Pernyataan di atas tidak berdasar.
Secara logika, 2 pria dengan gairah seksual yang sama
jika  yang satu dipaksa monogami, dia bisa berzina
ketika istrinya seminggu setiap bulan berhalangan atau
40 hari selama melahirkan.

Sementara yang poligami, jika dia bosan dengan 1
istri, maka ada istri yang lain sebagai alternatif.

Sebagai contoh, Aa Gym jatuh hati dengan teh Rini,
jika dilarang poligami, jika tidak kuat imannya
(misalnya bukan orang seperti Aa) bisa saja dia
akhirnya selingkuh. Tapi kalau menikah kan tidak zina.

Ada pun faktanya, di negara yang memaksakan
penduduknya monogami seperti di AS, justru perzinahan
dan pelacuran merajalela. Sementara di negara2 Islam
(terutama yang menerapkan syariah Islam) perzinahan
jarang terjadi, bahkan tempat pelacuran dilarang.

Data dari AS di bawah menunjukkan bahwa 1 dari 3
wanita diperkosa sebelum berumur 18 tahun. Jika
perkosaan begitu tinggi, apalagi perzinahan. Ini
adalah fakta. Bukan studi main2.

50-60% orang Amerika mengaku berzinah (USA Today).
Yang tidak mengaku mungkin lebih banyak lagi.

655 juta video porno disewa di AS (belum yang beli).
45 juta warga AS mengidap penyakit kelamin.

Itulah bukti bahwa monogami yang dipaksakan akhirnya
menimbulkan perzinahan dan pelacuran. Contohnya jika
Yahya Zaini menikahi Maria Eva, bisa jadi dia tidak
jadi berzina. Itulah akibat monogami yang dipaksakan

Lying - Polls indicate that 91% of people in the U.S.
lie regularly (source: , by James Patterson and Peter
Kim).

Greed - Statistics now show that Americans visit
casinos more often than they attend professional
sporting events (source: Focus on the Family).

Pornography - 665-million pornographic videos were
rented in 1996 (source: USA Today, 9-5-97). The number
of pornography outlets now dwarfs the number of
McDonald's restaurants in the USA.

Adultery - A USA Today report says that up to 50-60%
of Americans admit to committing adultery. We have the
highest divorce rate in the world (source: Save
America).

Fornication - 45 million Americans are infected with
the virus that causes genital herpes (source: American
Social Health Association).

Rape - one rape every 46 seconds in America and one
out of three girls are sexually molested before the
age of 18 (source: National Center for Victims of
Crime).

Murder - As terrible as the loss of life was at the
World Trade Center, keep in mind that 200-thousand
people were murdered during the last decade in the
U.S. (source: Council on Crime in America).

2. Al Baqarah 
8. Di antara manusia ada yang mengatakan: "Kami
beriman kepada Allah dan Hari kemudian[22]," pada hal
mereka itu sesungguhnya bukan orang-orang yang
beriman.  
9. Mereka hendak menipu Allah dan orang-orang yang
beriman, padahal mereka hanya menipu dirinya sendiri
sedang mereka tidak sadar. 

> Needless to say, saya tidak mengatakan para Kyai dan
Aa Gym tukang berzinah.....

Itulah buktinya. Jarang ulama yang poligami berzinah.
Banyak teman saya yang monogami, kenyataannya suka
berzinah.
