Arrogance and ignorance.. a terrible combination.
The LDS church's stance appears to be that his marriage to Helen Mar Kimball was one without sexual relations:
"Helen Mar Kimball spoke of her sealing to Joseph as being “for eternity alone,” suggesting that the relationship did not involve sexual relations. After Joseph’s death, Helen remarried and became an articulate defender of him and of plural marriage."
