Hi, Rrhain.

You are aware that the Mormon church held this belief up until about the 1970s. You were not allowed to be black and Mormon.
Bull crap: black people could be Mormons since the beginning of the LDS Church. Joseph Smith baptized several black people (Elijah Abel is the only name I can think of). They weren't allowed the priesthood and several ordinances until 1978, but they could be Mormons.
I have heard that the LDS Church was the first church in the USA to allow black ministers in front of white congregations, but I can't substantiate it.
