This is a transcript from a meeting between Mormon church historians and some rather intelligent "disaffected Swedish LDS Saints."
Once you get past the greetings and enter the question and answer phase, it basically transforms into a bloodbath for the official "church historians." Quite embarrassing and breathtaking for the LDS.

(Marrying women still married to righteous Mormon men.) Their response was not a response, but basically saying that "times were different" in the past, and that there are things we cannot understand about certain aspects of church history, yet we (they) know Joseph Smith is true because of the burning of the bosom given by the Mormon Holy Spirit.
Due to its length, I'll just post the link for your perusal.
