#ChurchToo has been happening in the evangelical world for a few months. I can absolutely see similar stories happening in Mormonism.
"It seems to me that these women were the head (κεφάλαιον) of the church which was at Philippi." ~ John Chrysostom, Homilies on Philippians 13

When abuse happens and the church does not discipline appropriately, victims are re-victimized. It's another example of spiritual abuse. A blog posted a somewhat-related story today:
https://sistersquorum.com/2018/02/10/518/
"This man has never expressed remorse to us. Sometimes abusers do, but keep abusing. This man still tries to harm us. Our abuser certainly has not shown a consistent effort in changing behavior, quite the contrary. I do not know how the bishop sees him, but I do know that feelings cannot replace facts. I know this man has not fully repented, I absolutely know he has not sought restitution with us.
The harm he has done and does is perpetuated with every memory and reminder of him. When he continues with the appearance of holding the priesthood in the church, the harm is worsened, and we are victimized again.
Where is the “Amen” to his priesthood?"

So are we going to trace it all the way back to Smith? We absolutely should.

"Any over-ritualized religion since the dawn of time can make its priests say yes, we know, it is rotten, and hard luck, but just do as we say, keep at the ritual, stick it out, give us your money and you'll end up with the angels in heaven for evermore."
