(by Dennis B. Horne)
Today, and for some 50 years previous, the Church has used something called “correlation” or “correlation review” to evaluate and ensure the doctrinal correctness and accuracy of gospel teachings and instruction it produces. Correlation review has other purposes than this, but such is its main use. It has not always worked perfectly; it has had some annoying side-effects; in some cases it has dumbed-down the Church; but over-all it has been very helpful and necessary and its origins and continued use has been declared inspired by many of the Brethren. Before 1960s-1970s its purposes were the same but were called by other names, such as reading or publication committees. The below items and information will give the reader a feel for the creation of these processes and their internal church usages. First is the text of an official letter from the Heber J. Grant First Presidency appointing and explaining the duties of a new reading (correlation) committee. Those who don’t enjoy learning about such matters might skip to the next item, which is a definite and substantial quotation taken from a general conference address given by Elder Marion G. Romney. In this address he discusses his work and feelings as part of that reading/review committee as it pertains to the origin of man and the mission of Adam. (As far as I am concerned, Elder Romney spoke by pure inspiration.) Then excerpts from letters written by Elder Romney and by Elder Harold B. Lee are given, in support of and explaining some reaction from President McKay to his conference message refuting evolution. These powerful teachings won’t persuade biology teachers of evolution, who know more than the Lord, but they do represent the position and feelings of the leading Quorums of the Church—which is all that matters.
Elders Joseph Fielding Smith, John A.
Widtsoe, Harold B. Lee, and Marion G. Romney.
Dear Brethren:
As
you are aware, the Council of the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve
approved, by a formal action, the setting up of a committee on Publications as
proposed by the First Presidency. You Brethren were named and approved to
constitute that Committee.
The
function of this Committee is to pass upon and approve all materials, other
than those that are purely secular, to be used by our Church Priesthood,
Educational, Auxiliary, and Missionary organizations in their work of
instructing members of the Church in the principles of the Gospel and in
leading others to a knowledge of the truth. No non-secular materials will be
used by any of these organizations that do not receive the approval of your
committee. This assignment will cover reference books prescribed or placed at
the disposal of our youth by any of the organizations named, as also books used
in reading courses.
To
meet the required standards for use by Church organizations, such materials
must:
1. Clearly set forth or be fully
consistent with the principles of the Restored Gospel.
2. Be wholly free from any taint of
sectarianism and also of all theories and conclusions destructive of faith in
the simple truths of the Restored Gospel, and especially be free from the
teachings of the so-called "higher criticism." Worldly knowledge and
speculation have their place; but they must yield to revealed truth.
3. Be so framed and written as
affirmatively to breed faith and not to raise doubts. "Rationalizing"
may be most destructive of faith. That the Finite cannot fully explain the
Infinite casts no doubt upon the Infinite. Truth, not error, must be stressed.
4. Be so built in form and substance as
to lead to definite conclusions that accord with the principles of the Restored
Gospel, which conclusions must be expressed and not left to possible deduction
by the students. When truth is involved there is no place for student
preference or choice. Youth must be taught that truth cannot be blinked or put
aside; it must be accepted.
5. Be filled with a spirit of deepest
reverence. They should give no place for the slightest levity. They should be
so written that those who teach from them will so understand.
6. Be so organized and written that the
matter may be effectively taught by men and women untrained in teaching and
without the background equipment given by such fields of learning as
psychology, pedagogy, philosophy, and ethics. The great bulk of our teachers
are in this untrained group.
Courses
on "comparative religion" have no place otherwise than in the
Post-Graduate School to be established at the Brigham Young University and
there only for the purpose of developing and demonstrating the truth of the
Restored Gospel and the falsity of the other religions of the world, and
thereby build the faith and knowledge of post-graduate scholars. The subject is
one for careful, prayerful study by the mature mind, not for the framing of the
thought and belief of the youthful mind.
