Brian and Laura Hales - Joseph Smith and Plural Marriage

Brian and Laura Hales at the FairMormon Conference in Kungsbacka, Sweden, 18 June 2016. Very interesting address by Brian Hales​ and Laura Harris Hales. This subject is controversial, no doubt, but it is refreshing to see that all the evidence as we know it - not speculation - support the notion that the prophet Joseph Smith tried to live an honorable life in relation to all men and women. And whether one approves of polygamy or not, it is clear that Joseph only did what he felt he was called to do by the Lord, void of any personal desires or quests. The Hales' are not defending polygami itself, but rather defending its historical details, helping their audience to dispel fact from fiction.
