Talk:William Law (Mormonism)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm having a hard time finding a good reference for the actual day Law died. I can only find the year. If someone could find it, it would be appreciated. Also, I can't find much information about his time as president of the reformed church or how he was selected and such. Epachamo 00:02, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I reverted the edits stating that William Law was commiting adultery. Perhaps the person who edited it was thinking of John C. Bennett. William Law believed polygamy WAS adultery, which was his main beef with Joseph Smith. I also took out the edit saying it was common practice for city councils to order the destruction of printing presses. I find that really hard to believe, especially in light of the fact that the mormons were so furious when there own printing press was destroyed in Missouri. If it was common practice and ok, why did they cry that it was illegal and wrong(which it was)? How many printing presses were destroyed on the american frontier to make it become a "common practice." Please, before adding the information back in find a source.
