Church Seeks to Address Public Confusion Over Texas Polygamy Group

Last night on the news a spokesperson for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints said there is much confusion going on right now with regard to the LDS & FLDS church. He asked us to spread the word through blogging, email, and word of mouth. You can go to www.lds.org and see all of the many articles that are out. They also released some videos of members of the LDS church in Texas. Here is an article stating the beliefs and differences from the FLDS church and ours.

More than a third of those surveyed (36 percent) erroneously thought that the Texas compound was part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or "Mormon Church" based in Salt Lake City
6 percent said the two groups were partly related.
29 percent correctly said the two groups were not connected at all
29 percent were not sure.
In addition, when asked specifically which religious organization members of the polygamous group belonged to:

30 percent said "Mormon," "LDS" or "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints"
14 percent said "FLDS"
6 percent said "Mormon fundamentalists"
Nearly half (44 percent) were unsure
