Gee, I don't remember trying to make that point. Nor do I think that one has to show what you've written to argue that Joseph could have committed adultery.

But the case of Apostle Albert Carrington is interesting. He committed adultery for over a decade as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve and The First Presidency.

and Brigham Young in 1876 said that it is "a curiosity to him that men could commit adultery and still retain the spirit of the Lord as he had witnessed on one occasion."

and the Lord permitted the Church to own a brothel for decades.

and the Lord permitted a General Primary President to be a practicing Lesbian.

and...

The Church Patriarch was gay leading to its abolition.

Carrington was excommunicated. I don't know who the General Primary President was that was a lesbian, but did they escape disciplinary action?

How do you respond to the Church owning a brothel?

I don't believe it's in online materials, but it may be. It's in certain Church resource journals from the Patriarch before Eldridge Smith.

Yes, he was. But it was only after years of repeated adultery. It wasn't just a one time oops for Carrington.
