When did polygamy become illegal in New York State?

Answer 1

Polygamy never worked in any society. Even in old Biblical times, if you read every story that involved polygamy you will see that every instance of polygamy ALWAYS ended in disaster. Polygamy began with the reprobate line of Cain. It never did work and always brought much heartache and chaos to those who practice it, especially the children involved. It may work for men who only want sex toys but usually even the men end up regretting it.. God allowed polygamy in the OT but He never condoned it. We see in the order of God's creation that God gave man only one woman. Jesus points back to the order creation as God's original intent. In the NT Jesus condemned the practice and so did all of the apostles.
