Guess so, as krishna himself is a great play boy, as depicted in epics, read that he had 10,001 whores (wives? 'gopastree' can better be translated whore than wife)

i guess so. if u worship a polygamist and adore books (kamasutra) depicting group sex and orgy, definitely you are adhering on the same principles. Krishna is a playboy, atleast in stories, and i should say people who worship Krishna are polygamists deep in their mind (not absolute though). F* all religions, it doesnt give man wisdom. Religions always lead to war, let us dream of better tomorrows with no religious ideology. I wish if i where US Pres next somewhere in decade (for sure i know we will rule the whole universe then), first decision i would take is to prohibit all religions on earth.

well anyone can have his or her own interpretations regarding anything in this world .. all the people in this world have their right to choose their god and follow their religion .... Krishna was worshiped in the region known as Uttar Pradesh and Bihar in modern india ... uttar pradesh now is bigger than many countries of the world ... so its a big place Krishna was not polygamist but u can say a flirt ... he liked being aroung women ... and this was because of his respect and love for women folk as an outcome of his love for his mom .. its said no where that he had any sexual relations with anyone .. married yes but when it comes to sexual relations no one says any thing ... the followers sees stuff their own way ... so they may or maynot be polygamists ...

No Krishna devotee's are most certainly not polygamists. The whole structure of Vedic culture is designed to reduce sexual interactions for the procreation of nice children only, otherwise sex-life is illicit. Only a low class women would agree to the principle of illicit sexual relations.
As for your comments regarding Sri Krishna, the story you refer to is difficult to understand from the material point of view, Sri Krishna rescued 16,108 young girls from the palace of a very demoniac personality, because Krishna is God, after liberating them from the tyrant,he expanded himself into 16,108 individual forms, married each one and built an opulent palace for each.
Also by the influence of yogamaya, each Queen thought that they had been individually chosen, these pastimes are designed to attract us out of this temporary material world and re-attach us to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krishna.

Hindu are not polygamists. All marriage is monogamous. The stories about gods are not there to mimic everything a god supposedly did.
To the idiot above me I think you have confused polygamist with polytheist, big difference.

The worshippers of hindu god krishna in today's world are not ploygamists. INDIA was a land of kamasutra, but the modern indians are not . but foreigners who come from abroad still think that india is still the land of kamasutra, when they land up here, they go to cheats like satya sai baba, osho rajneesh where they have sex or they get cheated. they do not find the land as they have expected it to be.

You are ignorant and ill-informed. You should try to educate yourself rather than blaspheming people's beliefs.
It is people like you who cause the ridiculous and disgusting state of the world where people kill others in the name of religion.
You are such an idiot, I won't even try to answer your stupid question. Pull your head out of your a**!

Hindus worship the characters written in epics/stories. So it is only a story.
