D&C 132

So I showed this to my dh last night or Sunday night rather. He was amazed that after the church supposedly rejected polygamy it was still in our scriptures. He is a nevermo and was under the impression that since it is no longer taught(supposedly) that is would no longer be in our books. WRONG!!!!!
I was also talking to him about being white and delightsome!! He is pretty dark skinned so I told him he must have been a bad bad boy in the pre-existence. Yah, I also told him our church used to teach that he was black because of the curse of cain and because he wasn't Valiant enough in the pre-existance. This is a man who I used to hope and pray he would be baptized one day. Well, I think that probably won't ever happen. He is cursing the day he ever even stepped foot in a mormon chapel. He used to be supportive of me taking our daughters to church! Yah, well I pretty much ruined that too. Not only does he know that they will never be treated as anything more than future wives and mothers and not given any real power in the church but now he knows that there are people who probably still believe all that nonsense and will use it to be racist towards our daughters.
Am I sorry I told him all of this? Not right now. If I ever decide to become a full-fledged mormon again, I might regret it. I seriously doubt that will happen. I just felt he needed to know why I all of a sudden(well it wasn't so sudden, it has actually taken a year) don't want to go to church and why I am seriously considering finding another church to go to. He is very supportive of me and my faith-finding mission. I am lucky, a lot of people's spouses aren't so supportive. I guess it really paid off not marrying a mormon!! I knew he came into my life for a reason!!
