Well, sure, Joe may have been less prejudiced in his ordinations of negroes, but his Book of Mormon is still a racist pile of doo. Lamanites getting dark skin in coordination with their wickedness. Lamanties popping back into whiteness in coordination with their righteousness. That's about as hateful a racist concept made even worse because it attempts to sanction it as god derived.

What you are saying is precisely why this issue got me riled up when I heard the news outlets reporting on this "anniversary" and then discussing it with my friends who are black and visited the Temple Square in Salt Lake City…"…truth be told I was told to the day I left that the 1977 change was all political and the doctrine about blacks really remained. Most people I know that live around me are racisist Mormons but will meet people of color with a smile and pretend."
Thank you for adding that emphasis to this discussion.

Please research articles by Park Romney – cousin to Mitt who was once a high priest in the mormon church, he says mormonism is a cult – pure and simple.
