The Brighamite Church of Christ
I have been working to cite the List of sects in the Latter Day Saint movement so that "Fake" group that no one has ever heard if and there is no proof they ever existed can be deleted without such a long wait and so much discussions. I have seen at least 5 of these “Fake” groups (ULDS, Latter Day Church of Christ the Lamb, etc) in the last year or so and they stay on this list WAY to long.

However, I don't want to accidentally set up a group to be removed when it really dose exist, to I wanted to check with you to see if you can tell me where you got the information on the "The Brighamite Church of Christ". Shields, Adherents.com, and “The Primer” show no such group and they are pretty good at listing all of them, even the ones no one in the group wants people to know about. I even did a yahoo and Google search of both the church name and Nephi Smith and got nothing.

Considering the claim of "6500 members" and a founding date of 1891 that would make this group older than all "fundamentalist" groups and larger then all of them except the FLDS church, yet nothing can be found on this group. Can give some citation so it wont be removed if it really exists.--ARTEST4ECHO talk 12:57, 7 April 2010 (UTC)


 * I removed the following from Brighamite factional group


 * The Brighamite Church of Christ
 * Nephi Smith
 * 1891
 * The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
 * 6500 members. Headquartered outside of Keokuk, Iowa.
 * Practices plural marriage and the law of adoption. Continues use of the Deseret Alphabet for most church documents.


 * I want to give you a chance to cite your addition without loseing the information. Unfortunately right now I and several other editors think this group is another "Fake" group that get added all the time. Shields, Adherents.com, yahoo, and Google show no such group or church founder called Nephi Smith in 1981. Also, considering the claim of data of founding and "6500 members" that makes this group older than all "fundamentalist" groups and larger then all of them except the FLDS church, yet nothing can be found on this group.  Unless you can give some citation it should stay removed.--ARTEST4ECHO talk 16:40, 21 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Since you have not been able to give a reference or citation to this group actually existing, unfortunately, I have been forced to removed the group. However, you are more then welcome to put it back if you can cite this group.  We want to have as complete a list as possible.--ARTEST4ECHO talk 14:33, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
