I’m with you. If LDS teaches it’s the “mark of Cain” to have dark skin, that’s news to me. I know a little of Mormonism but not that.

What I heard growing up was that it’s the “curse of Ham’s son, Canaan”, who was cursed because of Ham’s sin in regard to his father Noah, to have dark skin. Not that it was true, but that quite a few people actually believed it.

Both - the Cain mark and the Ham curse causing dark skin - are ridiculous.

Right, the bible don,t say anything about the mark being a color that i know of, but i have heard that since i was a small child and it was not from the Mormons.
