Not mad just think you should stop playing both sides.
Polygamy is an excuse for Abuse of women
What is the religious significance of old men marrying young
girls?
At the age of 57 Orson Pratt was fixing to marry a 16 year
old, who became his 10th wife on 28 December 1868.
Plural marriage in early Utah, included "the grossest of incest�the
intermarriage of near relations." Cook Face to Face with Mormonism p
10-11
BLESSINGS OF POLYGAMY
Cannon wrote Of his wife, "she considered
herself in disgrace every day that she lived with me in polygamy, and she
would as soon be a prostitute as a plural wife." Abraham H. Cannon
Diaries, 12:215-16, 8 July 1890
Heber J Grant was convicted in 1899 this is the historical fact. In
addition he fled the US to avoid another conviction in 1903
A number of general Authorities were convicted of UNLAWFUL COHABITATION
AFTER the manifesto.
It was unlawful to have more than one wife
so "UNLAWFUL COHABITATION"
as they say today "living together" the biblical
term is ADULTERY & FORNICATION
President Joseph F Smith had 5
wives that bore him ELEVEN children after 1890! (Testimony Reed
Smoot)
Brigham H Roberts First Council of Seventy, Served four months in prison
for UNLAWFUL COHABITATION, 1889
SL Trib article 2001
http://www.polygamyinfo.com/plygmedia%2001%20111trib.htmIt
turned out that proving polygamous marriage back then
was almost
impossible. Rather than enforce the Morrill Act, which made
bigamy
punishable by a $500 fine and up to 5 years in prison, federal
prosecutors
used a Utah law banning "lewd and lascivious cohabitation." This statute
carried a sentence of 6 months and was the punishment handed out to most
pioneer polygamists. Apostle Lorenzo Snow served 11 months. Rudger Clawson,
later an
apostle, was sentenced to 4 years for multiple offenses.
These 2 church leaders turned down a FULL pardon. They must have enjoyed
the sin too much.
http://www.polygamyinfo.com/Harrision-proclaimation.htmNow,
therefore, I Benjamin Harrison, President of the United States, by virtue of
the powers vested, do hereby declare and grant a full amnesty and pardon to
all persons liable to the penalties of said act by reason of unlawful
cohabitation under the color of polygamous or plural marriage who have since
November 1, 1890,
abstained from such unlawful cohabitation, but upon the
express condition that they shall in the future faithfully obey the laws of
the United States herein before named, and not otherwise. Those who shall fail
to avail themselves of the clemency hereby offered will be vigorously
prosecuted.

sound like you were planning to get yourself some extra women,
like that red-headed Dude who got sent to the Point of the Mountain
(State Pen) awhile back, and are therefore defending the principle of plural
marriage. ????

The Manifesto is complete, having the revelation to rescind

It is too long to quote, so please just look it up.
