The proposed merger of two Mormon towns that are adjacent to each other in northern Arizona has become quite acrimonious. Taylor, Arizona was founded in January 1878 by John Kartchner and 8-Mormon families who came from Utah. And, the neighboring town of Snowflake was founded in September of 1878 by William Flake's party, which also arrived in northern Arizona from Utah. Flake named his new town in honor of himself and the famous Mormon apostle Erastus Snow. But, today these two utopian Mormon communities find themselves fightng against one another in a war that pits Mormon against Mormon.

The REAL history behind the Mormon migration into Arizona is also quite interesting. The year 1878 happens to be 20-years after the end of the "Utah War", which ended in 1858 (and includes the infamous September 11, 1857 Mountain Meadows Massacre and Brigham Young's declaration of independence from the United States on September 15, 1857) and the Mormon religion's "1890 Manifesto", wherein the Mormon religion finally acquiesed to the US Government's demands to cease their practice of polygamy in the United States. As it turns out however, the "1890 Manifesto" was merely a sophisticated public relations ruse designed to persuade Congress that the Mormons of Utah were loyal and law abiding citizens of the United States so that Congress would grant Utah statehood. The soverigh Mormon nation of Deseret, which was founded by Young and his Mormons in July of 1847, also happened to included most of what today is Arizona. But, as the Mormon Kingdom of Zion continued to make war with the United States, the US Congress kept on divvying "Deseret" and distributing pieces to create new States filled with people loyal to the United States.



After the "Utah War" ended, the Mormon religion came under intense pressure by the United States Government to not only cease their Mormon theocratic form of Government in the Utah Territory, but to end the practice of polygamy and adopt the Judeo-Christian laws of America and cultural norms that dominated the American Union. The President of the Mormon Church during this difficult period of time was John Taylor, and Taylor had occasion to speak to his Mormon God in 1884, which led to Taylor's revelation that polygamy was to continue. Taylor's conversation with his Mormon God soon led to a prophecy, which was issued soon therafter and stated, "...polygamy will be kept alive in places that would be hidden and protected by God". Then, Taylor charged good and loyal polygamous Mormons of Utah, who refused to cease their practice of polygamy, with traveling to secret locations and propagating the Mormon religion's polygamous culture. And so, this is how the Flake and Kartchner parties REALLY ended up in Snowflake and Taylor in the first place. Additionally, it was because of Taylor's prophecy that polygamous Mormons from Utah began migrating out of Utah and spreading polygamy all over the western United States, Canada and Mexico as they settled in new lands. In fact, even though they don't admit it, Colonia Juarez in Sonora, Mexico  where Mitt Romney's father is from and where Orrin Hatch and Romney still have family is a polygamous Mormon community. Additionally, the polygmous town of Colorado City on the Arizona/Utah border was also founded during this same period of time. However, today the "mainstream Mormons" of Utah officially dissavows any association to these "polygamous Mormons".

But, back to the Mormon towns of Taylor and Snowflake in northern Arizona. The incredible intensity of today's feud left a trembling and feaful Fay Hatch of Taylor exclaiming, "We'll be like children of the second wife". Lets see, it's 2009 and you supposedly have "mainstream Mormons" who live in the same Mormon community as Jeff Flake (Mormon U.S. Congressman from Arizona) and Arizona Senator Sylvia Allen comparing the proposed town merger to the backwards and supposedly antiquated nature of Mormon polygamy. But, didn't the Mormons really end polygamy in 1890 with the "1890 Manifesto". But, wait just a minute. During former BYU Professor D. Michael Quinn's research on polygamy subsequent to the "1890 Manifesto", which ended up causing the great Mormon religion to excommunicate him in 1993 along with the rest of the "September 6" intellectuals and feminists who had the audacity to not be brainwashed by the cult, Quinn documented that the Mormon hierarchy had engaged in polygamous marriages all the way up to 1945. In fact, during the famous Reed Smoot hearings, a member of the Mormon religion's "Presidency" is quoted as saying, "...the "1890 Manifesto" was really just a trick to beat the Devil at his own game". Meaning that the Mormon religion never really had any intention of ending polygamy at all, and simply created the "1890 Manifesto" as a "public relations ploy" in order to more easily obtain statehood. Even though there are polygamous communities all over Utah, the Southwest, Canada and Mexico today, doesn't the hierarchy of the Mormon religion swear up and down they have nothing to do with polygamy and the only polygmists around today are those fetched FLDS Mormons. Hummmm, what's wrong with this picture, and does anything else really need to be said about the ridiculous and duplicitous natrure of the Mormon religion?

Jeff Flake isn't the only prominent Mormon citizen and politician from Snowflake. Recently, Arizona State Congresswoman Sylvia Allen explained during a legislative session that the earth was only 6,000- years old - Sylvia Allen: Earth is 6,000-years old. And, both of them are in proud company with another of Snowflake's prominent citizens, Travis Walton, who was famously abducted by space aliens in 1975 and became the subject of the 1993 movie, Fire in the Sky
