Racist BoM Mess-Up

Posted in Book of Mormon, Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , on 03/01/2026| 1 Comment »

Jude 4 “For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.”

March 1 — Today we have a couple of thoughts about Joseph Smith’s BoM and the decision making of the LDS Church.

1.In 1981 the Church decided to change one word in one verse from 2nd Nephi. You’ll see it in the notes below.

It looked like a lame attempt to not come across as the racist organization they are.

2.Why would they change one word and ignore all the other racist verses?

We feel their behavior speaks for itself.

The verses listed below are a small example of the mess they’ve created.

Please pray for Mormons to see the problems in their scriptures. What Joe Smith wrote is definitely not from the Lord!

With Love in Christ —

Michelle ✟

Brigham Young: Blacks Should be Used Like Servants

Posted in February, Racism in the Mormon Church, Racist Remarks by Leaders in the Church, Witnessing Tip of the Day, tagged , , , on 02/09/2026| 3 Comments »

February 9 — Journal of Discourses 2:184 “The seed of Ham, which is the seed of Cain descending through Ham, will, according to the curse put upon him, serve his brethren, and be a “servant of servants” to his fellow-creatures, until God removes the curse…The conduct of the whites towards the slaves will…send both slave and master to hell…The blacks should be used like servants, and not like brutes, but they must serve. It is their privilege to live so as to enjoy many of the blessings which attend obedience to the first principles of the Gospel…” – Brigham Young, Salt Lake City, February 18, 1855 (more…)

The Problem with McConkie’s Talk

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, Racist Remarks by Leaders in the Church, tagged , , , on 01/21/2026| 3 Comments »

Dictionary.com defines the word fact as “something said to be true or supposed to have happened”.

 January 21 — All are Alike Unto God, August 18, 1978 “Forget everything that I have said, or what President Brigham Young or President George Q. Cannon or whomsoever has said in days past that is contrary to the present revelation. We spoke with a limited understanding and without the light and knowledge that now has come into the world.

We get our truth and our light line upon line and precept upon precept. We have now had added a new flood of intelligence and light on this particular subject, and it erases all the darkness and all the views and all the thoughts of the past. They don’t matter any more.

It doesn’t make a particle of difference what anybody ever said about the Negro matter before the first day of June of this year, 1978. It is a new day and a new arrangement, and the Lord has now given the revelation that sheds light out into the world on this subject.” — Bruce McConkie (more…)

Are Mormon Doctrines a Judgment of God or Man?

Posted in January, Racism in the Mormon Church, Witnessing Tip of the Day, tagged , , on 01/10/2026| 5 Comments »

 January 10 — That Ye May Not Be Deceived, pp. 9-10, 13 “…Also, the gospel was not carried to this segregated black group… the Negroes tread the earth with black dishonorable bodies as a judgment of God because at the time of decision in the pre-existence they were faint-hearted and exhibited an infirmity of purpose – they were not valiant in the cause of the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, they were entitled to no better earthly lineage than that of the first early murderer, Cain. They were to be the ‘servant of servants.’ They were to be segregated. No effort was made to carry the gospel to them as a people. …The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has no call to carry the Gospel to the Negro, and it does not do so.” – Elder Arthur M. Richardson, 1955 (more…)

Cavemen are Result of Sin

Posted in January, Mormon Dilemmas, Racism in the Mormon Church, Witnessing Tip of the Day, tagged , , on 01/06/2026| 5 Comments »

 January 6 — Moses: Man of Miracles, p. 8 “When did civilization start? It began with Adam, the first man, unusually well educated because the Lord was his teacher. (Moses 6.) It is admitted that there was retrogression among some of his family who apostatized and then left his well-ordered society…

Thus they became the cavemen and other early degenerates who some scholars now mistakenly believe were the first men. All of this differs but little from situations found among certain aborigines who live today in some parts of the world. (more…)

Disobedience Caused Lamanite’s Dark Skin

 March 11 — Disobedience Caused Lamanite’s Dark Skin. Answers to Gospel Questions, vol. 3, p. 122 “The dark skin was placed upon the Lamanites so that they could be distinguished from the Nephites and to keep the two peoples from mixing. The dark skin was the sign of the curse. The curse was the withdrawal of the Spirit of the Lord and the Lamanites becoming a “loathsome and filthy people, full of idleness and all manner of abominations.” (I Nephi 12:23.) The Lord commanded the Nephites not to intermarry with them, for if they did they would partake of the curse.” — Joseph Fielding Smith, 1953 (more…)

LDS Height of Racist Hypocrisy

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , , , on 02/25/2022| 3 Comments »

 “But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7

As far back as the days of the shepherd boy David God has told us not to look at outward appearances.

