Those who were wrong about celibacy are also wrong about monogamy because the God has always allowed Polygamy.
Where does GOD say in the Bible that you can only have one wife ?
Gods words and Pauls' personal opinions are not equal.
Deut. 21:15 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated:
Deut. 21:16 Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the firstborn:
Deut. 21:17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a DOUBLE portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.

using the old Testiment is tough at superb. a lot of it became directed in particular for the Jewish u . s . on the time (as an occasion the small print for courtroom situations). jointly as the hot Testiment never specifies numbers of husbands/better halves, we live in a one-on-one society so a methods as marriage is going. If we are have been a rustic of assorted spouses, i do no longer think there'd be something incorrect with it.

The only sincerely practical solution is to castrate all males younger than 30. In view of what you posit in your question, that's clearly what God intended to happen before the Rapture could take place
