Denver Snuffer posted an essay entitled "Plural Marriage" on March 22, 2015. It is apparently a transcription of a recent talk he had given and provides his followers with his views on Joseph Smith and plural marriage. Snuffer's basic conclusion is that the Prophet did not practice polygamy. He alleges that the historical evidences that support Joseph's participation should instead be attributed to John C. Bennett's activities in Nauvoo in 1840–1842 or blamed on Brigham Young's behaviors and teachings after the martyrdom. This article provides references to dozens of documents that counter this conclusion and shows plainly that Snuffer is in error.
