I have to ask why a YouTube video has a QR code in its corner?
The world is always full of the sound of waves..but who knows the heart of the sea, a hundred feet down? Who knows it's depth?

In Ireland, there was the Irish Republican Army that consisted of the Provisional IRA fighters and the Sinn Féin which was the political wing. Sinn Féin liked to point out that they were not responsible for the bombings.

The same thing is true with the LDS. There is the main corporate structure that is concerned with obtaining money and the religious wing which is not responsible for the bombings.

Hope that helps.

Here's another video and paper that has not gotten enough attention:

Will Bagley answers four questions about the Trek
1. Why Handcarts?
2. Why did they leave so late?
3. What does sex have to do with the handcarts?
4. What does booze, tobacco and steam engines have to do with the handcarts?

Video
Written Document

Quoting all of the following from Will's above linked document:

Who was to blame? BY said about John Taylor; "Young charged his most talented subordinate,

Apostle John Taylor, with “saving one and incurring three dollars expence”.

John Taylor, knowing who was really to blame (BY) replied; "You must have been misinformed—it is false in toto, and without any foundation or semblance in truth,”

Taylor responded vigorously.

“I am prepared to meet any man on this or any charge, at any
time or place. I have records of my acts which I am not afraid to have
scrutinized.”

Taylor cast the situation in its true light:

"The Hand-Cart system was to me, and to us all, a new operation. I considered
that the utmost care and prudence was necessary. I wanted if a
train started, to know that it would go through. I knew of the weakness
and infirmity of many women, children and aged persons that
were calculated to go, [but] I did not consider that a few dollars were
to be put in competition with the lives of human beings.
I believed it
better for a smaller company to go through safe, than for a larger one
to perish on the way."

last emphasis is mine.
