Blaine:  The splinter groups have mostly gone away--only a few of them remain, and as is evident with the somewhat numerous fundamentalists down on the Utah-Arizona border, they are falling aprt, too.  Warren Jeffs, the "spiritual leader," seems to be better described as a despotic lunatic whose only ambition is to bilk the members out of an increasing % of their incomes, for what he calles a "tithe," which by the way he retains full control over.  He likes playing God, I guess, but I don't see that it will last forever.  Sooner or later, his victims will see the light. In fact, many already have, which is the reason they are having so much trouble.  On the other hand, the true LDS Church seems to be growing stronger as it lays it's sure foundation in Jesus Christ.

But they consider you (LDS) the dead trunk that has departed from the faith. They all say they have the True Restored Gospel.
Who is right? The caucaphony from all these splinter groups makes it so hard to tell which divergant path is the true restoration.

With over 200 LDS Splinter groups claiming to be a "restoration" and followers of JoE Smith, how does this equate to ONE faith?

At least as good as Mormonism, eh? LOL.

Peace be with you.
