It's like re-writing history.
I felt the same way, the first time I saw that my ggggggggrandparents' marriage was "sealed" - incredibly angry and ready to call them unspeakable names. But I realized that I would have to believe that what they did made even a little bit of sense. They were married prior to the birth of Joseph Smith, for heaven's sake! If they even know about it, I'm sure they're laughing about it.
