The Mormons have been forced to come clean about their bogus holy leader...
Mormon leaders have admitted for the first time that the church's founder, Joseph Smith, took multiple wives, some of whom were in their early teens or married to other men.
The Salt Lake Tribune reports that the essay disclosing Smith's polygamy was posted on the official website of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints late last months. The essay was posted alongside an earlier offering detailing the history polygamy in Utah, where most Mormons live.
The work is part of a series of essays posted by the Mormon church about several topics that have made the faith a subject of controversy, including a ban on blacks in the priesthood that was not lifted until 1978.
The essay does not give a specific number of wives Smith had, but researcher Todd Compton told the Tribune that he believed the number to be at least 33, with 10 of those women under the age of 20. One of the women, Helen Mar Kimball, the daughter of two of Smith's close friends, was 14 at the time of their marriage.
