Your love for it is just oozing out everywhere, you know.

The fact is, I've given plenty of the quote to establish that Brigham Young is, in fact, addressing himself to what little is known about the attributes of deity. His doing so was recorded in the JD.
I really believe both of you would enjoy the paradoxes of People of Paradox, as it juxtaposes several of the competing philosophies extant in the early restored church.

The truth is, the early church entertained many perspectives, whereas the modern restored church seems more sanitized, more homogeneous and less diverse in presentation.
