Religion Quote by Henry B. Eyring
““For me there has been no serious difficulty in reconciling the principles of true science with the principles of true religion, for both are concerned with the eternal verities of the universe. Believe everything scholars can strictly prove and suit yourself about the rest. Science has nothing to say one way or the other about whether there is a spirit…The evidence lies outside of our present scientific knowledge.””
