Again, I have no problem with the article.

The article does not confuse LDS vs FLDS.
Colofornian’s summary does.

And the article says exactly the opposite of what Colofornian says it does.

The LDS doesn’t spin Jeffs as a continuation of their prophets, it argues against it.

“It is naive to suppose that Jeffs’ world is simply a projection of 19th-century Mormonism into the present.”

and the concluding sentence,

“Jeffs tells us far less about both modern and historical Mormonism than many observers assume.”

Anyone who says the LDS thinks Warren Jeffs is a continuation of their prophets is simply lying about the LDS. Why conflate the two groups, pretending one sanctions the other, when the orgs are strongly against each other? There are so many valid criticisms of Mormon beliefs, there is no need to stoop to this behavior.

In essence because lds have not removed polygamy from the doctrine and that they seal to men many wives for their future planets, lds do in fact still practice polygamy. The flds are in fact practicing what Joseph Smith handed down. Regardless of their actual numbers they are operating according to the original doctrines. Sorry that's just they way it is.

And, in the process; LIES!

Just what was pointed out!
