I have been researching the Mormons and want to join the one that is the most true to the teaching of Joseph Smith but I can't find a web site for them. They are called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints.

Because I believe in the things that Joseph Smith did. [ie. polygamy, cult aspects (Spirit Children), racism, etc.]

Is it true that they get to wear different underwear?

Good luck with that. You sound like you would fit right in with them.

First of all, most of the people here are getting the main LDS faith that is based in Utah but is world wide, mixed with the Fundamentalists sect that still believes in polygamy and is not part of the main church.
The "fundamentalists" tend to keep to themselves and don't follow the tradition of missionary work. Warren Jeffs (currently in jail and on trial) is head, or prophet, of the fundamentalist groups. if you really want to join their group the best way to do so is to find where their communities are and ask around. that's about it.
The main LDS or Mormon Faith denounces the term "fundamentalist", and does not recognize these religions. Although I can kind of see why people would call the fundamentalists and similar a cult. But the main LDS faith id no more of a cult then Roman Catholicism (which is an oxymoron name in itself).

the FLDS (Fundamentalish Church of Latter Day Saints) is NOT the same as the real, mainstream Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. That splinter group is not recognized as a sect of the Mormon faith because they go against present-day Church doctrine.
To find out about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) I would suggest www.mormon.org

That particular branch of the mormons isn't really into accepting more "men" into the church. They have too many as it is. They are forcing them out in some cases. Now if you were a woman I doubt you will see any resistance.

First off if you are talking about the fundy mormons you must wait until you are old to marry a teenage girl and then another teen girl for a wife. If you are talkign about the LDS church in Utah, then you must be wanting to become a God, that evolution/pagan idea...enjoy.

I suggest that you do a little more research before you make such a big change. I don't know about a website for the FLDS, but there is a site for the LDS church and it's lds.org or mormon.org (but from your comments I don't think you're interested in the LDS church.)

I see. You are trying to expose j smith and the mormons because of their silly and dangerous beliefs and practices. Who would believe in an angel named Moroni, anyway. Whenever I write that name I think of a song from my youth by Larry Williams called "I Got a Girl Named Boney Moroni." Tell Mitt Romney that he should change religions if he wants to be president.

Dont! and further your research.
Dont follow J. Smith, follow the one that made J. Smith, God, and his Son Jesus.
Moromism is a cleary defined cult.
Like the saying goes, dont worship the stars, worship the one that made the stars.
Read that bible, and pray for guidance from the Holy Spirit.

Go to Salt Lake City and research it.. They will be hard to find, but they are there. They have to be underground because all of that is illegal.. They are criminals..
Being racist and having multiple wives is illegal in the USA.
