There you go again, FPRoy....Only telling part of the story.

Brigham Young who outranks you, taught that Adam was God....Here Apaostle Bruce R. McKonkie who also outranks you talks about it.

"...I am a great admirer of Brigham Young and a great believer in his doctrinal presentations .... He was a mighty prophet.... Nonetheless, as Joseph Smith so pointedly taught, a prophet is not always a prophet, only when he is acting as such. Prophets are men and they make mistakes. Sometimes they err in doctrine .... Sometimes a prophet gives personal views which are not endorsed and approved by the Lord. Yes, President Young did teach that Adam was the father of our spirits, and all the related things that the cultists ascribe to him. This [i.e., Brigham Young's teaching on Adam], however, is not true. He expressed views that are out of harmony with the gospel." (Letter by Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, dated Feb. 19, 1981, pages 5 and 6; photographically reproduced in LDS Apostle Confesses Brigham Young Taught Adam-God Doctrine)
