Polygamy In Joseph Smith's No Man Knows My History

Joseph Smith in No Man Knows My History supported the act of polygamy in early Mormonism that caused women to be labeled as merchandise by their ability to reproduce and household abilities. This act of polygamy was important to American religious history because it caused the government to create anti-polygamy laws to protect Mormon women. The founder of the Mormon church, Joseph Smith, experienced a powerful experience with God, he told Joseph to practice polygamy. God explained the reason for polygamy was to procreate and expand the numbers of holy people. Around 1840, Joseph Smith introduced polygamy to the Latter-Day Saints. He explained to the church about his encounter with God and how this practice can also prevent sins from adultery
This causes American religious history to embrace the male gender expectation to led successful religious. Mormonism was first discovered by a man, Joseph Smith. The first sign of masculinity in early Mormonism was God (a man) showed himself to Joseph Smith (a man) where he then proposed practices to Joseph to led him to create Mormonism. Women had no relation to the discovery of Mormonism which supports the theory of Mormonism being a masculine religion. Men in the early Mormon church were responsible for priesthood in the LDS church. In No Man Knows My History, Joseph Smith (a man) reached out to people of the LDS church to promote a new practice of polygamy to strength the men’s religious aroma. The men of the church would raise young boys into priesthood by supplying them with church camp and boy’s scouts. Women at this time could not be priests because it wasn’t scared in early Mormonism, however women were in charge to influence young boys into priesthood. In daily life, Mormon men would be responsible to work for their multiple wives while also establishing religion in the household to sustain their beliefs. Mormon men would also spend time in the LDS church away from home to experience a closer connection to God; for him to answer prayers and guide the men through the church and life. Mormon men played an influence on American religious history by the way they led masculinity in Christianity. Similar to Mormonism, Christian men also focused to raise young boys into holy Christian men to one day be pastors of the Christian churches. Christians as well bring men in to the church to spread Christianity and develop a closer relationship to God. Lastly, this led in masculinity in Christians from the Mormons caused the expansion of a new nation and urban growth into an even more Christian country in