The
work of all these Church organizations must have as their purpose the building
up of firm testimonies in the minds and hearts of the Saints, particularly of
the youth,—testimonies of the truth of the Restored Gospel, of the Messiahship
of our Lord Jesus Christ, of the divinity of the mission of the Prophet Joseph
Smith, of the divine origin of this Church established by God and His Son by
and through the Prophet, and of the fact that this is and always will be the
Church of Jesus Christ with all that this connotes,—all to the end that the
Saints may have and enjoy these testimonies, that they may live in keeping with
the commandments of the Lord, that they may constantly increase their knowledge
of the Truth, thus enabling them so to live that salvation, exaltation, and
eternal happiness in the Celestial Kingdom may come to them, and lastly that
they in turn may lead others of the world to a knowledge and testimony of the
Truth both by their precept and by their example, so bringing to them these
same blessings.
No
assignments for the preparation of text books or lessons for use by any of the
named organizations shall be made without prior consultation with and approval
by your Committee. All texts written and lessons prepared are to bear the name
of those who write or prepare them. All such materials must have your approval
before they are used by any of the organizations of the Church.
In
the preparation of all these materials prime consideration should be given, by
those undertaking it, to our own Church history and doctrinal literature. In
the rather recent past these sources have been too little considered. Sectarian
views and doctrines have had too large a place and consideration; the
paganistic theories and tenets of the so-called “higher criticism” have not
been without their influence; none of these have a place in our Church. They
should be wholly eliminated from our literature.
The
leaders of the Church have from the beginning been men of stalwart spiritual
integrity, righteous in their living, virile in their thinking, profound in
their knowledge of the Gospel, and with undoubting faith. They have left
sermons and writings which in good part are original sources and should be so
dealt with. In recent years they have been too little consulted and too
infrequently used. Not mere sectarian scholarship, but Church scholarship
coupled with unwavering faith and a deep knowledge of the Gospel should be the
test of fitness for the preparation of the materials involved in this
assignment. As we have already said: worldly knowledge has its place, but it
may not be substituted for revealed truth, nor the inspired utterances of God's
prophets. Ethics and philosophy are found in the Gospel, but it is far more
than these; whenever either or both of these are used, they must be used with
great care and caution, and for the sole purpose of indicating that human
wisdom, when sound, supports the divine Gospel truths. All secular knowledge
used should be so set forth as to support the Gospel truths.
The
discussion of mysteries and of doctrines upon which there is not a recognized
accepted view, should be avoided. The aim should be to present the simple
truths of the Restored Gospel in as plain and understandable a way as possible.
Care should be taken that the Gospel teachings are not cast in an ethical mold.
Ethics are man-made and vary with man's concepts and development; the Gospel is
God's truth and is unchanging through the eternities. Teaching the Gospel as if
it were an ethical code will breed questions in the minds of the youth as to
the relationship of the Gospel to ethics, to the possible destruction of faith
in the divinity of the Gospel.
We
are naming a Reading Committee to assist you brethren in your labors. This
Committee will operate under your direction. It is contemplated that the
Reading Committee will, in the first instance, read all the materials covered
by this assignment and then bring to you Brethren of the Committee on
Publications their recommendations thereon. It will be the duty and
responsibility of your Committee finally to pass upon and approve or disapprove
all such materials….
In
making this assignment to you Brethren of the Committee on Publications and of
the Reading Committee, we wish to assure you that in our view the work you are
now called to do is of the very first importance to the Church membership as a
whole, and to the youth of the Church particularly. The assignment is given
with the intention that no other Church work shall take precedence over it,
that you will begin your labors at once, and will prosecute them with vigor and
constancy, having an eye single to the glory of God and to the upbuilding of
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on this earth, and to the
salvation and exaltation of God's children in the Celestial Kingdom.
Praying
that the blessings of the Lord may attend you in the carrying on of this
important work to which you have been called, and that constantly His spirit
will be with you to inspire your minds and give you wisdom in your labors, we
are Faithfully your brethren,
HEBER J. GRANT, J.
REUBEN CLARK, JR., DAVID O. MCKAY, First Presidency.
