Old Testament shows it only creates turmoil

I once worked with a Pakistani Muslim fellow. He told us that yes, under his religion he is allowed to have up to four wives.

“But..” he said, rolling his eyes, “a fellow would have to be pretty much insane to actually try it!”

RE: “a fellow would have to be pretty much insane to actually try it!”

What is the corollary to this when it comes to his prophet, Mohammad?

Can you IMAGINE the quarrels that would be a daily, constant barrage?

The King of Saudi Arabia can have more than one wife, but then he's the King. But the rest of the Saudis say the same thing that the Pakistani said. The problem is that if a man gives one wife a new car he has to give all the other wives the same thing. So he would have to be a very rich person.
