Krackauer takes this one murder to malign an entire religious group. He starts with this one factual event and then launches a chain of supposition and speculation clearly intended to attack the Mormon church. It's a beautifully written book and hits such an emotional chord in people (tabloid style) that readers forget his core piece of evidence is ONE murder.>

Baloney. What are you talking about?

Krakauer tells the entire history of the Mormon church. From the beginning i.e. the golden tablets and the huckster who sold that nonsense to a bunch of naïve people.

Do you believe in the golden tablets? Funny they disappeared isn't it-lol!

Did you read the entire book? Doesn't sound like it.

He gives the specifics about how plural wives got in there and the journey west.

He tells the entire story from beginning to end.

What you talk about took place in the first 10 pages.
