The Awakening of Social Conscience
The Awakening of Social Conscience
Many people began to feel that religion was tied to social causes.
This led many churches to become involved with social movements like abolitionism (no slavery), prison reform, women’s rights, and temperance (no alcohol).

Some of these groups were the Baptists, Shakers, and Mormons.

Who Were the Mormons?Who Were the Mormons?
“Mormon” was a nickname given by enemies of the followers of Joseph Smith in the early 1830s.
Smith said that he had visions that had led to him discovering & translating an ancient book called the Book of Mormon.

Gathering the SaintsGathering the Saints Joseph Smith organized
a church he called the Church of Christ. This name was later changed to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Smith called for his followers, who called themselves saints, to move to “ a gathering place,” or “Zion.”
This large gathering of Mormons, along with their religious, political and economic beliefs, often frightened their neighbors who did not understand their beliefs, which led to persecutions.

A Series of MovesA Series of Moves
This climate of conflict and misunderstanding led to the Mormons being forced to move again and again; from New York to Nauvoo.
In Missouri there was even an extermination order. The governor, Lilburn Boggs, and the state legislature said all the Mormons must leave or they could be killed.

Misunderstandings & Conflicts
Misunderstandings & Conflicts
There were many problems between the Mormons and their neighbors, mostly because of religious, political, and economic differences. These misunderstandings led to conflicts. The Mormons claims to be the only true church (more about new
scriptures, many religions believe they are the one true church) & that Joseph Smith was said to be modern prophet sometimes upset people other religions who didn’t believe that was possible.
The Mormons believed in a gathering place, which meant that thousands would move together to a place. They often outnumbered their neighbors.
In elections, the Mormons tended to all vote the same way, which led their neighbors to fear that they would take over state & local politics.
In Missouri slavery was an important issue. Many Mormons were from the North and the people in Missouri were mostly from the South. This made them afraid the Mormons would oppose slavery.
The Mormons in Ohio at first lived a communal economic lifestyle, meaning that everyone gave what they had to the church for the good of the whole group. This gave church leaders a lot of power.
Some LDS church leaders had secretly began practicing polygamy, meaning that a man could marry more than one wife. Many non-Mormons felt this was very wrong.

NauvooNauvoo
Fleeing Missouri, the Mormons arrived in Quincy, Illinois where the people helped them and took them in.
The Mormons then gathered farther north in a swampland that they later drained and transformed it into a new town called Nauvoo.
For many years they lived in peace, but eventually, as other towns in the area grew, their neighbors became wary and fearful of the LDS communities.

Continuing trouble in Nauvoo
Continuing trouble in Nauvoo
A newspaper, created by a former Mormon, began printing stories about young girls being kidnapped to become the wives of Joseph Smith.
The town’s city council met, very angry about the stories, and declared the paper was guilty of libel.
They asked Smith to have the press destroyed and it was. Many accused the Mormons of going against Freedom of the Press.

PersecutionsPersecutions
Mobs began attacking Mormons and burning homes in Nauvoo.
Smith and other leaders of the church were arrested and taken to jail.
There Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum were killed by an angry mob. For the Mormons, Joseph & Hyrum were martyrs.What do you think? Freedom of
religion is guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. Do you think the LDS people were denied this freedom? Why or why not?

Exodus from IllinoisExodus from Illinois
The Mormons decided to move again. Many walked across the frozen Mississippi River in the middle of winter.
Some Mormons didn’t leave Nauvoo including many of Joseph Smith’s family.
Around 17,000 people had to leave Nauvoo, led by a new leader, Brigham Young.
Can you think of groups today who want to be left alone to live their beliefs?
What happens when their beliefs go against the laws of the land or against what other people think is right?
