Maybe it depends on beliefs and definitions. But here is much that we are taught, centrally. We certainly hear a lot about being kind to others, and also that we are not authorized to change God's commandments with respect to the nature and purpose of individual and family, now and in eternity. I believe one can search by topics, etc: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/general-conference?lang=...

and about:

families: http://lukecall.net/e-9223372036854587315.html

service to all others: http://lukecall.net/e-9223372036854587314.html

And generally: http://lukecall.net/e-9223372036854587122.html


But even these topics have a hard time introspecting the racist norms integrated. Consider: https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2020/01/18/error-printed-lds...

I have genuine hope for Mormons, that they can repatriate for their historical blunders and be the great, solid people they aspire to be. They really do tend to be great people, just a little to at-the-ready to do what their hierarchical leadership deigns -- and to me that sacrifice of moral compass was my fundamental wedge issue. Self-introspection is a difficult principle to learn regardless of one's background.


Thanks for your comments. Humans are imperfect, a work in progress. I'm not perfect, I will keep trying. God is perfect. I have learned He lives. I'm glad He is patient, while knowing everything.
