When Christianity
contradicts God there is something drastically wrong.

 This verse says God was a HUSBAND to THEM;

Jer 31:32 not according to the covenant that I cut with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which covenant of Mine they broke, although I was a
husband to them,
says Jehovah;

Some Christians say God had no wives but what part of husband or them is difficult to understand?

Oh, and do not hastily conclude that God was married to Israel's fathers, that would make God a homosexual or homoerotic,
which is not the case.
Read Ez.23 then read
Jeremiah 31:31-32.

"Them" in Jeremiah 31 refers to the two kingdoms of Israel seen as two sisters who both bore God children. This is all figurative but God does not engage in figurative wickedness.

"Christ only has one Bride", the monogamy only traditionalists cry but this makes the monogamy only position worse. Most Christians would acknowledge that Christ of the NT is Jehovah of the OT so it is Christ embracing the two sister Kingdoms of Israel as His wives in Jeremiah 31.

Oh dear, Gods own Word would thus ascribe about three wives for Christ, the two sisters of Jeremiah and "the church" of the NT. This tally does not including the New Jerusalem which is called "the bride, the Lamb's wife".

Media bias
All polygynous families are offended when certain networks banner "the face of polygamy" when they want to trumpet some child or wife abuse? See the TV said polygamy was bad for my health. These same media moguls are hypnotically silent when they telecast the same abuse on a much wider scale in monogamous families.
Ever seen;
Monogamous mother murders her children
or
Monogamous Pastor's wife shoots her monogamous husband.
Of course not, it's not newsworthy and who wants to poke the accusative finger at the majority.

Marriage structure does not produce evil within families. Most child sex offenders are monogamous mothers and fathers. Evil people in some marriages produce evil, and social services departments are hard pressed to deal with all the abuse in monogamous families.  Here is a reasonably balanced polygamy documentary:

Rosie O'Donnell HBO Family commercial on You Tube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkFr-rjjzlw
Here is a TV commercial designed to break down bigotry and prejudice in certain areas but avoids the remotest suggestion that a family could also be one Dad and three Moms. I guess "so many combinations" excludes polygyny and "it doesn't matter" if Gays and Lesbians have families but it does matter if Polygynists have families.

It's all ok, as long as he only married one at a time or cohabitated with one at a time.

Food for thought
In the United States some women are marrying younger men because in the 35-55 age group women outnumber men. War takes its toll. Many gulf war and Vietnam veterans are dying from brain disorders or sleeping under bridges.

Likewise in Israel wars have brought an imbalance; women outnumber men 4 to 1, and since the rabbinical 1000 year ban on polygyny has passed it is no surprise this subject is being seriously discussed there. Israel also recognizes all marriages from other countries, so any polygynous families married in countries which permit it are accepted into Israel.

Birth rates in the western world are dropping BUT the Muslim world reproduces at incredible rates; they have no problems practicing polygyny even in countries where the law forbids it. Muslims put their faith and holy book into practice. Could the world be a Muslim world in less than two generations? Absolutely.
