Evolution—Adam and Eve not Adam and Gene!

from Back Pew Bioethics—an LDS Bioethics Podcast · host Back Pew Bioethics

For our first episode we are going back, way back to the very first bioethical debate within the LDS Church, evolution. In this episode we will cover the history of First Presidency statements on evolution, the arguments that erupted between apostles on the subject, and how modern members of the Church view it. We will also discuss our own views on evolution and how faith and scientific facts can and should be reconciled. About the hosts:Brad, a PhD bioethicist and medical school professor and Calli, a PhD candidate in bioethics and genetics data analyst, explore the world of bioethics through the lens of LDS theology and faith. As life-long active members of the LDS Church, and some of the few bioethicists that are part of the faith, they hope to bridge the unique teachings and doctrines of the LDS Church with some of the most controversial topics of our time. The opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the presenters and do not represent the views of their employers or the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
