 §11. "Latter-Day Pamphlets". I. Carlyle. Vol. 13. The Victorian Age, Part One. The Cambridge History of English and American Literature: An Encyclopedia in Eighteen Volumes. 1907–21
Looking back on the storm that Latterday Pamphlets called forth, one cannot help thinking that this book was, in some way, a reflex of the great political upheaval of 1848, from which England had emerged much less scathed than the nations of the continent.
Seven years later, in 1850, Carlyle again essayed the rôle of political critic and prophet, namely in his Latter-Day Pamphlets.
Possibly, he overshot the mark, although the Pamphlets contain little that he had not already said—in point of fact, Carlyle’s political creed turns round a very few cardinal ideas which are repeated again and again in different keys throughout his writings.

 Thomas Carlyle
However, after the revolutions of 1848, and political agitations in Britain Carlyle published a collection of essays entitled "Latter Day Pamphlets" in which he attacked democracy as an absurd social ideal, while equally condemning hereditary aristocratic leadership.
All these books were influential in their day, especially on writers such as Charles Dickens and John Ruskin.
The latter was deadening, the former nonsensical: as though truth could be discovered by totting up votes.

In these days, what of _lordship_ or leadership is still to be done, the youth must do it, not the mature or aged man; the mature man, hardened into sceptical egoism, knows no monition but that of his own frigid cautious, avarices, mean timidities; and can lead no-whither towards an object that even seems noble.
Days of endless calamity, disruption, dislocation, confusion worse confounded: if they are not days of endless hope too, then they are days of utter despair.
One day, I do know, this, as is the doom of all nonsense, will be drummed out of the world, with due placard stuck on its back, and the populace flinging dead cats at it: but whether soon or not, is by no means so certain.

 Thomas Carlyle (1850)  Latter Day Pamphlets - No. 5 Stump-Orator
To-day in St. Stephen's, where constitutional, philanthropical, and other great things lie in the mortar-kit; even as on the Plain of Shinar long ago, where a certain Tower, likewise of a very philanthropic nature, indeed one of the desirablest towers I ever heard of, was to be built,--but couldn't!
And for that latter requisite the Priest also trained himself by apprenticeship, by actual attempt to practise, by manifold long-continued trial, of a devout and painful nature, such as his superiors prescribed to him.
Chaos and Gehenna are broken loose; the Devil with his Bedlams must be flung in chains again, and the Last of the Days is about to dawn!" Such is Literature to the reflective soul at this moment.

At Kirtland, in the days of their infancy, when the labors which they performed were very arduous in comparison with the labors the Latter-day Saints have to perform to-day in the building of these temples, they built another temple.
So the Latter-day Saints to-day would be of all men the most miserable if they did not recognize this principle of preaching to spirits in prison and baptism for the dead.
The Latter-day Saints, then, feel to congratulate themselves upon this point-that they have built their faith upon a rock which cannot be destroyed, and that will exist not only through the ages of time, but throughout all the endless ages of eternity.

 Latter Day Lepers
According to Salt Lake City attorney David Hardy, a former bishop of the LDS, the language of the 20 to 30-year-old pamphlets "engenders fear and loathing" toward gay youth.
Provo, Utah resident Gary and Milie Watts told reporters that the sentiments were incongruent with recent church statements about tolerance, and that "these pamphlets...
In one publication, former LDS Church President Spencer Kimball declares that "it were better that such a man (a homosexual) were never born." Another tract places homosexuality as a perversion on par with rape and incest, while "To The One" describes it as "unnatural," "abnormal" and "an affliction.":

 A Reply to Ed Decker's To Moroni With Love
Had Abraham lived in the days of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, he would have found it necessary to deny that Sarah, or Hagar, or Keturah, was his wife in order not to be persecuted again.
Acts 1:3 indicates that during the 40 Day Ministry of Jesus, he taught his disciples those "things pertaining to the kingdom of God." Anyone who has studied the Apocryphal New Testament writings knows that Jesus taught his disciples sacred truths that they were forbidden to teach openly during this time period.
Jesus cautioned those of the last days to beware of false prophets, yet with this caution is the implication that there would be true prophets.

 Intro to Pamphlets
This series of pamphlets was written by direction of the Lord for the specific purpose of warning Israel and gathering the elect in these last days.
The truths which are presented in these pamphlets may be hard for some readers to accept, even though they are plain and forthright.
The promised setting in order of His House has begun and it is His desire for this message to be published to His people who have ears to hear.

 Carlyle, Thomas. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
One of the most important social critics of his day, Carlyle influenced many men of the younger generation, among them Matthew Arnold and John Ruskin.
His style, one of the most tortuous yet effective in English literature, was a compound of biblical phrases, colloquialisms, Teutonic twists, and his own coinings, arranged in unexpected sequences.
In 1866 his wife died, and the loss saddened the rest of his life.

 CARLYLE, Thomas., Prophecy for 1855. Selected from Carlyle's 'Latter-Day Pamphlets,' 1850. By Thomas Ballantyne.
First edition of this rare pamphlet of selections from Carlyle's Latter-Day Pamphlets, intended to highlight the inadequacies of the government of the time and the folly of the Crimean War, by showing how much more applicable Carlyle's condemnations of governmental administration were to become five years after their publication in 1850.

