Sometime in November there will be a Sunday School lesson that includes Doctrine and Covenants Section 132. Are we following the Savior if we believe and practice the teachings of Section 132?

The perception of D&C 132 as reality and absolute truth has flipped. This is because of materials available to research, more independent people doing the research, and people sharing what they find.

In another informative episode of 132 Problems (how does anyone still think LDS polygamy was inspired?), Michelle Stone shared observations about polygamy from three reliable sources outside the early Utah church. They each provide entertaining and varied accounts of the less-than-civilized lifestyle.

Now primary children (without parental consent) may learn about Joseph's polygamy (without documentation). Are we subtly teaching boys that cheating on your wife is occasionally okay?  Are we grooming girls to consider accepting a future proposal to be plural wives?

The majority of the women who enter the temple believe god endorses everything that happens there. Shouldn’t they be informed that, according to their beliefs, they are signing up for eternal polygamy?

Both sexes shared the priesthood which provided a tailor-made opportunity for sexual activity to be part of their pagan faith. God removed the opportunity by confining the role of priests to men.

It’s time to clarify to members, other polygamist sects, and the world that a mistake was made. This mistake caused harm. But we can repent and no longer contribute to the damage.

Michelle Stone presents some compelling research to conclude that Joseph was not a polygamist

Here are a few of my favorite polygamy-related sites that rely on scripture, research, and logic. They lead me to, not away from God.

The Joseph Smith Papers are providing some interesting, polygamy-related findings

Ryan Fisher postulates that the missing piece of the theological puzzle is that the promised land must be a specific location, with clear rules for the occupants

Believing that God is an eternal polygamist derails faith—it interferes with a correct understanding of God’s character, perfections, and attributes

I believe Section 132 and its polygamy doctrine is built on a house of confusion
