JOSEPH SMITH ( founder of Mormons ).

Joseph Smith was killed by a mob in Carthage, Illinois, US on 27th June 1844, while awaiting trial.
He was mayor of the city of Nauvoo, Illinois, and had ordered the destruction of a printing works which had criticised him for polygamy and calling himself the theocratic king. Public outrage of this revelation resulted in the death of himself and his brother.
Apparently, according to Smith, God had made a commandment to have multiple wives. He always stated that he only had one wife, but reports are that he had 40.
Over 16 million Mormons exist worldwide.
You may wonder why.

I always figure that mob was 40 or so male Mormons retaliating for pulling the wool over their eyes.???

It's amazing how certain characters in history can influence the lives of so many people, rightly or wrongly. Smith, Jesus, Mohamed, Hitler, to name just a few.
If you can name any more feel free to do so.

Many of these 'saviors' have their own personal motives...like Warren Jeffs and his late father...a whole community that has lead to nothing but a strange perversion in the name of faith...
Be careful of who tries to influence you...

Many of these Mormons have been brought up in families and indoctrinated since being children, and appear to have been sheltered from the normal social events that other young people experience. I spent time with a few young sisters( name given to the female missionaries), who pay money (called a tithe) regularly to the organisation and also pay for much of their travelling whilst promoting their beliefs. I bought them some items to help out, and though they appeared happy, I couldn't help feeling sorry for the world they existed in.
