This is so bizarre. I grew up in the RLDS, now called the Community of Christ, or something like that.

THEY EXCOMMUNICATED ME because once I moved out of my parents, married then divorced my husband, who’s father was some sort of priest, I told them to buzz off. I think I have the papers somewhere.

But they were the liberal branch that stayed in Independence, MO after the Mormons went to Utah. And I can tell you that while it was a bit goofy at times, it was pretty innocuous. It was nothing compared to what’s being posted here about the Mormons.

And those socalled “fundamentalist” Mormons really creep me out. They’re all on welfare and I think the Mormon church should use some of its Vaticanesque fortune to help clean up the mess of polygamy.

Still. I think Romney is the best candidate so far period. I really don’t think Hilary or Barak can beat him.

The Mormonism bothers me. But, there it is.

They creep the rest of us out too.

There is not such a thing as a "fundamentalist Mormon". If they were ever a member of the LDS Church, they were excommunicated (had their membership canceled).

The Church has no say in what they do, and no power over them. The State prosecutes them when they can get evidence,(not the easiest thing to do.)
