Then why do the LDS leaders and LDS Scripture that Elsie posted say differently?

Polygamy is something that is practiced at some times and not at others, n general the large portion of the people are never asked to practice it, but it's biblical, and can be done without salaciousness. The book of Mormon speaks out against polygamy when it was used as a way to punish wives and was being practiced very wickedly. God commanded Joseph to institute it for the protection of his kingdom, then once it was illegal and had been tried in the highest court, the church stopped the practice to be in compliance with the laws of the land, which is part of the articles of faith.

You might just as easily ask how the Eternal law of moses was fulfilled by Jesus, if it was not then all "Christians" today would have to live the law of Moses (BY BY ham, and cheeseburgers, etc...)

You are a fool for not knowing what the Bible says about this.

If this were not so sad a revelation of the blindness in the poster's soul, it would be laughable! ... "The book of Mormon speaks out against polygamy when it was used as a way to punish wives and was being practiced very wickedly. God commanded Joseph to institute it ..." The lengths some mormonism apologists (not fLDS, LDS Apologists) will go to defend their peepstone lying adulterous false prophet's instituted polyPIGgamy is astonishing.
