He didn’t believe the earth was 6000 years old.Even if you believe that your Gentry gentry was a more prominent scientist then Eyring, or that you and Gentry are more faithful Latter-day Saints Than Eyring, a dubious assumption perhaps, why only accept opinions of Gentry rather than considering the possibility Eyring could have been right, especially in view of the fact that many general authorities don’t accept your interpretation and the church has no official stand on this issue?
