Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mormon Problem, the Nation's Dilemma: A New Data, New Method, Involving Leading Questions of the Day The Mormon problem is related to some of the deeper prob lems of civilization, as well as to questions of the greatest practi cal moment; while it also offers some of the finest, truest lessons, in. The ethics of reform. But we have lived virtually under a reign of terror as regards this question. There are few persons who cannot tell how the Mormons should be dealt with, but not one in ten thousand has taken any pains to get at the truth; while the silence of a large class accustomed to think for them selves is one of the strangest features of the controversy. Noth ing will prove truer than that Mormonism is providential in being the means of emphazing reforms which the conceit or lethargy of an age is wont to leave to chance or fate. It is time this anti-mormon crusade were at an end, and a reform inauger ated whose life is the music of principle. The course hitherto pursued toward Utah, even though it were to end in the sup pression of polygamy, must partake more of the nature of defeat than of victory. The future must reveal the lack of principle or wisdom in that legislation which betrays no consciousness of the fact, that the difficulties of this Mormon problem are closely allied to questions with which we are confronted outside of Utah.

Download or read book The Mormon Question written by Sarah Barringer Gordon and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-01-14 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Mormon Church's public announcement of its sanction of polygamy in 1852 until its formal decision to abandon the practice in 1890, people on both sides of the "Mormon question" debated central questions of constitutional law. Did principles of religious freedom and local self-government protect Mormons' claim to a distinct, religiously based legal order? Or was polygamy, as its opponents claimed, a new form of slavery--this time for white women in Utah? And did constitutional principles dictate that democracy and true liberty were founded on separation of church and state? As Sarah Barringer Gordon shows, the answers to these questions finally yielded an apparent victory for antipolygamists in the late nineteenth century, but only after decades of argument, litigation, and open conflict. Victory came at a price; as attention and national resources poured into Utah in the late 1870s and 1880s, antipolygamists turned more and more to coercion and punishment in the name of freedom. They also left a legacy in constitutional law and political theory that still governs our treatment of religious life: Americans are free to believe, but they may well not be free to act on their beliefs.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER H. THE EXTENT OF THE EVIL. 1. Its Numerical Strength. The growth of Mormonism has been without a parallel in the history of any religious or irreligious movement. In 1826 Joseph Smith claimed to have discovered the gold plates on which, it was alleged, were engraved the contents of the Book of Mormon. In 1830 the Church was organized in Seneca County, New York, with but six members. On the 14th of April, 184-7, a party of one hundred and forty-eight, led by Brigham Young, started for the Rocky Mountains, and, on the 24th. of July, 1847, entered Salt Lake Valley. In 1860 there had come to be forty thousand Mormons in Utah. In ten years the number had increased to eighty-seven thousand. In ten years more, namely, in 1880, there were one hundred and twenty-five thousand in Utah, with about twentyfive thousand more in the adjacent States and Territories. There are at least one hundred thousand more in their mission-fields and conferences through out the world. So that in the little more than fifty' years since the Church was organized, a man who came forward with a lie in his mouth and ajrtolen manuscript in his hand to proclaim one of the most' monstrous delusions of all time, has obtained a following of more than a quarter of million of souls. From this stand-point the outlook for the future is most alarming. Fifty years ago the Church began its work with six members--now it numbers two hundred and fifty thousand: then, the first convert and dupe mortgaged his farm to publish the first edition of the Book of Mormon; now, a million dollars is collected annually through the tithing system: then, the handful of believers were without character, reputation, or influence, now, the leaders are, many of them, men of learning and...

Download or read book The Mystery and Controversy Surrounding Mormonism written by Walt Scott and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mormon Church is the fourth largest church in the US. Though organized in 1830, and with a current worldwide membership of over thirteen million and annual growth rate of about three hundred thousand, it is without a doubt the least well-understood major church. Surveys show the public has good feelings and respect for members, but ignorance and even animosity toward the Church's beliefs and history. This timely book addresses ignorance, misunderstanding, and misinformation, providing a clear, factual, and comprehensive picture. It deals candidly with the issues and questions people are asking, with solid, documented reasons and facts. The hope is to increase tolerance, respect and good feelings. We may not see things the same way, but we can at least try to understand and respect each other. The book is in two parts, with different levels of detail, for different levels of interests, and easy reading. Walt Scott, a fifth generation Mormon, has twelve ancestors who crossed the planes. One joined the new church in 1837, seven years after it was organized. This book benefits from that legacy and the author's lifelong experiences in leadership and teaching. He has degrees in electrical engineering and management from George Washington University and MIT (Sloan Fellow). Walt, a "pioneer" himself, was part of a small team that built several of the U.S.'s first satellites, forerunners of today's GPS systems. He joined NASA at its inception, becoming a division director at age 34 (protocol rank of one star general). He was co-founder of a company that pioneered methods for early identification of leadership talent. When PC's were first introduced, he became a self-trained consultant. Later, he and his son designed and managed the construction of modular homes, a technology that was quite new when they began. Walt has served four times as a Bishop's Counselor, twice on Stake High Councils, and in numerous teaching assignments. He and his wife, June Langston Scott, have been married for fifty-three years and have six children, nineteen grandchildren and eight great grandchildren. From that group and their spouses, there have been twelve who have served fulltime missions for the Church, with another preparing to leave shortly, and more anticipating that experience. They have served in New York, Texas, England, France, Russia, Chile, Uruguay, Brazil and Taiwan.
