Nice try but your rubber band broke on that one!
none of those are recognized by the president and resident prophet of the church.
You really should stop trying to apply your mainstream misconceptions to the LDS!
What is not recognized is the anti LDS boloney!
LOL resty - none of the sites I listed are authorized reps of the ‘church’. Its bologna sandwiches for lds.
FARMS, is a part of BYU and the others are apologist many who are affiliated to BYU.
they are recognized as members of the Church like those LDS freepers who give their apologist opinion.
Which is a far cry from those who try to pose as LDS and who are not members of the Church.
Godzilla, stop with all the malarkey; insincere, nonsense talk
Show me the statements that clearly state that they speak for the church on matters of doctrine. Being a part of byu does not suffice.
You being silly any one can be an appologis tot their faith in which they are member.
You must be bored to continue this asinine behavior!
Then they are doing it without the president’s blessing.
....are you lonely tonight every one is out of town?

I think there was a misunderstanding of what I was trying to convey.
There are groups that take the name of LDS or of a Catholic order and they are not recognized by the Heads of those churches.
Those kinds of groups should not be posted as if they are member in some way or was once related to the official Church.
That is the distinction I was trying to make.
I agree. FAIR has this disclaimer, albeit in tiny print, at the bottom of their main page:
FAIR is not owned, controlled by, or affiliated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. All research and opinions provided on this site are the sole responsibility of FAIR and should not be interpreted as official statements of LDS doctrine, belief, or practice.
My point exactly :)
Need I say more...
PBRM!
But I am a member of The Lord’s Church I am not a member of those others who are not recognized by the president as members any more than those who are Catholic are not a member of the non-recognized Orders that are not recognized by the Pope!
[Yes I am aware that it does seem one, are all of the RM seems to have a double standard on this issue.

It doesn’t matter. I’m not going to demand credentials of every source a Freeper thinks has something to say concerning the issues.]
LDS apologist opinions are not “affiliated” as in speak for TCOJCOLDS or the official word on Church teachings but the LDS apologist still are members of TCOJCOLDS.
There is a giant different between this, and those who cannot grasp that either one is either bearing falsehood or lacks discernment!
