I don't think too much of the King Follet Sermon. :-(

I can deal with most of the Joseph Smith criticism: polygamy and drinking and peeping stones and masonic ideas and everything,but this one really bothers me for some reason.
That's understandable. You should definitely note that the King Follet Discourse is likely not 100% accurate. It was put together by various written records. Take refuge in that fact.. but don't shy away from it. I think confronting it is the best course of action. (IMHO)

If you want to discuss it deeper.. feel free to PM me. I'm a new convert and can relate having doctrinal issues.
