Brigham seeks to "view everybody and everything as it is before God."
Brigham Young, "Evil Deeds and Evil Doers," Journal of Discourses, 26 vols. (Liverpool: George Q. Cannon, 1862), 9:157
I can tell all the world that we mean to sustain the Constitution of the United States and all righteous laws. We are not by any means treasoners, secessionists, or abolitionists. We are neither negro-drivers nor negro-worshippers. We belong to the family of heaven, and we intend to walk over every unrighteous and unholy principle, and view everybody and everything as it is before God, and put everything in its place.
