The era in question has been considered dark, because it’s been said that it was a period of time where people were unable to make any decisive advancements, in technology, literature, economy, or order.

He is in some ways more controversial than his brother Joseph--virtually villanized as a ruthless slave trader by the Mormons of Utah, he is

In order to grasp the madness lying within the Universe, the comprehension of the fundalmental cosmology, including emphasis on the Big Bang
