After civil rights laws passed, they weren't allowed to uphold not allowing people of color into the church. Once that happened, Mormons had to backstep. However, anybody who knows the Book of Mormon will tell you that there is no alternate reading that makes them not racist. Mark of Cain has some leeway, Bible never specifies too much on that. Book of Mormon is very specific

they changed their mind about them being cursed descendants of cain iirc
In 1979.
i knew that, i just wasn't 100% sure how that applied here
it's a little known fact but Mr. Latter Day himself watched Family Guy religiously
actually everything he watched, he watched religiously
deleted by creator
Not Cain, Lamanites. And they didn't change their minds on that overall
They just want the optics, huh? Makes sense
