Absolutely. But we get our religion from the prophets, not self-appointed teachers of doctrine not taught by the Church. Brigham Young was talking about history, geography, science, etc. I doubt if he would have approved the rise of personality cults within the Church. And I am not talking about Pratt. I know nothing of him. John W.
