I would guess that many "real people" turn away from a church they don't believe in after any number of catalysts strike, including hurt feelings.

But I'm not sure how that relates to the Curse of Cain.

Real people do not leave the Church cause someone stepped on their toes or they get their feelings hurt.

I found it interesting. What really caught my attention was when the author said his Bishop had taken his temple recomend away for a year as punishment. Not because of some sin but because someone higher than the Stake President had insisted upon it.

And the truth shall set you free.

The article explains LDS beliefs very well during the 70’s and 80’s.

For those of you interested in this topic, you might find the article: THE MARK OF THE CURSE Lingering Racism in Mormon Doctrine an interesting read. I'd be interested to know what you think of it?

I watched the trailer for the film about the black girls from New York that attended EFY 3 years ago. It made me wonder if going to EFY was the right thing for them or if EFY was really for white kids from Utah.

You’re asking whether you were wrong about whether you’ve changed your views? Only you know that.

Was I wrong on the last posting?

I have decided to change my views regarding blacks. I believe the Prophet was right and they are God’s children. Anything written above this are no longer my views regarding blacks and the church.

I have a friend who belongs to a different faith (when we speak about religion, I call him a JW).

He told me one time that they believe the Blacks are the chosen race and whites are cursed ones.

I do not know if this is a general thing with them or just his understanding of the religion.

No, I am not saying you sound angry, it’s just you sounded a lot like him in that comment (just his way of speaking, or writing I should say). :) Sorry, making a little joke. I hope it wasn’t offensice, I didn’t mean it in a negative way.

That’s ok, I don’t mind explaining what I meant, it’s good too because I get to think more about what I mean and how to phrase it.
