The Questions and loeir Answers.
"Subscriber" asked certain
questions , of our corresponde nt
who treated Mormonism to a bit-
ter dose a few issues ago. Below
we append the questions with Mr.
Fisher's answer to each.
We suspect from Mr. Fisher's
term, "your creed or society," that
he construes subscriber as favor
able to Mormonism, which j we
hardly think, but we leave the
matter between them, save thut
we ask that no effort be made
through The Standard to palliate
IMormbnism, or by the appearance
of persecution, to win to it there
by the inconsiderate and the im
pulsive : I
j Editor Standard For per
gonal edification "subscriber"
would like lor your contributor on
Mormonism last week to answer
the following questions pertaining
to our proper attitude: .
1. Did Christianitv rise and
flourish in the face of the bloody
cross of Judaism ?
Ans. Whether it did or did not, '
it does not prove anything foi
Mormonism of the present day.
2. Did civil authority and indi
vidual opposition prevent the for
mation of different denominations?
Ans. In its true sense it never
attempted to do so.
3. Has persecution ever elimi
nated a religious society ?
Ans. You have never succeeded
to any alarming extent in making
intelligent people believe that
your society and creed was relig-
ion.
''.
4. Is it the object of the Bos
ton Tea party scheme to suppress
Mormonism or simply to harass
those who promulgate it ? .'4'.
An?. The Boston Tea party was
an act of the people outside oHaw
to correct a 'wrong.
45. Was the Boston Tea party a
inepre to secure religious re
form ?
Ans. It had nothing to do with
religion whatever and certainly
.not with Mormonism ?
, dan civil and religious matters
"be properly managed by the same
methods?
Ans. With the criminal 'and
stained history of the church and
iits early prophets, would it not be
great" stretch of imagination j to
-call the Mormon creed and prac
tice either civil or religious.
iShould mob law be encouraged ?
Ans. Not if it could be safely
avoided. But when crime ancl
criminals flourish in defiance of
law to the great injury and detri
ment ot innocent and good people
and thr law does not, or cannot
xeach t 3m, then the people have
ia, duty to perform and they 'have
generally done it.
