Mormonism

HUM/130

I know that we have all seen Mormons on the side of the road riding bikes in suits and knocking on doors to spread the word of their religion. Have you ever answered the door? I have always avoided the door to door Mormons until now. Somewhere in Kirtland Ohio was the beginning headquarters for Joseph Smith. Joseph Smith was the founder of the Church of Latter Day Saints. This is also known as the Mormon religion. Later there were financial issue which led Joseph Smith to move the headquarters to the Midwest. After looking at many locations he chose Missouri, then he built his second temple in Nauvoo, Illinois. Joseph Smith was later accused of polygamy and aspiring to create a theocracy. These charges led to his assassination by an angry mob of non- Mormons.
