No one really knows the detail on some of those marriages and since then it been “he said” vs “he said” and only the Lord knows.
But I do know there are marriage for “time & eternity” and marriages for “time”, and marriage for “eternity”.
So unless there are offical document and not just accusations like the McCain/NYT affair it has no legs with me!
That's not the half of it!
According to the Mormon scholar Todd Compton, in this LIST of Joseph's 33 plural wives:
Joseph also repeatedly lied about his sexual practices. And the last time I checked, the LORD had some rather harsh things to say about bearing false witness.
Your original comment didn't concern greyfoxx39; it spoke to why "most of those who leave the Church," about whom you made accusations concerning why they left. And you weren't speaking in "general terms," you listed specific reasons as to why "most left." And that accusation was made without support except for them being of your opinions, ONLY, which you earlier denied being the case.
Then best you don't speculate about "sins".
As I said I was speaking in gerneral and there is enough situations like that and many have said why they left.
So it is nothing I have not seen before sitll does not clarify under which ordinance it was.
What do you have in your Skeleton Closet Nic?:)
Jesus also said dust your feet off with those who kick against the Church!

No Jesus never said that...
He didnt mention any church
Jesus was talking about those of us who preach His Gospel
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words: when ye depart out of that house or city shake off the dust from your feet” Matthew 10:14
“and as many as may not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them” Mark 6:11
“and whomsoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them” Luke 9:5
The multiple marriages of Joseph Smith, from what I’ve seen, are documented and recorded. That means, it’s not “’he said she said’”. It’s a fact that while Joseph Smith was married to multiple wives, multiple times over he committed adultery by “marrying” women who were still married to other men who were alive.
I don't recall if it was Zakeet who originally posted that list....but I had never seen it before. But Zakeet may likely know more information concerning your questions.
But.......I guess, as someone noted earlier....."if you're at the top of the food chain....." you can do whatever you want and change the prophecies or whatever.
That is a typical attempt at deflecting from the sins of Joseph Smith.
“nasty Postum!” ????
That sounds sinful...
Think I’ll have a nice hot cup of tea and try to forget I read about such nasty stuff...
Then best you don’t speculate about “sins”.
I never said anything about sinn about you or anyone here so stop with the insituations, and don’t try to include yourself in a general obsevation, because I speak from what other have choosen to share.
Plural was an ordinance that was sanctioning in the scriptures you can not erase that, and from the pattern in the scripture it happens with each new dispensation.

I’d offer some of my special banana pudding I just made, but you’re too far away. LOL Getting interesting though. OH Resty is on a roll tonight. She’ll get reinforcements soon enough. Spinning adultery is a nasty game though ...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I was at Church tonight...
I wonder if it’s a sin to come out of Church and straight into a rumble ???
LOL
One Instant Banana Pudding mix, two cups of Vanilla Yogurt, two bananas cut up thick, eight crumbled shortbread cookies. Mix the yogurt and pudding then fold in the banana chunks and crumbled cookies. Top with two crumbled shortbread cookies and press the cookie pieces down into the pudding. Chill for one hour and grab a spoon ... forget a bowl, it won't last that long.
Oooooooooooooooooooo
sounds tasty
