DYNAMITE! An indictment against organised religion at it's WORST!

I've been studying this incident for meny years, and having just seen SEPTEMBER DAWN, it rekindled my dislike and mistrust for organized religion, especially these loonies! The LDS church has NEVER come close to admitting even knowledge of the incident, much less full-blown blame for it. Brigham ...

What a page turner!

+ forgery as a religious weapon

While I'm already familiar with the story of Mark Hofmann and his horrific acts of coldblooded violence, I was quite surprised at how fascinating this book is in retelling the story of his forgeries and murders, along with the gripping tales of the people (good and evil) who were involved. I ...

Leaving the Saints: How I Lost the Mormons and Found My Faith202 reviews

Crown, 2005

If you want to know about the mysterious Mormon church . . .

+ An original work from an original thinker

I grew up in a town that was 98% Mormon. Being in the minority, I spent my youth being either left out because I wasn't Mormon or barraged by members of the church to become one of them. If they are anything, Mormons are as relentlessas they are exclusionary. So I thought I knew a just about ...

+ Blood of the Prophets: Brigham Young and the Massacre at Mountain Meadows
+ A difficult and gruesome tale.

i found a reference to this in re-reading Krakauer's Under the Banner of Heaven. Juanita Brooks' Mountain Meadows Massacre had been, for me, the bible about these doings. Bagley has gained access to additional information (eg, letters, meeting notes, etc) and fleshes out the context of the ...
