Should marriage to more than one person be legal?

No I don't believe so. There is no law that forces people to wed in this first place. If you are interested in some kind of open living arrangement then more power to you... shack up with whomever you want. You don't have to be married. There is no way that Western civilization is going to support the concept of multiple spouses.

No i dont think this should be legal and i dont think any man/women would want to share the wife/husband.

Well in our religion Islam we have the right to 4 marriages at a time and logic behind is if we see an widow who is young but her husband is died for any reason and she have kids too than we must propose her to provide another chance to live happy. In second option if we see an very poor family who have girls in their home but not able to take financial burden of an marriage so we must propose her to help this poor family too. Similarly these mirages are based on others need and motto behind it is to help them.

in Muslim culture it is legal to have any number of wives.though i not support the concept.for two to understand each other takes a life time.how can anybody manage on double or triple?its not right and ethical to have such relationships and these relations certainly not be legalized.forgive me if i said something wrong i am not condemning any religion.

nah not cool...would cause a lot of problems and jealousy between them

Of course not, it will be unfair to those who will have to share a spouse with somebody else.
