 What of the Mormons? Here is a question which has been earnestly asked for more than a century. Over the years numerous answers have been given to it. The books alone which have been written around this query fill many feet of library shelf. It has been the theme of countless magazine articles, newspaper stories, pamphlets, and sermons. In the early days of Mormonism these writings and discourses were motivated largely by a spirit of blind prejudice, for the question was most often asked in an atmosphere of ignorance and bigotry.

"Mormon" is a nickname for a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Just as converts to the Church of Christ in the first century came to be called Christians, so in the nineteenth century those who professed belief in the Book of Mormon were called Mormons. The title has remained, and there has been little disposition to change it, although it is gradually giving way to the name, Latter-day Saint.
