Transcription

Not only do divisions exist among the Latter-day Saints as a whole, but they also exist in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Some Mormons have told us that Christ was a polygamist and others have denied it. Some maintain that Adam is the God of this world, and others deny it. Some, at one tie, taught a peculiar doctrine of "blood atonement," while others deny it today.
