[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 927792, member: 17969"] Its easy to see why you would support a mormon candidate with a strong mormon faith for office of the presidency. But do you think all americans share that belief? Lets see, the mormon church has an extensive history of racism and exclusion of blacks. They supported slavery and mandated that NO BLACK shall ever turn on his master. The mormon church believes that the blackness of the skin is a curse from "god" and they shall never be considered equals. The church has said "The attitude of the Church with reference to the Negroes remains as it has always stood. It is not a matter of the declaration of a policy but of direct commandment from the Lord, on which is founded the doctrine of the Church from the days of its organization, to the effect that Negroes may become members of the Church but that they are not entitled to the Priesthood at the present time. The prophets of the Lord have made several statements as to the operation of the principle. President Brigham Young said: "Why are so many of the inhabitants of the earth cursed with a skin of blackness? It comes in consequence of their fathers rejecting the power of the holy priesthood, and the law of God. They will go down to death. And when all the rest of the children have received their blessings in the holy priesthood, then that curse will be removed from the seed of Cain, and they will then come up and possess the priesthood, and receive all the blessings which we now are entitled to." This is a sick religion and out of the mainstream. Its this kind of racial hatred that litters our country from state to state. Romney is no different. Until he disavows the teachings of the mormon church, he too can be considered a racist. Peace. [/QUOTE]
