I’d highly encourage every church member to read Paul Reeves book, Let’s Talk About Race and Priesthood, sold at Deseret Book. This policy was so much more than a priesthood ban, it was a horrific display of racism and pure blood ideology that was truly alarming. It’s a shameful part of our past and a formal apology is due. The church can also stop blaming God for this ban and admit that it was a mistake of man from the start.

@@brettmajeske3525 You need to read Abraham chapter one again! It specifically states that pharaoh was banned from the priesthood due to him being of that "race," (from Canaan) which was denied it!!!

Why? If you know how to live you don't need people to tell you how to live. There are those that need to be reminded daily how to live. If you can't afford institutions by all means join a religion.