 Thomas Caryle (1850)  Latter Day Pamphlets - No. 3 Downing Street
Such sordid populations, which were long blind to Heaven's light, are getting themselves burnt up rapidly, in these days, by street-insurrection and Hell-fire;--as is indeed inevitable, my esteemed M'Croudy!
A fact long prepared beforehand; which, if it is a peaceably received one, must have been acquiesced in, judged to be "best," by the poor mousing owls, intent only to have a large balance at their banker's and keep a whole skin.
The work being what we see, a stupid subaltern will do as well as a gifted one; the essential point is, that he be a quiet one, and do not bother me who have the driving of him.

 Walker, Whittaker, and Allen/Mormon History. Chapter 1
This history was published in serial form (minus the last chapters) in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' John Whitmer, "Church History," ed.
Heman C. Smith, Journal of History 1 (January-July, 1908); and more recently in F. Mark McKiernan and Roger D. Launius, eds., An Early Latter Day Saint History: The Book of John Whitmer Kept by Commandment (Independence, Mo.: Herald Publishing House, 1980).
To this day, it retains value for details normally excluded from more pietistic accounts of the Mormon "Kingdom on the Mississippi," although its lack of balance and clear animosity requires that it be read with caution.

 Chapter 5. Political Types -- Thomas Carlyle
For Carlyle of The Latter-Day Pamphlets, the fact that Englishmen subscribed to build a statue of the Railway King means, in essence, that they have fallen away from God (or whatever it is that he defines as God).
In this Latter-Day Pamphlet he follows his usual satiric procedure and takes a contemporary phenomenon as an emblem of the nation's mind and soul.
The second great lesson according to Carlyle is that such a Hudson's statue would inform his contemporaries of the true nature of universal suffrage, which is the particular target of this Latter-Day Pamphlet.

 Gospel Link
The views of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its members toward Jews and Judaism have been shaped chiefly by LDS teachings and by historical contacts with Jewish communities.
This latter volume constitutes a collection of essays on the subject.
These teachings include regarding the Jews as an ancient covenant people with a prophesied role in the contemporary gathering of Israel and in events of the last days, and the contacts include educational activities in Israel and LDS proselytizing efforts outside of Israel.

Pointing to the latter, He said "this is my beloved Son, hear Him" He then asked in regard to the various religions with which he was surrounded.
But as it was in the days of our Savior, so it was it in the advent of this new dispensation.
As such, it also provides a good argument for why their books, lectures, pamphlets, cassette tapes, Web sites, tabloids, broadcasts, seminars should not be taken at face value.

Soon he was caught in the rhythm of his own running, forgetting anything about his own body, just part of the living forest, moving onward, faster and stronger, not eating, not drinking.

We are far removed from the days of our forefathers who were persecuted for their peculiar beliefs.
The person responsible for the LDS pamphlet was sloppy and the quote should never have been constructed.

 Walker, Whittaker, and Allen/Mormon History. Appendix B
From the day the church was organized, Latter-day Saints were commanded to keep records (see Doctrine and Covenants 21: 1, April 6, 1830), and various individuals were assigned to collect historical material relating to the institutional history of the church.
The Ohio period of Mormonism (1831-38) is detailed in Stanley B. Kimball, "Sources on the History of the Mormons in Ohio, 1830-1838," BYU Studies 11 (Summer 1971): 524-40; and Roger D. Launius, "The Latter Day Saints in Ohio: Writing the History of Mormonism's Middle Period," John Whitmer Historical Association Journal 16 (1996): 31-57.

He said it helps clear up misunderstandings about Latter day Saints, who started in 1830 after prophet Joseph Smith received a revelation of a new Scripture, the Book of Mormon.

Early church practice in the 1800s included polygamy, and pioneer prophet Brigham Young had more than 20 wives, though polygamy is now grounds for excommunication from the faith.

 A "Tangled Web": The Walter Martin Miasma - FARMS Review
Although Latter day Saints tend to neglect or ignore Martin's work, I still believe that it is a mistake to underestimate his impact on a vocal segment of recent American Protestantism.
Even a less-informed Latter day Saint would have noticed that he lacked a basic understanding of the history and beliefs of the Saints.
The current leadership of the SBC seems to have found in Martin's ideology a useful�even necessary�justification for obstinately excluding Latter day Saints and the restored gospel of Jesus Christ from their own self serving definition of what constitutes a Christian.

The latter was written by Mark Haddon (both writers live in England).
It doesn't quite cross the line, I still recommend the book, but as my parents used to say about anti-Mormon pamphlets at the Hill Cumorah Pageant, "I could write better stuff than this."
It is a very clever book with one of the funniest lines I've read in YA literature: at the beginning of Chapter 2, "Anthony can't believe I've got this far without mentioning European Monetary Union." It has a writing style similiar to that used in The Curious Incident of the Dog In the Night-Time.

 Do Latter-day Saints Belong to a Cult? Issues of the Trinity, the Bible, Jesus Christ, God, and Modern Christianity
While it may offend critics to be told that the organization and apostolic priesthood authority that Christ gave His original Church has been restored in these latter days, their rejection of the concept of apostles and prophets is most surprising.
Some day, I hope we will be able to establish such a unified community of saints as described in Acts 2, but at the moment Latter-day Saints are still not quite "cultish" enough!
Peter for a few seconds walked on the water, and the day will come when there will be a remade universe, infinitely obedient to the will of glorified and obedient men, when we can do all things, when we shall be those gods that we are described as being in Scripture.
