Response to A.D. Powell

As a long time member of the LDS Church, I am not impressed with the lack of facts in the post. The revelation was in 1978 (not the 1980’s) Also, the Church is one of the few who never segregated. Anybody could, however, receive full membership into the Church - including African Americans. African Americans could not hold the priesthood until 1978, which has nothing to do with the Church’s expansion. Why, then could blacks not hold the Priesthood? The answer is, I don’t know. The Priesthood does not belong to the Church, nor the Prophet, nor the members. It is the Lord’s Priesthood, in the Old Testament, even though there were 12 tribes of Israel, only the Levites held the authority. God created races, not racism.
