I think there are really three sides to this issue though.<br />1. Did JS really practice it because he was commanded to by God?<br />2. Was the historical record doctored to make it look like he did even though he didn't, meaning it was never commanded by God?<br />3. Or, did he practice it after being deceived into believing it was a commandment from God?<br /><br />Either one of these scenarios is plausible although I personally believe the latter because I believe the Book of Mormon clearly and unequivocally condemns the practice and I believe JS practiced it.<br />But whether he did or didn't I am convinced it is NOT a commandment from God and it will play no part in the eternities. It is a practice conceived of by lecherous men who want to justify their lust and sell it to their victims.<br />Link to my blog on what the BOM clearly teaches about polygamy: https://gregstocks.wordpress.com/2014/09/07/polygamy-vs-the-book-of-mormon/<br />1https://www.blogger.com/profile/01583545885401871178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-199633972689777295.post-3611522554363784872015-11-27T07:43:20.592-08:002015-11-27T07:43:20.592-08:00Hi Bare Record,

It is ridiculous that they used models for those pictures, as well. As for the document, I have come to different conclusions and I believe this is as biased as the museum elements you complain about. The real issue with Joseph's polygamy--the only one that matters--is this: Are you (not you, the author, but anyone who reads this) willing to accept anything that God commands, or will you set up stakes for him and assume you know right and wrong better than he does? <br /><br />I find far too many folks these days grasping onto the straw of this document to relieve them of the cognitive dissonance they feel when this issue reveals that they trust God far less than they like to think. That is very unfortunate, because every single person will be tested in this life to find whether they will obey all of God's commands. Maybe Joseph did not practice plural marriage. However, others have in fact been commanded by God to do so. If someone thinks it is an immoral situation, therefore, they are in need of repentance.
