Mormon Trek
Joseph Smith. Plural Marriage, no original sin. They migrate from New York to Ohio. John Smith goes crazy and breaks there printing press. While in jail he is murdered. Briggim Young replaces Smith. Smith claimed to have found and translated The Book of Mormon by divine revelation. It tells the story of a group of Hebrews who migrated to America c. 600 bc and is taken as scriptural alongside the Bible. The Mormons came into conflict with the U.S. government over their prac- tice of polygamy (officially abandoned in 1890) and moved their headquarters from Illinois to Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1847 under Smith's successor, Brigham Young. Mormon doctrine emphasizes tith- ing, missionary work, and the Second Coming of Christ.
