The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Strangite) is a denomination of the Latter Day Saint movement with around three hundred members as of 1998. It is an entirely separate organization from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is considerably larger and better-known, although both churches claim to be the original organization established by Joseph Smith, on April 6, 1830. The Strangite church is headquartered in Voree, Wisconsin, just outside Burlington, and accepts the claims of James Strang as successor to Joseph Smith, as opposed to those of Brigham Young, Sidney Rigdon, Joseph Smith III, or any other Mormona leader.

—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

Ruled by the God Apollo’s golden mean—”
