and it's even worse in LDS
Jesus Fucking Christ, book of mormon, doctrines and covenants, pearl of great price, many sermons from Brigham Young and LDS hierarchy up until the 70's, some of the most vile stuff I've encountered, and there is some massively weird justification too; in the pre life, some souls fuck up seriously enough to merit being given black skin when personated on earth (and that means everything except white skin) and that is just the start. Worst howler was Brigham Young asserting every single 'white' soul would be saved (and remember, this is Mormon salvation, so it's a double dose of what the fuck) before any 'black' soul would be.
And in my opinion, it was particularly odious when the LDS poobahs discontinued the racial crap and essentially asserted that they were never 'racist', they were just following orders from God, and by dint of their repeated prayers they had prevailed upon God to ease up on the racial froth, and they were all too eager to follow the new rules just as soon as the new revelation was revealed.
What a stinking pile of bullshit.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
