Quote:Being white or black is not a matter of religion whatsoever.

 

Well at one point it was, for example the Mormon church preached "blacks" where dark skinned because they where stained by Satan, the literally couldn't enter a Mormon temple until they had been baptized by a Mormon church and turned "white" on the inside. They didn't even let black people into their temples into the 70's.

 

It's a crazy ridiculous absurd stupid belief they don't practice or even really acknowledge anymore but it was their mainstream doctrine for a while. It's why I maintain no matter the reason or absurdity, private individuals, organizations and businesses have to be given the ability to associate with whom they choose or we're taking equal access and putting it above everything else.
