The most notable change of doctrine about these people came about after the author of The Miracle of Forgiveness spent a day alone in the "Upper Room." These people's particular needs are addressed through a fraternal organization known as the Genesis Group. Offshoot movements such as the Strangites and Bickertonites often elevated these people to positions of leadership to differentiate themselves. In 1966, Bruce McConkie wrote that these people were "less valiant in the pre-existence." One of these people, Enoch Lewis, inspired a change in doctrine about them when he married Matilda Webster. They were the subject of Spencer Kimball's "Official Declaration--2", and according to a now-abandoned doctrine, they were created when Ham married Egyptus, who was a descendant of Cain.
