 Thoughts on Education and Religion

World renounced chemist - President Eyring's dad

Seek ye diligently, study by learning and also by faith.

If the Sprit has confirmed truth, follow that prompting.

Read the actual sources.

The gospel gives a higher purpose. Have book learning but pass everything by the gospel and He whom is the source of all truth.

Our region embraces what we learn in school.

In President Eyring's biography he writes that he felt the Holy Ghost testify of truth on a certain page in a book about thermal dynamics. God is the source of all truth. I think it's neat that he understood what the Holy Ghost felt like to recognize it in an unexpected location.

After life - university

Practice the gift of discernment and pray for it.

Look at people following the philosophies of men. By your fruits ye shall know them.

What sign to I want to give God? How I observe the Sabbath. How I treat His children. How I honor temple covenants
