Why are science and religion often pitted against each other? Do the discoveries of science undermine Latter-day Saints' religious beliefs or inevitably cause honest inquirers to lose their faith? In Let's Talk About Science and Religion, scientists and BYU professors Jamie L. Jensen and Seth M. Bybee tackle these questions head-on and answer the latter with an empathetic no.

To imbue readers with the confidence that science and religion work together to data, and years of watching thousands of Latter-day Saint students navigate sometimes challenging scientific topics. The book first explores the nature of science and religion as two different but complimentary ways of knowing and then addresses several specific topics that are of concern to many religious individuals, including evolution, nature versus nature, and environmental stewardship.

Through the principles and examples in this book, Latter-day Saints can develop the skills and perspective necessary to navigate any issue that arises at the intersection of science and religion and, as Joseph Smith said, “to embrace all, and every item of truth.” Readers can thus better appreciate how both of these beautiful ways of knowing- both science and religion- can bless themselves, their families, and humanity.
