Right, because having sex behind your wife's back is okey-dokey when God tells you do to it.
You're denying reality: Joseph Smith had sex with other women without his wife's knowledge. That is the issue at hand, and your lame denials ring rather hollow. It's sad that you are so quick to discard reason and morality to defend your prophet's sex life.
The church will always survive as long as there are useful idiots around to justify any action.

BC: What seems to be the problem, Sister Arbuckle? SA: Oh, Bishop Space, I am so ashamed of myself! I was tempted and had sex with a ward member. BC: Which ward member? SA [bursting into tears]: Brother Loblaw!

What do you understand of the testimonies in the Temple Lot case?

Links to this affair have been posted here so often, but here we are again. In a property dispute with the Reorganized Latter-day Saints in the 1890s, the Utah LDS church filed numerous affidavits from faithful Mormon women swearing that they had sexual relations with Joseph Smith. See for instance:
Why would those women lie on oath? Why would the church have wanted them to lie?
Let's hear from bcspace.
Hello bcspace!!! ================
Zadok: I did not have a faith crisis. I discovered that the Church was having a truth crisis. Maksutov: That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

It's just a man thing.

Hey, it's NOT just "a man thing" --
If the man were super hot, compassionate but strong, a good provider and defender but also gentle and loving -- and had a hairy chest...... ...... Oh, sorry, forgot where i was for a moment. Never mind.

Long-term trolls are fascinating. I would think you'd get tired of trolling after a few weeks, but he's still going.
