"God only condemed one. What is your point?"

I think you need to take a closer look at what God the Father said about marriage in Genesis and what Jesus God the Son said about marriage in Matthew. They (Jesus and the Father) are both God and they condemned polygamy!

But if you follow what Mormon leaders have said, then you believe that they are/will become gods. This is obviously false because they contradict Jesus and the Father!

You also need to take a look at what the early Mormons said about marriage and why would they call "fornication and polygamy" a crime?...

"MARRIAGE. v. 4 "Inasmuch as this church of Christ has been reproached with and the crime of fornication, and polygamy; we declare that we believe that one man should have one wife; and one woman, but one husband, except in the case of death, when either is at liberty to marry again." 1835 Doctrine and Covenants, C1, p. 251 (1835)

Take a look at what Brigham Young said about "plurality of wives" and being "damned" just 20 years later, which also contradicts what God said about marriage!

"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned." Journal of Discourses, vol. 3, p. 266 (1855)

The facts speak for themselves and I would check this stuff out if I were you so I wouldn't be misinformed.
