Mormon Red Death is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Ok I will ask this question because last summer when I

brought this question up to a brother (who is regular here and is a feminazi canadian commie) I was lambasted. So here goes. Last summer I was the gospel doctrine teacher for my ward and since we were doing the D&C one of the lessons was on eternal marriage Sections 131 134 etc... I did the lesson fine except something really bugged me. Why didn't the lesson even mention polygamy?

Since, the class was a study of the D&C with a church history mixed in wouldn't this be the opportune time to at least talk about it? Especially since those sections are primarily about polygamy. Is it because for missionary purposes the church tries to avoid any tie to polygamy? So in all what do you think?

Personally, I don't have any problems with our history. I try to see the early and present day leaders as humans trying to do the best they can. Did they make mistakes? Sure and that is what we can learn from them.

Well anyway I would love to hear what people think.
