But there is nothing that says that we will all be worshipped.

You know we throw around these ideas and make some really gross assumptions. In my opinion, Brigham Young was thinking out loud. Not all of our prophets speak prophetically every time they open their mouths. Even today our leaders produce books and sell them at popular book stores. But they are not part of the canon and do not have the church's endorsement. We must be very careful about this area and what we post here as official church doctrine.

Hemi....I am afraid what you have said falls in this catagory.
Just so I am clear - is to be worshiped a evil attribute of G-d and therefore we should not seek such a thing? Should we not seek after all that is good and righteous? For me - everything about G-d is good and should be sought - no exceptions - regardless of any spin by any man or anyone for that matter.
