Most Mormons today consider polygamy a practice relegated to history, quick to point out that polygamy was banned and is now an excommunicable offense.

However, attempts to disavow polygamy are disingenuous as the scripture commanding polygamy as an eternal doctrine (Doctrine & Covenants, Section 132) remains as canonized church doctrine.

Polygamy is still practiced in the sense that a man who remarries after the death of his wife can be sealed to his new wife and expects to live with both women in heaven. Joseph F. Smith, tenth president of the church married Louise Shurtleff in 1898 who died in 1908. In 1908 he married Ethel Reynolds, who died in 1937. In 1938 he married Jessie Evans, who died in 1971. He was sealed "for eternity" to each of those women in an LDS temple. Now, paraphrasing what the Pharisees asked Jesus: Which woman will be Smith's wife in the celestial kingdom? According to Mormon doctrine, ALL THREE will be his wives. Smith confirmed "...my wives will be mine in eternity.”(Doctrines of Salvation, 2:67.)

Isn't that polygamy?

(Of course, Jesus answered that there was NO marriage in heaven, but he didn't know Mormon doctrine, obviously.)
