Young is generally considered to have instituted a church ban against conferring the priesthood on men of black African descent, who had generally been treated equally to white men in this respect under Smith's presidency.[133]: 54–65, 70 

After settling in Utah in 1848, Young announced the ban,[133] which also forbade blacks from participating in Mormon temple rites such as the endowment or sealings. On many occasions, Young taught that blacks were denied the priesthood because they were "the seed of Cain".[134] In 1863, Young stated: "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."[135] Young was also a vocal opponent of theories of human polygenesis, being a firm voice for stating that all humans were the product of one creation.[136]

Throughout his time as prophet, Young went to great lengths to deny the assumption that he was the author of the practice of priesthood denial to black men, asserting instead that the Lord was.

According to Young, the matter was beyond his personal control and was divinely determined rather than historically or personally as many assumed.[137]

Young taught that the day would come when black men would again have the priesthood, saying that after "all the other children of Adam have the privilege of receiving the Priesthood, and of coming into the kingdom of God, and of being redeemed from the four-quarters of the earth, and have received their resurrection from the dead, then it will be time enough to remove the curse from Cain and his posterity."[138]

These racial restrictions remained in place until 1978, when the policy was rescinded by church president Spencer W. Kimball,[139] and the church subsequently "disavow[ed] theories advanced in the past" to explain this ban,[140] essentially attributing the origins of the ban solely to Young.[141]

This one one of the most infuriating shows I've ever seen. That white bytch got everyone killed off of a lie and flat out stupidity. Karen's been Karen'in since the beginning of time. This felt like a bootleg Revenant with a kid and white woman. Taylor Kitsch sucks in everything.

Question, Pratt saw the mormon dude had his friend watch and knew he had something to do with it, makes sense. But why didnt Pratt but 2 + 2 together when the mormans put on the same dirty hoods that the ppl that attacked his camp/scalped him?

Also that wolves scene was dumb as hell. Why would the wolves bypass the easy food with the horses to attack the cabin? I guess they just needed the kids to do something like Isaac went to save Sara.

Other than that, good show. They definitely getting killed on their way to cali though.
