"Shall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so."--Brigham Young JOD vol. 10, p. 109

* Horses? Elephants? Steel? Barley? Wheat? 7-day calendar?
* DNA? 95%+ Asiatic
