Here's the 60 minutes segment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK0PxT5Vm4g

But, IIRC, the "full" interview w/Wallace in the mid/late 90's was less edited, and included the bit about the King Follett discourse, "As Man is, God once was; as God is, Man may someday become", followed by Hinckley's denial ("I don't know that we teach that") and an evasive statement about that being a little couplet.

(This video is still full of gems, though; not even caffeinated soda, the control the church has over it's members sexual lives, blacks and the priesthood, "little flecks of history".)

If anyone can point me to a video where Hinckley told Wallace "we don't teach that", it would be much appreciated.

Well, the text accompanying the video has the text I'm looking for, but the video has discussion about polygamy, not the nature of "God" and "Man". (Thanks for replying, though.)

I saw it live and know what you're talking about, but I cannot find it either.

Hinckley's comment that "I do not know that we teach that" was made to the print media in 2007. San Francisco Chronicle

Hinckley's comment " it (polygamy) is not doctrinal" was made to Larry King on Larry King Live Sept 8 1998.

Perhaps Hinckley's most sublime moment as a PR genius https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wALvdgurB4
