Talk:John Taylor (Mormon)

message: Some mention needs to be made about the controversy surrounding a revelation some say he recieved in 1886 providing for the continued practice of polygamy, by the Woolleys, albeit outside the church and jurisdiction of the Quorum of The Twelve, and the meeting some believe took place the day after he received it.  Perhaps a dozen Latter day Saint groups trace their origins to their belief in that event.
Amongst the biographies of Taylor are -
The life of John Taylor,: Third president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
John Taylor: Mormon Philosopher, Prophet of God
The Last Pioneer: John Taylor, a Mormon Prophet
Witness to the Martyrdom: John Taylor's Personal Account of the Last Days of the Prophet Joseph Smith

message: The John Taylor article presently states that hundreds of men and women were arrested for practicing polygamy in Utah.  It would be good to have some documentation on this number.  Also, I have never seen a reference to any woman's being arrested during that era.  Did women also get arrested?  If so, we need firm references to that fact.  Thanks in advance to anybody who has that data and can furnish it here. Raymondwinn (talk) 16:16, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Am i wrong to believe that John Taylor explicitly stated that Black Africans survived the Great Flood to be representatives of satan's horde, and that this was one of the guiding motives behind barring blacks from the priesthood until 1978? I believe i heard this on the PBS documentary.  does anyone have additional information on this? if this is true, shouldn't it be listed on the page under a new title?

message: I see this page was once in 2007 moved to not say "Mormon", and was moved back. Beyond the points that were made in that conversation, it is worth noting that the LDS church has since begun to discourage such use of the word "Mormon", and in light of that, it seems appropriate to move this article to not have "Mormon" in the title. -Ramzuiv (talk) 21:18, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
