brigham young quote: "our religion will not clash with or contradict the facts of science in any particular."

guess he didnt forsee that the lamanites were NOT the principal ancestors of the native americans?
or when joseph fielding smith prophesied that man would never reach the moon?

" ... [T]rue religion and true science bear the same witness, and that in the true and full sense, true science is part of true religion."

Bruce R. McConkie spouted that particular bit of meaninglessness.

When I was a child I was taught that science and archaeology would prove the Mormon church correct. We don't hear that anymore do we? I became an anthropologist/archaeologist to help prove the BoM. I studied central american archaeology and actually worked as an archaeologist in Palmyra. Gee, didn't find any evidence to support the BoM and gee no one has found evidence in central america either.
