Antagonism toward the Mormon Church

July 23, 2024momonthegoinholytoledo

The history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) is marked by significant episodes of persecution from its founding in the early 19th century through its migration to the western United States. The persecution faced by early Mormons involved social ostracism, economic hardship, legal challenges, and violent mob actions, all of which played a pivotal role in shaping the church’s development and migration patterns. However, the antagonism did not end in the 1800s. Today, persecution of Mormons continues, but it takes more subtle forms, including a host of literature, which includes things like the CES Letter. A summary of CES Letter is that it is around 80 pages of arguments against the Mormon Church. There are thirteen sections and many more subsections in the document–the majority of which are arguments against the history of the church.
