The Mormons and their questions that should have been asked and their "what does it 'really' mean" nonsense.

http://www.ldsliving.com/What-Does-It-Really-Mean-to-Be-a-White-and-Delightsome-People/s/81621


What does it really mean to be a white and delightsome people?

It means being a racist.

God likes white above all other colors. Mormonism proves God doesn't like rainbows. God won't baptize rainbow children.

I think it's okay to have "white pride." Like having "black pride," or "Hispanic pride."

Biblical characters were anything but a white and delightsome people. They were Middle Eastern, not Caucasian.

How about human "pride?"
That would include everyone...

Whatever rocks yer boat.

Taking pride in who you are is what I was talking about.

I've never met a black person thus far who didn't have black pride.

It's nothing to be ashamed of, or need to defend.

Why should it be any different for any other race, creed, or ethnicity so long as their exercise of free speech doesn't violate others rights?

I don't think "white pride" means what you think it means.

The Book of Mormon can't claim to mean anything excep white supremacy.

It was written in English by a guy who only knew English. It means exactly what it sounds like.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_pride

"White pride is a motto primarily used by white separatist, white nationalist, neo-Nazi and white supremacist organizations in order to signal racist or racialist viewpoints.[3][4] It is also a slogan used by the prominent post-Ku Klux Klan group Stormfront and a term used to make racist/racialist viewpoints more palatable to the general public who may associate historical abuses with the terms "white nationalist", "neo-Nazi", and "white supremacist"."

That's the connotation you give, if you mean white supremacy.

That wasn't the connotation I meant when I said it's acceptable for a race to take pride in who they are.

Some things can't be reclaimed, like the swastika and maybe the N-word.

It means totally lacking in exotic appeal. Also mottled and sun-damaged skin and bad hair.

Its pretty obvious that if you are no longer following the Brethren then you should have become dark and loathsome. I bear you my solemn testimony that this is what the most correct book on earth teaches. I know this may seem very racist to the majority of 21st century Americans. But we got to remember that this is the keystone of the glorious gospel that we got through Joseph Smith. Thus anyone who assimilates themselves with the Church has to accept this for sure.

This explains my slowly deepening tan!

At this rate by June I'll be able to dunk a basketball!

I think I'll go out back and sing the blues for awhile.

Mormonism can't really dispute the fictional "lightening" of characters in The Book of Mormon.

Just go to any Mormon temple. You have to close yourself in the robes of their holy priesthood - a white one.

It means that in America in the early 1800s it was perfectly OK to be racist.

So true.

It is such an anachronism this light-skinned thing. From a Book of Mormon perspective it makes Hebrews from 600 B.C.E white.

My son went to Thailand with his Thai wife, and her dad insisted that my son wear a hat everywhere they went because he was so white and delightsome.

What a thoughtful FIL.

White and delightsome means you sunburn like heck!
