Class 10/29

In response to the Pope announcing his belief of how the big bang theory brought everything into existence, I would turn to a general conference address in 2012 by Apostle Elder Nelson to refute this claim. In speaking on the wonders of the human body, Nelson said the following:“Yet some people erroneously think that these marvelous physical attributes happened by chance or resulted from a big bang somewhere.”  He then goes on to speak of how ridiculous this way of thinking is by saying “Ask yourself, “Could an explosion in a printing shop produce a dictionary?” The likelihood is most remote. But if so, it could never heal its own torn pages or reproduce its own newer editions!” 

As we know, the plain and precious truth of the gospel always makes perfect sense, such that even a child can comprehend.  What sounds more plausible to you; that a big bang set in motion the events that led to our creation or that it was done by a glorified human being?
