Laminite is racist in any language.

How so it is a name of a tribe see how much you know!
Hey! How you been?
So a Mormon friend upon meeting someone from Tonga said they were a Lamanite. I had no idea what that meant but looked it up and thought “Well, that’s offensive”.
You don’t find it offensive dark skinned people, with flat noses have been marked?
Why are people of those characteristics marked with the attributes of Cain who, by the way, killed Abel?
Does God really put people into groups in that manner?
Should we?
If so, then are they now lesser people by the mark?
HMMMmmm...
You might be able to convince the jury of your findings.
Why don't you show them the evidence for your conclusions?
Yer dog is whining to go out.
Any of you EXers wanna field THIS one?
Sigh...
No PICTURES?
Well it better than discussing ones "south of the border" and emailing photos!
You forgot to type FICTIOUS.
We know 'lesser' people by their LOGIC challenged characteristics.
To wit:
"If the CURSE has now been removed; why are there still folks with BLACK skin being born?"
Bloney belived what you want and continue to a tale bearer
Lamanite aka Laman is the tribe name like Nephite who is Laman brother Nephi their father is Lehi.
An account of Lehi and his wife Sariah, and his four sons, being called, (beginning at the eldest) Laman, Lemuel, Sam, and Nephi.
you know so much of Mormons yet it seems you never even read The Book of Mormon maybe just enough to be derogatory!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has had an official presence in Tonga for well over a century. In 1891, King Siaosi (George) Tupou was visited by the first Latter-day Saint missionaries to arrive on the shores of Tonga and gave them permission to preach. Property was purchased, a mission home and school were built and a boat was secured for travel between islands. Through the years the Church in Tonga slowly began to grow.
During World War II many Mormon servicemen were stationed near Tonga and attended the local worship services. After the war the Church experienced dramatic growth as many local members were called as missionaries.
The progress of the Church on the islands has been assisted through the establishment of schools. A school in Nieafu was opened by the Church in 1907, and another, the Makeke School, was opened in 1924. A new educational complex, the Liahona High School, was established in 1952; it has become one of the largest and most successful educational institutions in Tonga.
Members of the Church in Tonga value their association with people of other faiths and desire to be contributing members of their local communities. The Church has always recognized the importance of culture to the people of the Pacific Islands.
In August 1983 the Nuku’alofa temple was dedicated, a long-awaited and joyful event for Mormons in Tonga and the surrounding islands. The remodeled temple will continue to be a spiritual focal point for members of the Church in this Pacific region.
Tonga has the largest number of Mormons per capita of any nation in the world. The Nuku’alofa Tonga Temple will serve approximately 41,000 Church members throughout Tonga and the Line Islands of the Pacific Ocean.

Oh yeah, you are.
No kidding!?
That was very interesting. I would have never thought Tonga had a LDS missionary presence going back more than 100 years.
I know that at one time they were largely Methodist and I understand they are now largely LDS.
Thanks for the history.
I learn something everyday.
Have a good day.
I am taking care of my friend, today, who will be 101 in two weeks.
I’m not being a tale bearer. I’m telling you what that person and several others have said.
She smiled and told me Tongans were Lamanites, as were the American Indian, South American Indians and blacks.
And Yes, I did read the BoM. It is actually an interesting read but, of course, we have been hashing out the BoM for a few years here.
When I looked up Laminite I did find it offensive in the context that their physical features were the mark of Cain.
How that is not offensive to anyone I don’t know.
It objectifies people based on their skin color as ones who are less than others.
Heck, for a quick explanation and definition I just went to Wikipedia.
They say pretty much the same thing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamanite
Besides, Polynesians look nothing like American and South American Indians.
Dangit!
Why do you use such logic? /s
Great question!
If the curse has been removed....
I am going to use that one.
Devastating.
