8. Mormons love to tout how their faith is eternal and never changing

Young confirms this

This will always be so."
So while they may not say it out loud and while the mormons tout a newer revelation that permitted the descendents of Cain to no longer be servants and obtain the preisthood, semblance of racism hasn't dies off. NOT ONE subsequent prophet has provided a new prophets revelation that god has rescinded the requirement that a man must have many wives to enter into the kingdon of heaven. Not one has come out with a new prophecy that mixed race marriages are acceptable to God.

So two things, God's laws are not eternal and never changing, apparenty he changes his mind. Somethings are subject to change and somethings are not...apparently at the whim of whatever political and public pressures are placed on the LDS leadership.

Another interesting tid bit. Young seems to be stating that Adam is the same person as God. This Adam God theory has caused a lot of controversy and many modern day Mormons promoting that same doctrine have been reprimanded and some even excommunicated.
