This stems from a story passed down from a few people who, it is said, heard from Emma Smith (Joseph's first wife) that she caught Joseph with Fanny Alger (second wife) in a barn. At that point, Joseph had been keeping his practice of plural marriage a secret from most, including Emma. When she confronted him, he told her what he told many of his wives to come when proposing to them:
...That when asked to practice polygamy, Joseph refused, and according to some accounts, "would rather die," than do so. After not teaching and practicing for a time, he claimed that he was threatened with destruction by an angel with a flaming sword unless he live the "higher law" of celestial plural marriage.

Oh, this video is light hearted compared to some others. ddefective Needs to make more.....My favorite moment is the cry of angst as he recounts the Angel to Emma....
HAHAHA ok so I'm a Mormon and I thought this was hilarious. I honestly did. I mean yes it's an anti-Mormon video or whatever but that was funny I must admit. Still smiling and laughin to myself right now. But hey, if you can't laugh at yourself and have fun, life would be pretty boring.
Yeah well at least you got the story "KIND OF" right. And YES they were not comfortable with the idea but they lived it anyways because it came by commandment.
