Are you guys really getting this desperate?

I wonder when the Mormons will apologize for THEIR racist past?
Yes
It's also good to remember that while there were a great many southern Baptists fighting to keep their state sovereignty and way of life there were also a great many northern Baptists fighting to free men from the abomination of slavery and to keep the union together.
I have a question: if a group decides to make an apology for collective sins made before those making the apology were ever born does that same group get to take credit for the good things the group did prior to its current members being born?
Personally speaking it makes about as much sense to me for anyone living nowadays to apologize for U.S. slavery as it does for anyone living nowadays to take credit for the abolition of slavery.

Here, old man! Baptist churches in Alabama.

Race Relations
Early Baptist churches were almost always biracial in membership if not in function. By 1847, the state’s most influential association, the Alabama Association centered in Montgomery, had 3,573 members, 1,790 of them black. The state’s most influential church, Montgomery First Baptist, had 411 members, only 96 of them being white. Yet no African Americans served as pastor of such a church, although they were usually allowed to preach to black members and occasionally became so renowned that whites listened attentively as well.
Any thing like that in Mormondom?
