It was until everyone else in Missouri got so sick of them trying to marry teenage girls they literally rallied the state militia to force the Mormons out.
Then, in a complete coincidence, god changed his mind to the spot where Brigham young got tired of a sore ass in a mule cart and said “this salty desert is better than another week to the ocean”

What is it with “chosen people” religions literally choosing the shitiest places on earth to be their “new Eden”
It’s either, desert,desert, armpit of America, etc. like, has anyone looked at like Hawaii or Cabo and went, “damn this place is nice, this is almost like it could be the garden of Eden!” No they are like. “Look! Sand and bugs! Must be heaven!”

It’s because these aren’t actually “holy” places, they’re just places where they can hide their cults while avoiding law and taxes. Abusers have more power when they can isolate their victims.
