It has taken modern science more than 3,500 years, and the genius of such men as Einstein to catch up with what Abraham and Moses knew so long ago. We can only ponder how many more wonders of God may be hidden in the astounding translations of Joseph Smith.In Joseph Smith and Modern Astronomy,Dr. Richard Ingebretsen, former science editor for the Ensign, a medical doctor, and a PhD scientist, confirms the truth of the writings and translations of Joseph Smith using advances in modern science and astrophysics.• Governing stars influence other celestial bodies (Abraham 3:2-4)• The "times" of heavenly bodies are not all the same (Abraham 3:3-4)• Absolute truths have been revealed in the translations of Joseph SmithThese fascinating parallels explained by Dr. Ingebretsen will not only broaden your scientific understanding, but they will also present a framework to comprehending other revelations.
Richard J. Ingebretsen obtained his Masters in biophysics in 1984, and his Ph.D. in physics education in 1988, both from the University of Utah. He obtained his M.D., in 1993 from the University of Utah School of Medicine. Dr. Ingebretsen is currently both a research professor in the Department of Physics and a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Medicine at the University of Utah. In addition, he is an emergency room physician and also has a private medical practice in Salt Lake City, Utah. In his "spare" time, he conducts medical research and volunteers for the Glen Canyon Institute, an environmental institute which he founded.As a member of the LDS faith and a scientist, Dr. Ingebretsen is concerned that many people mistakenly see science in conflict with religion. By carefully studying the scriptures from an informed scientific view, he has observed that modern science does not contradict the scriptures, but actually upholds the writings of Joseph Smith and accurately, conclusively, and scientifically demonstrates the absolute truth of such works as The Pearl of Great Price.
