Okay, Joe "married" a bunch of women. How many did he had sex with? I don't know. And nobody knows, and I really don't care.

I think it may have been in the Lectures on Faith or perhaps an early Mormon theological thinker whose name is escaping me at the momen...

In the following I link I wrote an article where I provide screenshots of John Dehlin admitting he has not been able to replicate the communal Joy of Mormonism and has not been able to replace it with anything better.
