-==Question: Was Wilford Woodruff actually inspired to end polygamy?==
-===Introduction to Question===
-Some wonder whether or not Wilford Woodruff was actually inspired to end polygamy.
-Woodruff [https://wilfordwoodruffpapers.org/documents/7ef08b17-80eb-431b-ad57-4d09b0497b7f/page/ea64cd01-57b5-4e19-b4d0-84b4e0e8ef41 wrote in his journal on September 25, 1890] that “I have arived at a point in the History of my life  as the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints whare I am under the necessity of acting for the Temporal Salvation of the Church. The United State Governmet has taken a stand & passed Laws to  destroy the Latter day Saints upon the subject of poligamy or Patriarchal order of Marriage. And after Praying to the Lord '''& feeling inspired by his spirit''' I have issued the following Proclamation which is sustaind by My Councillors and the 12 Apostles.”
-Thus, anyone denying that Woodruff had a revelation must either not believe in God, not believe in the Latter-day Saint God, or just believe that Woodruff was lying in the case of fundamentalists.
