Is this the same cult where men can have 40 wives or something? Mormonism makes me sad  |

I knew you would bring this up. Mormons are not Protestant or Christian. |

Nobody mentioned Protestants or Christians here but you Alfie. There are Protestants who believe that polygamy is ok, but their not being mentioned here. www.religioustolerance.org/polychr.htm |

Now this is cultish, when the husbands demand there wives to be subordanant to them and to be able to have as many wives as they want. And on top of that, have sex with their children and others children. YUK, they should throw the adults in Jail or a mental hospital.
I dont care what color or religion or christian/nonchrisian these folks are, but they are DEAD WRONG!

This group of people are not Mormons. They call themselves the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They have all been ex-communicated from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Most of them in fact have never been members of the original LDS Church. Some of their ancestors were members, but even the currect leader's father was ex-communicated in the 1940's.
Another note members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are Christian and do not consider themselves Protestant. We believe that we are a restoration of Christ's Church from ancient times. We are not a breakaway sect from another Church.

From what I understand, the LDS stopped polygamy a long time ago. This is a Mormon Protestant sect.

Quite right. Mormon Protestant sect describes it well.
I get annoyed when, in the press, they make it seem like the FLDS are LDS. We don't live segretated from the community, and we don't all dress alike either. There are very few similarities between FLDS and LDS.
