The Church Formerly Known As Mormon says it's not okay to be white

This is not news -- it's a press release from 2017, in response to whatever "racist" thing the media was outraged about at the time -- but it was recently brought to my attention in connection with my post "Racism is a fake sin." Strident condemnation of this fake sin is of course only to be expected from modern churches, but note how much further the Formerly Mormon Church has gone:

It has been called to our attention that there are some among the various pro-white and white supremacy communities who assert that the Church is neutral toward or in support of their views. Nothing could be further from the truth. In the New Testament, Jesus said: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" (Matthew 22:37–39). The Book of Mormon teaches "all are alike unto God" (2 Nephi 26:33).

White supremacist attitudes are morally wrong and sinful, and we condemn them. Church members who promote or pursue a "white culture" or white supremacy agenda are not in harmony with the teachings of the Church.

White supremacy is defined by Cambridge Dictionary as the quasi-mythical "belief that people with pale skin are better than people with darker skin," and it is pretty universally agreed that that would be a foolish and perhaps (depending on what exactly is meant by "better") morally objectionable thing to believe.

Note the phrases I have bolded, though. The Church is not only condemning "white supremacy" but also anyone who is pro-white -- which simply means "supporting or approving of white people." The Church makes no secret of its "shared vision" with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but they strongly denounce the idea that they could even be so much as neutral when it comes to anything pro-white. They are pretty unambiguously staking out the position that it is morally wrong to support or approve of white people. And -- weirdly, given that the vast majority of Church leaders are themselves white and live in white communities -- they cite "love thy neighbor" in support of this stance!

They go on to say that those "who promote or pursue a 'white culture'" -- that would be any and all cultures with European roots -- "are not in harmony with the teachings of the Church." No other culture is similarly condemned, so we take it that the cultures of the various white peoples (historically roughly coterminous with Christendom) are uniquely wicked.

Etymologically, the opposite of suprême is infime, so I think we could call the Church's stated position here white infimacy -- as Cambridge might define it, "the belief that people with pale skin are worse than people with darker skin." Since Mormonism is itself a product of white people living in a white culture, I think this leads to something very like the Cretan Liar Paradox.

Imagine dragging yourself all the way out of a bottomless pit, only to spend your time on this planet putting together the sort of tepid, antichrist incoherence these people do.

@ ben

Ever considered the possibility that maybe this duality dimension (Earth )
IS THE BOTTOMLESS PIT?

@Wm - To my mind, this is just the latest example of an already-corrupt Christian church leadership, tip-toing its lay church members incrementally towards ever-more-total assimilation to the mainstream totalitarian left agenda.

The extent to which this anti-Christian subversion is conscious and explicit cannot easily be established, but the fact of it is obvious.

William,

IMO,
The singularity has always been the Final Frontier of our Opponents, especially
in America (Babylon ) aka The New Atlantis.

America was/is an Alchemical experiment. E. Pluribus Unum
Even though in 1664 when Anti-Miscegenation laws were enacted in America, miscegenation has always been part and parcel in the American experiment.
As we all know, race mixing is not new on this planet, including in Egypt and in mythological Atlantis.

What appears to many people as a sudden and drastic change in our Societal Landscape( from what we thought we knew and/or believed) was planned centuries ago especially for America.

We (Humanity ) are on the precipice of the Shifting of Ages from the Industrial (Iron) Age to the Silicon (Information) Age, The Fourth Industrial Revolution aka The Great Reset, and metaphysically from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius.

What's happening on the World Stage now, has nothing to do, whatsoever, with any one person (i.e. Head of State), or any one country or any one political party
or any one religious organization.

The Singularity agenda:

One Race (Biracial/Mixed Race)
One Gender (Androgyny)
One Culture (Globalism, Transhumanism via Artificial Intelligence) Note; A I is not new.
One Currency (QR codes, Blockchain, Digital Dollars)
One Religion (Luciferian)
One Global Government

What we (humanity collectively) now believe to be 'truth' is going to be unrecognizable in the not too distant future.
