"Revenge, [Mormon] said, was the one thing God absolutely would not tolerate (Mormon 3:9-16). For once that starts, there is no ending. Mormon shows us the military power completely out of control, practicing the usual atrocities, requisitioning everything for themselves while 'many old women do faint by the way and die' (Moroni 9:16). (Prophetic Book of Mormon, p. 524)
