If it was just a coincidence that polygamy and child abuse were showing up in the same places, I'd agree with you. But I argue (see comment below) that there's a causal link. If you took a completely atheist community and convinced them that "two wives for each man, one husband for each woman" ought to be the norm, you would see similar problems emerging.
