Now for your questions:
It is not acceptable to say BY and subsequent apostles were completely wrong.
This does not prove that apostles and prophets can lead the Church astray.
And it does not make any apostles racist.

Please give me explanations for your rationale. I don't quite follow. You have the prophet of the restoration, the originator for most doctrine of the church allowing blacks to be priesthood holders. His followers morph his teachings/example into a 'doctrine' that black people were less valiant in the pre-existence, they are sons of Cain and won't be forgiven until the next life, etc, how does this not constitute an 'apostacy' of ideals or doctrine?
