Do you really call this soooo cool?



The Racist God of Mormonism
Joseph Smith, the founder of the Mormon Church taught that the mark of Cain mentioned in Genesis 4:15 is black skin.

"In the evening debated with John C. Bennett and others to show that the Indians have greater cause to complain of the treatment of the whites, than the ******, or sons of Cain" (History of the Church, 4:501).

Second LDS President Brigham Young also taught that:

"Cain slew his brother. Cain might have been killed, and that would have put a termination to that line of human beings. This was not to be, and the Lord put a mark upon him, which is the flat nose and black skin" (Journal of Discourses, 7:290-291).

This 'curse' of black skin comes as a result of choices made as a spirit in the pre-existence.

"There is a reason why one man is born black and with other disadvantages, while another is born white with great advantages. The reason is that we once had an estate before we came here, and were obedient; more or less, to the laws that were given us there" (Joseph F. Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, 1:61).

As a result, "****** are not equal with other races where the result of certain spiritual blessings are concerned" (Bruce McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, 1958 ed., p. 477).

Prior to 1978, when "the Lord" changed His mind and decided to allow blacks to hold the priesthood, "One drop of ***** blood" in a persons veins was enough to "receive the curse" (Race Problems- As They Affect the Church, Address by Mark E. Peterson at the convention of Teachers of Religion on the College Level, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, August 27, 1954).

While the god of Mormonism "curses" people with black skin, and those "born white [live] with great advantages," the God of the Bible is not partial to skin color. The true God of the universe "is no respecter of persons" (Acts 10:34) and does not show favoritism.

"For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward." (Deuteronomy 10:17)

"For there is no respect of persons with God." (Romans 2:11)

Unlike the god of Mormonism, the God of the Bible is not racist. He has no pets. All are alike in his eyes, regardless of skin color, social stature or wealth. Those who believe in Him know that they are treated as equals with all members of the human race.

I watched a documentary here in the UK about a fundie mormon sect - and I think the way you spelled it has an "m" too many.
Unless of course you think its cool for a young girl to be "given" to a man old enough to be here Grandad because the twenty "wives" he has already are not enough.

They aren't cool. Back in 1857, they slaughtered over 100 non-Mormon men, women, and children.
