Get in touch with others
We are Mormon Fundamentalists—but some of us are quite progressive!
The 'Independent Mormon Fundamentalist Friends' invites healthy discussion on any topics related to Mormon Fundamentalism.
We believe your interpretations of Mormon doctrines are as valid as anyone else's. We also believe diversity makes for great discussion.
We hope you will feel free to express yourself, learn, and edify others.
You can also connect your device to listen to podcasts, watch TV on demand and check out some craft.

We closed our Yahoo Discussion Group as of February 2020 but we continue to promote the very active Mormon Fundamentalism Facebook group, which is open to everyone.

Restoration of All Things "The Restoration of ALL things Just what was the “The Restoration”? What was to be restored? Just Christ’s Church? Or other things as well? "
The Kingdom or Nothing: A Marvelous Work "Mormons in the Late 19th Century wanted to build the Kingdom of God, at any cost. let us remember that desire.
Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and John Taylor, Wilford Woodruff, Lorenzo Snow, and their worthy contemporaries dreamt of Freedom from Babylon, and had the True Independence of Heaven, and they had Obedience to Heaven. A Marvelous Work and a Wonder is still to come forth, let us "remember, remember" what the prophets have left us."
