex partners do you? The wicked will always be wicked. At least if polygamy were legalized, you would give these honest pure in heart men the chance to make more of a difference in the world.

>What women Truly and Honestly wants to 
>share her husband with another woman??

There are tons of women running around that would rather be the mistress of a rich married man, than be the wife of a poor working stiff. And there are gobs of married women, Hillary Clinton being but one example, who stick with their adulterous husband their whole lives, because they would rather share their husband than be alone.

>I know of NONE.

If you take the time to think about it, I am sure that you can name plenty of women who choose to share a man.

>Polygamy glorifies the man and puts him on 
>a pedestal. Where is the glory to the woman?

Does the ability to have a confidant that can really relate to you in your own terms, and a built-in, trusted caregiver mean nothing? Not to mention the flexibility it gives you to be more of the woman you were intended to be, and less the slave to the children or a man's attention.

>Suppose women were allowed to have 
>more than one husband?

I support that wholeheartedly.
