The Mormon Badge team is proud to announce the release of our first badge, “Mormons and Polygamy.” A common misconception about Mormons is that some Mormon men have multiple wives. They don’t. As you’ll learn, the practice of polygamy in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was discontinued over one hundred years ago. This badge explains a few basic facts about the history of the Mormon church and polygamy.
Are you ready to get informed about Mormons and polygamy and earn your first Mormon Badge?
Here are the steps:
- Spend just 10 minutes reading the official material from LDS Church websites in these two links: http://mormon.org/faq/practice-of-polygamy (pay attention to the comments by real Mormons) and http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/article/polygamy-latter-day-saints-and-the-practice-of-plural-marriage
- Take our short “Mormons and Polygamy” quiz -yes, it’s open book- by clicking this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHNnWmtmZEkzV2tORjFqRVB2d1BPbHc6MQ. If you get the answers right, we’ll email you the link to claim your “Mormons and Polygamy” Badge from our badge hoster-site, badg.us. After we email you the link, we’ll never use your address again to contact you or for any other purpose.
- Claim your badge by clicking the badg.us link in the email. You’ll be able to display your badge in your Mozilla Badge Backpack and post it to your blog or website, showing your friends that you are informed about Mormonism!
- Tell all your friends to come and earn the badge too!
