These quotes are self-explanatory. Fielding's mendacity continues to amaze.

Joseph Fielding Smith, The Way to Perfection, pp. 101-102
"Not only was Cain called upon to suffer, but because of his wickedness he became the father of an inferior race. A curse was placed upon him and that curse has been continued through his lineage and must do so while time endures."

Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, Vol. 4, p. 169
"The Latter-day Saints, so commonly called 'Mormons,' have no animosity towards the Negro. Neither have they described him as belonging to an 'inferior race.'"

You are wrong. Joseph Fielding loved black people. He even said publicly 'darkies are nice people'.

And don't forget to mark JFS's famous quote on pg 110 of Way to Perfection, "This doctrine did not originate with President Brigham Young but was taught by the Prophet Joseph Smith." Then he quotes George Q. Cannon saying the prophet (Joseph) taught it. Guess TSSC essay writers forgot to look at this when they "disavowed" that teaching by everyone but Joseph.

If he denied that the "negro" was the inferior race, then which race was he calling inferior? Did he ever say?

"Racism is an offense against God and a tool in the
devil’s hands."

“How grateful I am that The Church of Jesus Christ ofLatter-day Saints has from its beginnings stood
strongly against racism in any of its malignant
manifestations.”

‘No More Strangers’, Ensign, Sept 2000,
p16 ; Alexander B. Morrison, Quorum Of The Seventy.

In the temple video Lucifer tells Adam and Eve, while looking at us, that there would be those who would teach the precepts of men mingled with scripture.

You dare ask questions? Eastasia and Eurasia both have Asia in them and start with E, so they're the same thing. THAT's what we meant by Eurasia beforehand.
