Latter Day Saint Polygamy in The Late 19th Century - Polygamy in The 20th Century

Polygamy in The 20th Century

Currently the LDS church does not sanction polygamy and considers practitioners to be apostate and worthy of excommunication. The church still confirms that polygamy is a divine doctrine, but that observation of the practice is currently prohibited by God. The Community of Christ does not, nor has ever adhered to the practice of polygamy. Notably, the FLDS church still adheres to the commandment as practiced in the early days of the movement. The LDS church (Strangite) does not observe polygamy, but recognizes the historical doctrine. Other sects in the Latter Day Saint movement have various opinions on the doctrine.
