I know the name of the Prophet Joseph Smith for good.

And which good was that? Polygamy or Polyandry?

Did you ever get around to reading the Primer and finding out what the FLDS and similar Fundamentalist Mormon sects are all about?

I think you miss the point. When Smith was alive, polygamy was an accepted practice of the church. Mormons believed God ordained it. They also believe God changed that ordination and said to stop doing it. But it didn’t mean the previous polygamists were wrong. It’s kinda the whole point of being a Latter Day Saint. God can change things.

Hi, Virgie. I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ, who suffered and died for me. Me, of all people. Me, a Mormon.

Here is the official word from my Church on the FLDS matter:

Of course you can say it’s all lies. It’s a free country.
