Dec. 12th, 2013 10:20 pmMormons announce that the traditional Mormon objection to non-white people is based on racism, and that they will stop it at some unspecified point in the future, and they expect cookies.
Also:
In the past, the LDS Church has said history isn’t clear on why blacks were banned from its all-male priesthood for more than a century.
No, that's a lie. The LDS Church has been VERY clear on why non-white people are less-than-human: Because God said so, and Laman And Lemuel, and if non-white people had REALLY not been inherently sinful they would have been magically made white by Mormon Jesus, the way all repentent non-white people WERE made white.
The LDS Church have maintained, after being forced to abandon explicit white supremacy to maintain their tax-exempt status, that they "don't know" why God insisted that non-white people were not people, but that God ordained that as fact and then *changed his mind* when "the time was right" despite being omnipotently able to enforce "the time is right" at any time he chose.
