[edit] Other Latter Day Saint groups ideas of Zion

I'm with the Restoration Branches ... the Community of Christ, Remnant Church, Temple Lot Church and others have views on Zion as well. Why is this article specifically about Mormons? --Nerd42 03:37, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

list any distinctions in usage and we'll adjust the article (and the title, too). Zion in Joseph's usage was common to us all, but probably has independently evolved since his time. The bottom paragraph deals with the Utah Saints and we could have paragraphs for each other offshoot as well. I'll make an adjustment to the topic sentence, but hold off on any other changes.

[edit] City of Zion

City of Zion currently redirects here. I plan to break it back into a separate article so that I can create an article about Independence, the eviction from Jackson County, and the current temple. This in turn would be part of a Mormon War template to trace the events in the 1830s and aftermath. Americasroof 16:39, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
