As a teenager I attended a Sunday school class where the pastor's wife told us that all the Old Testament crap about Jewish people not marrying outside their religion meant that white people shouldn't marry black people. The same woman said that because you don't see different species of birds mating there shouldn't be interracial marriage.
My brother told me I was an atheist because I over analyze everything. I took that as a backhanded compliment
Mormonism has a PILE of absolutely astonishing racial crappola in their history, all made 'inert' by executive fiat when the church leadership wanted to expand the flock outside of the US.
Blacks are doubly cursed, as descendents of Cain and the unfortunate incident with Ham and Noah. In fact, if I understand the befuddled LDS stuff correctly (no mean feat, it's as confusing as all their other crap) blacks are actually cursed in the pre-life, somehow, before they are even born. It goes one stepped beyond being conceived in Original Sin apparently.
The 'revelation' negating the LDS racial shit also is completely different in it's implementation and form from all their other revelations too, this one has never been published in their standard "Thus saith the Lord _____" format.
Not sure why, maybe for a hasty repudiation at some point if the need arises ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
