Will you renounce Paul for being a sexist? Will you renounce Peter for being racist, even after he was commanded to take the Gospel to all people, he still didn’t for a long time.

That comparison is twisted. How dare you try to paint Peter and Paul as racists in order to justify the vile things said by Brigham Young's about blacks.

Would you really like for me to post THIS ARTICLE on an OPEN THREAD?

If not, then please don't try to equate Paul and Peter with that False Prophet Brigham Young.

How can you not see the comparison? I didn’t say Paul was racist, I said he was sexist. Don’t twist my words. Peter and the rest of the 12 were commanded to take the gospel to all nations, but he didn’t and needed reminding from the Lord in a vision to get him to take it to the Gentiles. Even then, the other apostles, who had also been commanded to take the gospel to all nations, didn’t believe him. Do I consider these men racist? No. Do I think they were men first, yes. Do I think BY was a man first? Yes.
