Polygamy Revelation It is recorded in William Clayton's diary Joe jr., Hyrum,& William Clayton were sitting together. They were discussing polygamy. Hyrum suggested that if Joseph would write(not receive) a revelation where God gives instructions for Joe jr. to have other wives he would take it to Emma. Joe jr. doubted that Emma would believe it. However William Clayton wrote it down and Hyrum took it to Emma. Emma did not believe it! From this point on polygamy is nothing more than a massive con. It leads one to wonder how many more so called revelations were the figment of of imagination from an exceptionally creative mind. The man was a scam artist and compared to him Ponzi was a rank amateur.
Holy cow. Yeah, I'm starting to see it. It just seems like "revelations" that occur when something needs to be legitimized or supported, and also just for the hell of it, in some cases. This is wild.
