Shakers Shake More!! Mormons Believe In The Book of Mormon Published In 1830 ByJoesph Smith, They Believe That A Prophet Named Mormon Wrote A Book Of Scripture Called The Book Of Mormon. Mormons Are Mainly From The USA. The Shakers originated in England, Manchester in 1747 in the home of Jane and James Wardley. They developed from the religious group called the shakers which developed in the 17th century. Both groups believed that everybody could find God within him or herself, rather than through clergy or rituals, but the Shakers tended to be more emotional and demonstrative in their worship. Shakers also believed that their lives should be dedicated to pursuing perfection and continuously confessing their sins and attempting to stop sinning.

Why were Mormon's more persecuted than the shakers?

This could be due to several reasons.First, the Shakers were more insular and kept to themselves, while Mormons have a very extensive evangelism effort and proliferate into their communities. Since Mormons were out and about, people had a higher chance of being annoyed by them.Second, the Shakers were, for the most part, a smaller group. The Mormons are ever-expanding. People felt more threatened by the Mormons and in some cases were worried that Mormons would take over their cities and towns. There were more Mormons, so there were more to persecute.Third, the Shakers have died out, but Mormonism lives on. Nobody persecutes Shakers anymore because they don't exist, but Mormons are still persecuted by many to this day.
