Whitney, Jeremy, and Michelle’s next panel discussion, on Joseph’s “carefully worded denials.” What exactly did Joseph Smith say about polygamy and the accusations against him? Does calling them “carefully worded denials” or “dodging” sufficiently explain Joseph’s continual and consistent statements opposing polygamy? Does the explanation of the apologists stand up to scrutiny?
