How is they can call themselves Mormon when they live their lives against Mormon Doctrine?

They are like Catholics who support abortion.

From the article:Her husband likened the struggle for acceptance with the civil rights movement. "It's like the work Martin Luther King did in relation with African Americans," he said, holding year-old Ava, one of his eight children, in the living room of his three-story home in Centennial Park, a dry, dusty Arizona town run by polygamists near the Utah border.

Talk about opportunism! This criminal, and that's what he is, first takes advantage of Mitt's campaign to jump into the spotlight, then starts the "victim" song and dance by his ridiculous comparison of his sect to blacks.

Unfortunately, this Reuter's piece will most likely be picked up by numberous media outlets, and shine the spotlight on Romney's vulnerability in this matter. The average voter is going to have a hard enough time in divorcing "polygamy" from Romney anyway.

The "Official Declaration" which brought an end to most plural marriages in the LDS church never actually rescinded Doctrine & Covenants 132 (LDS Scripture), which refers to this practice as part of an "everlasting covenant."

So fundamentalist Mormons who practice it simply point to D&C 132.
