So, Brigham Young was the St. Paul of Mormonism? Very interesting.

Sort of; but I see the analogy a little differently. Joseph Smith was the thinker, the dreamer, the mystic of Mormonism, while Brigham Young was the doer, the hardnosed planner, the builder of Mormonism beyond Joseph Smith's death.

Think of the Biblical Joseph and Moses. Joseph Smith was Joseph, while Brigham was Moses.
Aaron and Moses, maybe?

Regardless, welcome to the forum.
