Honor Killings In Mormonism - Page 3
QUOTE (haleray @ 12-Oct 09, 12:22 AM) In the Mormon church there is no honor killings, however I can almost understand why someone would try to keep the family's honor by killing their son or daughter that does drugs, get pregnant before marriage, or anything else that dishonors the family's name.
I'm curious about this statement what do you mean by you can almost understand people who kill their own kids 'cause they use drugs or pregnant before marriage? I mean its insane you know what am I saying? Also I won't be so sure to say those who acted in the MM massacre acted alone it seems like the historical facts arent very accurate.
But answering the question directly, yeah we don't believe in honor killings.

Honor Killings In Mormonism Studies Doctrine Mormon
Yes. There was quite a bit of honour killing in the early Mormon church. Most of it was an extension of the Blood Atonement. This included loose women having their heads removed and randy men having their manhood removed. Look up the Danites also know by various other names including Avenging Angels. Brlgham Young actually bragged about it. That can be found in the original Journal of Discourses.

Do you have a source for that, are you getting that from the Journals of Discourses or diaries of those who lived at the time?
