New perspectives about the ban.
One of the most striking and most debated topics in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has been the priesthood ban applied to black people, a wrong term which misleads one to believe in a racial discrimination which would have originated in the so-called racist theories of the 17th and 18th centuries.
The official position of the Church today is reported in the article Race and the Priesthood, in which no mistake is acknowledged. Church leaders only say that they do not know the reason for the ban.
The author refutes the accusations of racism. He explores the lineage criterion mentioned by Brigham Young through the Scriptures and ancient texts.
