“Beneath the sands of the once-beautiful land lie the bones of more than 120 men, women and children slain at Mountain Meadows in 1857, their mortal remains left to the caprices of nature and their killers protected by Utahs peculiar theocracy. Only one participant was ever punished for the butchery, although more than 50 men took part.”
This doesn’t help early day PR either...

In a different thread Mark Twain criticised the Book of Mormon for amongst many things being written in the prosaic style of the King James Bible from some 300 years earier which is NOT the language or style of God and not that of Brigham Young.Everyone makes the charge of Brigham Young plagarizing from a KJV of the bible.
However, Mormons use this as proof that since it isnt in Brigham Youngs style or style of the times its proof its from God!
