In my last post I described how Mormon Scripture explains the origin of black people. (They are the seed of Cain.)
Which is all very interesting. But if you are foolish enough to accept that racist explanation, you still have a problem. How did the seed of Cain survive Noah's flood?
Well, lucky for you, my racist friend, Mormon Scripture has the answer!
You've probably seen the pictures of Noah's family. They look a lot like this.
A nice, happy, white family. But if they were all white, where'd all the black people come from?
And that's where the Book of Abraham comes in.
Unless you're a Mormon, you've probably never heard of the Book of Abraham. It's not in that little blue book that the Mormon missionaries gave you (and that you've never looked at since). And Mormons don't like to talk about it much because it's horribly embarrassing to them. But it's in the Pearl of Great Price and is, therefore, a part of Mormon Scripture.
In it we learn that Pharaoh was descended from the testicles of Ham.
Pharaoh ... was a descendant from the loins of Ham, and was ... of the blood of the Canaanites by birth ... thus the blood of the Canaanites was preserved in the land. Abraham 1:20-22
(Ham was the guy who saw his father, Noah, drunk and naked in Genesis 9:20-25. For this crime, God cursed the descendants of Canaan, Ham's son, with slavery.)
Abe also tells us that Egypt was discovered (while it was still under water from the flood) by one of Ham's daughters, Egyptus. (She was named after her mother, Ham's wife, who was also named Egyptus, and who was, apparently, a black woman.)
The land of Egypt being first discovered by a woman, who was the daughter of Ham, and the daughter of Egyptus which in the Chaldean signifies Egypt, which signifies that which is forbidden. When this woman discovered the land it was under water, who afterward settled her sons in it; and thus, from Ham, sprang that race which preserved the curse in the land. Abraham 1:23-24
So Pharaoh was the son of Egyptus, who was the daughter of Ham and his wife Egyptyus, from "that race which preserved the curse in the land."
According to Mormon Scripture, then, black people are doubly cursed: they are the seed of Cain and the seed of Ham. Cursed by God for Cain's murder of Abel and cursed again because Ham saw his father (Noah) drunk and naked.
God darkened their skin and made them slaves, but that wasn't the worst of it. He also excluded them from the Mormon priesthood.
Pharaoh, the eldest son of Egyptus, the daughter of Ham ... Noah ... cursed him as pertaining to the Priesthood ... Pharaoh being of that lineage by which he could not have the right of Priesthood. Abraham 1:26-27

You know, what is so sad is that there was a time when the majority of the white Americans who heard this thought that it made sense, even if Mormon teaching overall was a bit heretical.
Thank God we've gone far beyond that time. ;-)
First-person accounts! Must be true!
According to first-person accounts, after much discussion among the members of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles on this matter, they engaged the Lord in prayer. According to the writing of one of those present, Bruce R. McConkie of the Twelve: "It was during this prayer that the revelation came. The Spirit of the Lord rested upon us all; we felt something akin to what happened on the day of Pentecost and at the Kirtland Temple. From the midst of eternity, the voice of God, conveyed by the power of the Spirit, spoke to his prophet. The message was that the time had now come to offer the fullness of the everlasting gospel, including celestial marriage, and the priesthood, and the blessings of the temple, to all men, without reference to race or color, solely on the basis of personal worthiness. And we all heard the same voice, received the same message, and became personal witnesses that the word received was the mind and will and voice of the Lord."

Joseph Smith's 33 Secret Wives
By Joel B. Groat
Todd Compton, In Sacred Loneliness: The Plural Wives of Joseph Smith, (Signature Books, 1997) 788 pages, cloth, ISBN 1-56085-085-X.
Brigham Young was perhaps the most famous polygamist of the early Latter Day Saint movement, marrying a total of 55 wives, 54 of them after becoming a Latter Day Saint. He stated that upon being taught about plural marriage, "It was the first time in my life that I desired the grave." By the time of his death, Young had 57 children by 16 of his wives; 46 of his children reached adulthood.
First white skin mention in the Bible is Noah, before the flood, whose complexion frightened his father,Noah was an albino, but caused Lamech to question his wife as to whether she had bedded with a Nephilim/the only color curses in the Bible involved someone being turned white. and in Lev 13 blond hair is unclean..Moses and Paul referred to as Egyptians...then there's gen 25...Duet 28,Whoa! you guys are just plain stupid, I'm not going to educate you to hold a conversation at my level. you folks are regurgitating 19th century racial biases of your forefathers.Next barbecue outing throw that demonic moron book on the flame

LMAO! It's a good think you guys don't distort the facts!
Leviticus 13:30 is about a priest doing a MEDICAL EXAMINATION of a SKIN LESION. If there is a thin blond hair growing in the lesion, then he is to pronounce it leprosy (unclean). This has NOTHING to do with being a blond!!
