why? that just means they welcome blacks into their Church hierarchy.
Ah, but remember, there's splinter branches today who STILL don't accept blacks as Church leaders, like the FLDS. And way back in the 1840s, there's probably going to be a large group of members who don't agree with blacks having the priesthood.
So I assume there's going to be major racial tensions, perhaps even a minor split.
Jaredites, but they can't merge those, because according to the Book of Mormon, the Jaredites died out a few hundred years into the history of the Nephites.to merge the two branches of Native Americans? (Jews and i forget what the other group was believed to be called)
The second option actually seems the more realistic one; Kimball was the never complaining type, and might see the "refiners fire" as a good thing.then don't send the blacks there (or maybe the ATL Church is more "we suffer as Jesus suffered")
except if you put that cap on the population and send off all the young men, suddenly Utah looks far too hostile to be a viable long-term residence.
Hmm... Good point. Perhaps a push for more middle-aged missionaries would be sensible.
Hmm... Comache-Mormons. I like the sound of that. Perhaps the pro-Native American splinter group arms and aids them? Hmm...unless you get the Comanche (massive trade empire from Canada to Mexico) involved on the Mormon's side. not sure if this would play into or against the hands of the "we must marry all Native Americans" group.
Well, seeing as how the other leaders explicitly had the notion of "eewww plural marriage, wait this isn't this bad", apart from Samuel, I'm more willing to bet that he was quietly disturbed by polygamy.maybe he thought he didn't deserve more than one. (as opposed to being against plural marriage)
