Default Darron Smith

After listening to the John Dehlin's interview with Darron Smith, I'm now firmly in Adam and SU's camp--the Church should (and will, IMO) issue a formal apology to African-Americans for the priesthood exclusion rule and the racist statements of some of its leaders. It's more than a symbolic move. Black Saints should not have to bear the burden of defending our racist past because we refuse to publicly acknowledge our mistakes. We've done it (to a degree) on the Mountain Meadows Massacre; it's time to move on to the most serious stain on our history, IMO.
