Well
http://eyring.hplx.net/Eyring/faq/evolution/FP1909.html would be a decent start. That was an official first presidency statement, similar to the proclamation on the family. It turned out to be completely wrong. If they had done some research, they should have recognized it as being completely wrong even then. There was also the one confirmed even on CB of one of the prophets declaring that we would never go to the moon because god wouldn't allow it. I can't find a link at the moment. Most of what BRM ever said was wrong too, for example. They were also very, very wrong about blacks, another topic which was discussed quite thoroughly on CB recently. Their stance on homosexuality has changed quite a bit as well, and I think they're still on the wrong side of that issue.
I could go on, but that isn't my point. If you don't want to accept "often," at least accept "often enough for a rational person to wonder."
