Prophet Joseph Smith. Without him, there would be no LDS movement that proclaims itself Christian, because Joseph Smith said so. LDS is the abbreviation for "Latter-Day Saints", which is part of the official name of the church, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints". The church was founded in 1830 by Joseph Smith and 5 others in upstate New York. It has grown to now have more than 13 million members worldwide. Does that answer your question or is there more I can answer for you?

When were the LDS allowed in the LDS church?

I don't know why you asked that question. "LDS" means "Latter Day Saints" and refers to anyone who is a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, or LDS church. That is pretty self explanatory. So the LDS were ALWAYS allowed in the LDS church because the LDS church is made up of only LDS people. Duh.


Can a non-member of the LDS join an LDS dating website?

I'm not sure, it probably depends on the site since LDS-specific sites are usually full of LDS members looking to date other LDS members. LDSSingles.com, LDSPlanet.com, LDSMingle.com, and LDSSingleSite.com are a few LDS dating sites you can try.
