Some interesting quotes from Brigham Young:

"Suppose you found your brother in bed with your wife, and put a javelin through both of them. You would be justified, and they would atone for their sins, and be received into the Kingdom of God. I would at once do so, in such a case; and under the circumstances, I have no wife whom I love so well that I would not put a javelin through her heart, and I would do it with clean hands...There is not a man or woman, who violates the covenants made with their God, that will not be required to pay the debt. The blood of Christ will never wipe that out, your own blood must atone for it."
(Journal of Discourses, v.1, p.83)

"Shall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so."
(Journal of Discourses, v.10, p.110)

So he ripped off the old testament. Stone adulterers. He said use a spear.

This was in the early 1800’s. Louisiana had laws to enforce this exact thing 100 years later, in the mid 1900’s. They were still prosecuting mixed race couples in the south until the 1960’s.

I don’t agree with everything they believe, but I do know that today mormons are good people towards me. They are much better than most people I run into.

Do you keep the Book of Mormon in your house just in case this comes up? Weird.
