Secular Polygamy was rejected under the gun The Salt Lake Tribune, USA, Mar. 14, 2004

That’s because it was once at the heart of Mormon identity — defended from the pulpit, in the courtroom and in Congress. Latter-day Saint leaders forsook the practice only after draconian anti-polygamy measures by the U.S. government left them believing their very survival was at risk.
