President Young's 1856 speech calls our attention to a tendency in his thinking to find discussion about evil compatible with cosmological speculation. Young's cosmology includes his teachings about eternal and dynamic matter; a universe filled with an incalculable number of exalted human beings; the potential for his followers to craft worlds of their own; and the teaching that the biblical Adam was the God who created this earth. This article engages these particular teachings and asks why Young went to such theological extremes in his discourses. [From the article]
