Unlike other un-churched denominations in Great Britain, Mormons did not experience growing acceptance during the pre-World War I years. This article explores the religious intolerance shown Mormons during the period. 'It will be argued that although the crusade found considerable popular support, especially in northern England, much of the impetus for this movement came from churchmen and other conservative elements who felt threatened by the 'acids of modernity' that were eroding Victorian values.' (p. 70) The campaign resulted in reduced levels of converts and the creation of a licentious image that would long endure.
