Just Wondering

I don't know if we already talked about this in class but I was just wondering about how was polygamy part of the Mormon religion? What's the point of putting polygamy as part of the church doctrine?

The above link is a good and seemingly even handed approach to the history of polygamy in the Mormon church. Please remember, Polygamy was outlawed by the church and federal government around 1890.
