FLDS and LDS

LDS Newsroom Article

The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) is a break-off from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS). They both; therefore, have similar origins, practices and beliefs. This does not mean they are one in the same. Many people jump to conclusions about which beliefs and practices are the same and end up causing a great deal of confusion. It is probably best to view them as wholly separate religions rather than different versions of the same religion so as to avoid ascribing beliefs and practices to one or the other mistakenly.

Let me know if you have any questions I can try to answer.