Some people got the Lord’s memo by applying it into their lives. Unfortunately, there are far too many that haven’t done so and today we’re looking at one huge example. (more…)

LDS: We Become Like God, Satan, or Something in Between

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , , on 11/17/2020| 1 Comment »

Mormonism and the Negro, p. 20 “We believe that God is our Creator, that He is an all-wise God, that He is concerned about the eternal welfare of all His Children, one as well as another. We believe that He is all-powerful, and controls in the destiny of mankind and all that pertains to it. We further believe in the concept of eternal progress: that as man is God once was, and as God is, man may become. (May become, not necessarily will become, for that would not make allowance for free agency. We may become like God, or we may become like Satan, or we may become something in between these two extremes.).” — John J. Stewart (more…)

LDS: Bible Shows ‘Racial Streams’, aka, Racism

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , , on 11/15/2020| 9 Comments »

The Church and the Negroid People, pp. 1-3 “The problem of the races is not new. The various races have been with us since written history began. … What the mark was that came upon Cain and which enabled others to distinguish him from the other children of Adam is not made clear.

The Bible does not mention if or how the curse and mark placed upon Cain survived the great flood. In the account of Noah and his sons there is a curse referred to as being placed on Canaan, son of Ham by his grandfather Noah. …

The Biblical account indicates a separation of the descendants of Canaan from the lands occupied by the descendants of Shem and Japheth.

The Biblical writers make little attempt to record the history of other than Israelite peoples and distinguish these as descendants of Shem. These we find very conscious of racial streams.

Thus, Abraham sends for a woman from among his own people at Haran as wife for his son Isaac. And Isaac’s son finds a wife in the same land. The Jews returning from Babylon after the captivity reestablished Jerusalem but purged out all who could not trace their genealogy to Israel. …” — William E. Berrett, Vice President of BYU [emp. added] (more…)

LDS Lies: ‘Negroes Markedly Inferior’

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , , , , on 02/16/2020| 3 Comments »

 Seventy’s Course in Theology [Salt Lake City: Deseret News, 1907-1912], 1:166 “…some may deny that the mongrelization of the Southern people would offend the race notion—would corrupt or degrade the Southern stock of humanity. If so, then such a one has yet to learn the largest-writ lessons of history and the most impressive doctrines of biological science.

That the negro is markedly inferior to the Caucasian is proved both craniologically and by six thousand years of planet-wide experimentation; and that the commingling of inferior with superior must lower the higher is just as certain as that the half-sum of two and six is only four.” — B. H. Roberts (more…)

Racial Curse Now Just a Theory

Posted in Racism in the Mormon Church, tagged , , , on 01/27/2020| 2 Comments »

 Today we’re asking the question; Is the Church denouncing their beloved prophet?

“I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth…” —November 28, 1841

 Keep Smith’s words in mind as you read through the following info…

A report in the Salt Lake Trib last week is an example of how the Church tries to retro-engineer its own history. It also showed the endless egregious lies the Mormon Church encumbers itself with time and again.

The article referred to the Church’s latest problem as a ‘blunder’, with the ‘potential of setting back’ any progress made on the race issue. We’re not sure why anyone would think they’ve made progress, taking into account racist dogma is still couched in numerous places throughout their canon. (more…)

Black Woman Will Be White In Heaven

Wilford Woodruff, His Life and Labors, p 587; “There is one peculiar characteristic noticeable in the journal of Wilford Woodruff, it is that hopeful, joyful spirit that dwells with ever increasing satisfaction upon the things that are good and uplifting…He said in his journal of October, that year, that “Aunt Jane,” the colored sister, had been to see him. She was anxious to go through the Temple and receive the higher ordinances of the gospel.

President Woodruff blessed her for her constant, never changing devotion to the gospel, but explained to her her disadvantages as one of the descendants of Cain. In after years when President Joseph F. Smith preached the funeral sermon of this same faithful woman he declared that she would in the resurrection attain the longings of her soul and become a white and beautiful person.” – 1909
