It sure does. And? Nowhere does that imply I believe black people are inferior in any way. |

If you didn't realize that signature was offensive, then why did you change it?

El Jefe asked me to. I guess a lot of overly PC people like you were complaining about it.

When you say "More members pending", what, exactly, are you implying?

Who was the poster that celebrated White Man's History? There weren't any racial overtones in that, now were there?

We have at least one account of a prophet pleading repeatedly with God on the matter and being rebuffed. We have multiple accounts of various peoples in the scriptures that were prevented from receiving Gospel blessings (Mosaic Jews from the Melchizedek Priesthood, Gentiles from being preached the Gospel) or were distinguished by God based on their skin color (Lamanites vs Nephites). We have also have the church doctrines that allows only men to receive the priesthood and also men being able to marry more than one woman. I'm saying that given all the above, any reasonably open minded person could not possibly definitively conclude that God didn't have His own reasons to not allow blacks the priesthood. If you think that stance is sufficient to characterize me as being a racist or defending racism, then I believe you're too close-minded on the subject and/or you're purposefully being intellectually disingenuous.
