:::: But why aren't you writing about polygamy in ''[[FDR]]'''s own entry? That is far more recent and significant than any polygamy by the LDS Church.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 18:20, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

:::::Polygamy is official marriage. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young had 40-50 official wives each, and other top officials had dozens. The issue came to a head in 1904-5 in the US Senate, with the conservative Protestants leading the battle that forced the Mormons to condemn polygamy.
