Inasmuch as laws have been enacted by Congress forbidding plural marriages,
which laws have been pronounced constitutional by the court of last resort,
I hereby declare my intention to submit to those laws,
and to use my influence with the members of the Church
over which I preside to have them do likewise.
Wilford Woodruff
President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
September 24th, 1890
You know, if we banned pasting into these threads, they’d be ghost towns.
I still contend that Mormons don’t believe all that wacky stuff. They attest to it but their inability to defend it proves they really don’t truly believe it.
I also believe the inability to put things into your own words makes your beliefs suspect. (cough, cough)
