THE MORMONS CLAIM THAT THEIR LDS CHURCH IS THE *RESTORED* ONE TRUE
CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST

DECIDE FOR YOURSELF IF THE FOLLOWING HISTORY OF THE LDS CHURCH SOUNDS
LIKE THE *RESTORED* TEACHINGS OF JESUS

In 1877, John D. Lee instanced the case of Bishop Warren Stone Snow of
Manti, San Pete County, Utah. "He had several wives, but there was a
fair, buxom young woman in the town that Snow wanted for a wife. She
thanked him for the honor offered, but told him she was then engaged to
a young man, a member of the church, and consequently could not marry
the old priest.

He told her it was the will of God that she should marry him, and she
must do so; that the young man could be got rid of, sent on a mission .
. . that, in fact, it was contrary to do the wishes of the authorities,
so a promise made to the young man was not binding."

The girl and her fiance both refused to give her up. Ordered to go on a
mission, the man refused. Snow decided that he should be castrated,
saying, 'When that is done, he will not be liable to want the girl
badly, and she will listen to reason when she knows that her lover is no
longer a man.'"
