Verfasser: Sappho Datum: Freitag, den 17. Dezember 2010, um 21:50 Uhr Betrifft: Neue Veränderungen im Buch Mormon
Die Tribune berichtet:
The LDS Church has made subtle — but significant — changes to chapter headings in its online version of the faith’s signature scripture, The Book of Mormon, toning down some earlier racial allusions.
The words “skin of blackness†were removed from the introductory italicized summary in 2 Nephi, Chapter 5, in describing the “curse†God put on disbelieving Lamanites.
Deeper into the volume, in Mormon, Chapter 5, the heading changes from calling Lamanites “a dark, filthy, and loathsome people†to “because of their unbelief, the Lamanites will be scattered, and the Spirit will cease to strive with them.â€
In both cases, the text itself remains unchanged. Members of the Utah-based Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe founder Joseph Smith unearthed a set of gold plates from a hill in upstate New York in 1827 and translated the ancient text into English. The account, known as The Book of Mormon, first published in 1830, primarily tells the story of God’s dealings with two Israelite civilizations living in the New World. One derived from a single family who fled Jerusalem in 600 B.C. and eventually splintered into two groups, known as Nephites and Lamanites.
Since that initial printing, millions of copies have been distributed throughout the world in more than 160 languages.
Chapter summaries were added in the 1920s, then rewritten by the late LDS apostle Bruce R. McConkie in 1981. That same year, a verse that used “white and delightsome†to describe what will happen to dark-skinned peoples when they repent was changed to “pure and delightsome.â€usw.

Anders ausgedrückt: der mormonische Rassismus bleibt im Buch Mormon noch lange bestehen.
