""Mormonism the Islam of America"" is a book written by Bruce Kinney that explores the similarities between the Islamic faith and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the Mormon Church. The author delves into the history and teachings of both religions, highlighting the parallels in their beliefs and practices. Kinney argues that both religions have faced similar challenges in being accepted by mainstream society, and that their adherents share a strong sense of community and devotion to their respective faiths. The book also examines the controversies surrounding both religions, including polygamy and the treatment of women. Overall, ""Mormonism the Islam of America"" provides a thought-provoking analysis of two religions that are often misunderstood and misrepresented in the United States.1912. Illustrated. From the Editorial Committee: The title of this, the latest of the textbooks issued by the Council of Women for Home Missions, may need a word of explanation. It is generally acknowledged that Mormonism is similar to Mohammedanism in its endorsement of the practice of polygamy, and its ideas of heaven. Many other points of similarity between these systems have been noted by students, and the Book of Mormon has marked resemblance to the Koran. As all ancient religions have a modern equivalent, Mormonism can justly be claimed to be the modern form of Mohammedanism, and not incorrectly termed the Islam of America. Contents: History of the Mormons; The Sacred Books of the Mormons; Organization and Methods of the Mormon Church; Mormonism as a Religion; Mormonism as a Life; and Missions Among the Mormons.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
