The Bible & Polygamy

This book is a transcript of a historical debate on the topic of polygamy, which took place in Washington D.C. in 1870. The debate was between Professor Orson Pratt, a leader in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Reverend Doctor J.P. Newman, a prominent Baptist preacher. The two men discussed the biblical basis for polygamy and debated its morality and social impact. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the intersection of religion and politics in the United States.
