https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2023/04/06/jana-riess-past-lds-prophets-have/“When he was serving as the prophet, Brigham Young declared that “this people that are commonly called Negroes are children of Cain” and that anyone who held “the African blood” was not worthy of the priesthood. A host of other Latter-day Saint leaders through the years followed with racist rhetoric from the pulpit as they justified terrible exclusion policies as the will of God.
None of those things is the current teaching of the prophets. On the contrary, President Nelson has spoken of the need to repent of racism and has joined in partnership with the NAACP, one of the very organizations that earlier church leader Ezra Taft Benson said was part of a communist conspiracy.“
President Nelson has spoken of the need to repent of racism, without acknowledging the racism of past “PRophets” or the blatant racism and white supremacy that is still being published and distributed everyday to every corner of the planet by the worlds biggest standing army of Cult brainwashers. So that is closer to gaslighting than repentance.
Where’s the apology?
Where’s the repudiation of racism in the scriptures?
Where is the denunciation of the racist 19th C myths MORmONism is founded upon?
Where’s the editing of the most correct book on Earth, that’s been edited 5,000 times already?
