Does the wrath of God prove Gods anger with Mormons as a sign to the world?

Do you have any evidence of the wrath of God being against Mormons in particular? Nothing has occurred that seems to be specifically targeted against Mormonism, which would lead me to believe that the wrath of God is not against the Mormons, therefore proving that He is not angry with them.

Are Mormons against metaphysics?

The doctrines and teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) do not correlate with those of metaphysics. That is, you could not honestly believe in both metaphysics and Mormonism. That being said, Mormons are not 'against' metaphysics. It is a fundamental belief of Mormons that all people should have the freedom to believe and worship as they choose. Mormons recognize metaphysics as a legitimate belief system, just one which they don't personally believe in. Mormons are welcome to study and learn about metaphysics if it interests them.

Why were the people persecuting the mormens?

People are naturally hostile against those who appear 'different' from themselves. Mormons are persecuted by people who believe that they are too different to be accepted into society. Historically, the worst persecution was in the 1830's and 1840's, when Mormons were forced from their homes four times - in New York, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois. Often this was because the local residents were afraid that Mormons would become the majority and sway local politics. Also many people did not like that Mormonism was not a traditional Christian religion. Today, persecution against Mormons is mostly done by those who misunderstand the teachings of the church or by those who disagree with the conservative standards of Mormons.


How were Mormons persecuted?

Historically, Mormons were persecuted by being kicked out of their homes and chased out of their settlements, some were even killed. Today, persecution against Mormons is much less brutal. Typically they are only persecuted by harsh words and negative attitudes, although occassionally their homes or churches are vandalized. You can check out some examples of how Mormons have been persecuted historically and in modern times at the "Related Links" below.


What states were the Mormons driven from?

The Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) were kicked out of Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois in the 1800's. Although the Church now exists in these states, it didn't for about half a century afterwards. In fact, an Extermination Order against the Mormons was still on the books in Missouri until the 1970's.


Who followed the Mormons to Utah?
