pt 1, The Charge of Racism in The Book of Mormon

[SEEDOFABRAHAM]

What a lie and play on words...They are trying to clean up a pig.

Due to this curse of color until 1978 the Mormon priesthood was for whites only, which essentially includes all the churchs male members.

[hebrewmatrix]

you white people are really racist and hateful

[hebrewmatrix]

24 ¶ Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burneth have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white; 25 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the hair in the bright spot be turned white, and it be in sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out of athe burning: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.

[hebrewmatrix]

Numbers 12:10

10 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam became aleprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.

I believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God as far as it is plagiarized correctly.

[jesussavesbygrace]

He forgot to quote 2 Nephi 5:21 "And he had caused the cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity. For behold, they had hardened their hearts against him, that they had become like unto a flint; wherefore, as they were white, and exceedingly fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them." Check out Alma 3:6 and 1 Nephi 12:23. Mormonism is racist and a non-christian cult.

Maybe you should read the bible if you want to talk about racism, it's the most racist book available, and was udes by the protestants to justify slavery in the 1700-1800's

Maybe you should check all the parts of this video series before making conclusions, since the book of mormon teaches how racial hate will be brought upon the racist and those with black skin will be whiter in front of God than those persecuting the blacks.

Give me a verse from the bible that promotes racism. Please.

[RESTOREDAPOLOGETICS]

boz.: Leviticus 25:44-46; Exodus 21:7-8; 23:12; Galatians 4:28-31; Philemon 15-19; 1 Corinthians 7; 1 Timothy 6:1; 1 Peter 2:18; Colossians 3:22.

[Jarkko1983]

@bozie09 Give me a verse from the bible that promotes racism. Please.

ok. Mark 7:24-29 and Matthew 15:21-28, at the end jesus made exeption with this individual only.

Titus 1:12-13, Exodus chapter 21, leviticus 25:44-46. Destruction of jericho could be called according to modern standards as racist genocide because of different religion. New testament also shows that some christians were slave owners and some of the slaves were christians under a christian see philemon and 1 timothy 6:1-2.

[Tones91]

A wonderful rebuttal :D

[22EBola22]

@Tones91 Wonderful?!?!

So. Does that mean that because racism is found in the Bible that it absolves the "one and only TRUE church on the face of the whole earth" of ANY culpability??
