I only got to skim the surface of the history that the museum offers. A real archival effort is in motion there. I highly recommend it.

Mormon doctrine defends their earlier practice of polygamy as God-mandated, still allows for multiple wives in the hereafter, suggests that God Himself may be a polygamist, and holds that God may someday reinstate polygamy. The book It’s Not About the Sex My A** by Joanne Hanks does a good job explaining much of that. Or read the Doctrine and Covenants (which the Mormons regard as scripture), Section 132, where God out-and-out states that taking multiple wives is a COMMANDMENT.
