The Mormon Militia depicted in the new Netflix show American Primeval is insane for all the wrong reasons. . This gritty “historical fiction” of the old American West features members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly known as Mormons, as villains. . Yet even one of the show’s historical consultants admitted, it's “definitely not an accurate history of anything,” so here's what it gets wrong about Latter-day Saint history. . First the show has a Mormon militia known as the Nauvoo Legion riding in with hoods to destroy an innocent pioneer company, and then it eliminates an entire regiment of US Federal Troops, and then an entire Shoshone village, just to cover their tracks. . In reality, the Nauvoo legion never, once, saw, combat. . Latter-day Saints also never attacked a wagon train of pioneers at Fort Bridger. . Nor did they harm a single soldier of the US Federal Army. Even during the “Utah War.” . And they never destroyed a Shoshone village to cover their tracks of the first crime. . All of these plot elements paint Latter-day Saints as a radical and zealously hostile religious group, yet all of these plot points are 100% fiction. . Some of the show’s characters are based on real people, such as Brigham Young, Bill Hickman, and Jim Bridger. . Yet again, this is more fiction than fact, such as in the depiction of Brigham Young as a ruthless and unaliving empire builder, which is simply not supported by the documents we have of his life. . Now to be clear, there are examples in Latter-day Saint history where they were the aggressors, such as in the Mountain Meadows Mass***e, or the Black Hawk War. These are complex and horrifying events that I think deserve careful study and discussion. . But the way this show exaggerates, expands, and conflates multiple, isolated events into a single plot—just to ramp up the violins—can perpetuate harmful stereotypes about the religion. . To learn the truth about Mountain Meadows, I recommend watching this video on the Scripture Central YouTube channel. . #lds #prolds #churchofjesuschristoflatterdaysaints #churchhistory #brighamyoung #mountainmeadows
![Every time someone tells me to stop being so sensitive about how Latter-day Saints are portrayed in media, I'm going to share this video because even fictional narratives have consequences. . “Did you know the Mormons were serial [unalivers] in the wild west? Like legitimately insane [group] of just serial [unalivers]…I’m watching American Primeval on Netflix and this seems pretty historically accurate... This show is insane.” @mad_hatter_news . Yes this show is insane. BECAUSE it's so historically inaccurate. And if you don't believe me, even the show's historical consultant, an exmormon, admitted that the show "is definitely not an accurate history of anything." . No, the Mormons weren't serial enders. They never ended that wagon train, the US army, or the Shoshone village like the show depicts. . And the caricature of Brigham Young is totally unsupported by surviving documents from the time. . The show seems to make an homage to events like the Mountain Meadows [Unaliving], which is arguably one of the darkest days in our history where Latter-day Saints were the aggressors. . But this tragic event was not a top-down order from Brigham Young, Latter-day Saints are not systemically [violin], and the way this show portrayed all of this is just. not. it. .

If Joseph Smith didn't make up the first vision, why didn't he write it down first thing? Why did it take him 12 years before recording such an important event? . Well that's easy, he did write it down first thing. Joseph Smith never recorded any of his life before 1832. The first time he took time to write about his life in 1832, he talked about the First Vision. . Writing personal histories or keeping a journal wasn't nearly as universal for a 19th century farmer as it is in today's age of Google memories and Notes apps . But the other thing is that he explained why he kept this Vision on the down-low for a while. When he tried to tell people about it, they gave him a really hard time about it. He said that "telling the story had excited a great deal of prejudice against me among professors of religion and was the cause of great persecution which continued to increase." . So there's an understandable reason why one would be reluctant to shout it from the rooftops as a young teenager. . If you've already decided that Joseph Smith fabricated the event, I'm not about to change your mind, but if you're open to exploring the possibilities, there's plenty of room for faith. .
