Aren't there about 100 different sects of Mormonism ?

Romney's salt lake LDS sect broke away when FLDS/LDS "Prophet" Brigham Young declared Joe Smith's "retranslation" of the bible to be a fraud. They don't use it to this very day.

"Prophet" Brigham Young declared Joe Smith's "retranslation" of the bible to be a fraud. BY 'declared' LOTS of things.

Here is one:

"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;

and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,

and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.

Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)

OOPS!!!


Inasmuch as laws have been enacted by Congress forbidding plural marriage...
I hereby declare my intention to submit to those laws..."

~ Wilford Woodruff, 4th LDS President

Yep over 100 breakoffs, so the question becomes who is right?
