A Times and Seasons blogger examines why polygamy continues to cause problems for the Church despite leadership's apparent desire for the issue to fade. The post argues that standard Church statements — that the practice was "just for a time" with monogamy as the norm — raise tricky questions that official explanations don't resolve.

The blogger notes that men's ability to be sealed to another wife after a first wife's death brings up ongoing concerns about the afterlife for many members. Different attempts to make the issue disappear haven't worked, the post argues, because the problem is more than public perception — it's a continual concern within the membership itself.
