The MANY(Male & Female) have been pondering the answers to this Mystery for the Ages unto the Ages, Hence, the writing, production and selling of many Books on Marriage, ;D, ;D, ;D.
All Joking aside, Gina's got a pretty good list, it seems logical. When Mr. Spock asked His Father in reply as to why He married Spock's Mother, He responded By saying: " At the time, it seemed like the logical thing to do." quoted from an episode of the Original Star Trek Series.

We know from the scriptures that God is not the author of confusion, and that he wants things done decently and in order. Why would that not apply to marriage also?
May God bless all the little children, from all the different scenarios that are possible.

Lol. I jest.
That's what I get for writing stuff at the crack of dawn when I'm not awake. I will edit my original post.

Very true.
Now I'm thinking of what JFK put forth. A helper meet, not helper meets Why did God appear (I say, "appear") to go from blessing plural marriage (in the case of Rebekkah and Leah, etc.) to saying only one wife for every man? Captain Obvious says, because poorer men wouldn't stand a chance against those men who could afford to have more than one wife.
Well, anyway, these are just things I've wondered about from time to time and it seemed like a good topic for discussion.
I'm enjoying everyone's responses. Even Dennis's and Alex's. :-)
