Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mormonism Exposed: The Other Side, a Clergyman´s View of the Case It is a great satisfaction to find The Index, at this test point of the Mormon question, acting in complete harmony with its professions as the organ of free thought by giving to each side of it a fair and equal hearing. A few years ago, it was almost impossible to get a word into an eastern journal aiming to solve it on any broad and generous principles; even our well-known Unitarian paper, pre-eminent for its general fairness, refusing, after printing columns against the Mormons, to give on the other side the testimony of the United States census, and of such men as Bishop Tuttle, Chief Justice White, and the Hon. Hugh McCullough, simply correcting its own mistakes. It is not by any means the greatest question before the public, but it is one which touches some points of religious freedom and of its relation to moral judgments more deeply than any other. And it is one which, not only on its own account, but in the interest of all religion, needs full and frank discussion. The first step in this, as in all such questions, is to do justice to the Mormons themselves, recognize all that is worthy and good among them, and then, from the vantage-ground of this justice, assail what is wrong and bad. Mr. Potter speaks of the difficulty of getting at the exact facts with regard to their condition, such contradictory stories are told about them, and ascribes the good said of them to the circumstance that visitors in Utah for a short time see only the surface of things, and are so dazed with its material prosperity as to make their testimony of but little worth.
