What about him marrying Orson Hyde's wife after he sent him on a mission? I don't how to explain it, Tex. Maybe someday it will all make sense to me. If that day comes then I will say, "Prophet Smith, I am sorry that with all the information I had on earth I just thought you were using your authority to take advantage of women. But now I know that 'marrying' other men's wives, your household helper and teenage girls was all a part God's beautiful plan to restore the gospel in the Latter-days." |

I really don't know what to think about it other than he was a horny dude who some how was able to repent for this sin.

Newell & Avery's book and Compton's book go into the context.

This seems so simple but if true I'm not sure what % of the church could live with this.

I also don't know what to think about that MP in France ripping those missionaries for spanking the monkey, in light of what JS apparently did. I would think some horny 19 year old kid, going without women for two years should be cut some slack.

I have prayed asking for peace of mind concerning these things and am still left wanting. I have not left the church but it troubles me greatly. |

Not saying I believe that, but it seems to me to be an acceptable answer if I were to completely condemn polygamy. |
