Quote is from Joseph F. Smith, President of the LDS church, in 1904, speaking against a proposed Constitutional amendment that would ban polygamy.
In a church that is ever-changing and adapting, in 2006, the LDS church would support (and request support from its members) essentially the very same constitutional amendment that Joseph F. Smith opposed.
Rarely do we have such an example of original Mormonism colliding with neo-Mormonism.