President Marion G. Romney (April
1953 general conference):
I would
like to say just a word about my testimony of the mission of Jesus Christ. I
want to go a little farther back for a moment, if I can be given guidance by
the Spirit of the Lord to speak the truth accurately, and mention the great
condition precedent to the efficacy of the mission of Jesus Christ. That
condition precedent is the mission of Father Adam, because without the mission
of Adam there would have been no need for the mission—the atonement—of Jesus
Christ.
I have an
assignment from the First Presidency to serve on the Church publications
committee. This committee is expected to read and pass upon the literature
proposed for use in the study courses of our auxiliary organizations. It would
please me immensely if, in the preparation of this literature, we could get
away from using the language of those who do not believe in the mission of
Adam. I have reference to words and phrases such as "primitive man,"
"prehistoric man," "before men learned to write," and the
like. We sometimes use these terms in a way that offends my feelings; in a way
which indicates to me that we get mixed up in our understanding of the mission
of Adam. The connotation of these terms, as used by unbelievers, is out of
harmony with our understanding of the mission of Adam.
"Adam
fell that man might be." (2 Nephi 2:25.) There were no pre-Adamic men in
the line of Adam. The Lord said that Adam was the first man. (Moses 1:34, 3:7;
D. & C. 84:16.) It is hard for me to get the idea of a man ahead of Adam,
before the first man. The Lord also said that Adam was the first flesh (Moses
3:7) which, as I understand it, means the first mortal on the earth. I
understand from a statement in the book of Moses, which was made by Enoch, that
there was no death in the world before Adam. (Moses 6:48; see also 2 Nephi
2:22.) Enoch said: . . . death hath come upon our fathers; nevertheless we know
them, and cannot deny, and even the first of all we know, even Adam.
For a book
of remembrance we have written among us, according to the pattern given by the
finger of God; and it is given in our own language. (Moses 6:45-46.)
I
understand from this that Enoch could read about Adam in a book which had been
written under the tutelage of Almighty God. Thus there were no prehistoric men
who could not write because men living in the days of Adam, who was the first
man, wrote.
I am not a
scientist. I do not profess to know anything but Jesus Christ, and him
crucified, and the principles of his gospel. If, however, there are some things
in the strata of the earth indicating there were men before Adam, they were not
the ancestors of Adam.
Adam was
the son of God. He was our elder brother, not older than Jesus but he was our
brother in the same sense that Jesus was our brother, and he "fell"
to earth life. He did not come up through an unbroken line of organic
evolution. There had to be a fall. "Adam fell that men might be." (2
Nephi 2:25.)
I will go
on now and read this scripture before I forget it:
For a book
of remembrance we have written among us, according to the pattern given by the
finger of God; and it is given in our own language.
And as
Enoch spake forth the words of God, the people trembled, and could not stand in
his presence. (Moses 6:46-47.)
Some men
speak of the ancients as being savages, as if they had no intelligence. I tell
you this man Enoch had intelligence, and Adam had intelligence, as much as any
man that ever lived since or that lives now. They were mighty sons of God.
And he said
unto them: Because that Adam fell, we are; and by his fall came death; and we
are made partakers of misery and woe. (Moses 6:48.)
If Adam and
Eve had not partaken of the forbidden fruit, they would have had no children,
and we would not have been. (2 Nephi 2:23-25; Moses 5:11.)
I do not
look upon Adam's action as a sin. I think it was a deliberate act of free
agency. He chose to do that which had to be done to further the purposes of
God. The consequences of his act made necessary the atonement of the Redeemer.
I must not
go into a longer discussion, but I say again that I would be very pleased if,
in our teaching of the gospel, we could keep revealed truth straight in our
minds and not get it confused with the ideas and theories of men, who do not
believe what the Lord has revealed with respect to the fall of Adam.
Now, I
believe with Enoch, " . . . Because that Adam fell, we are; and by his
fall came death;" (Moses 6:48) that every man must die, as Brother
Petersen said yesterday. I believe that to meet the demands of justice, it took
the atonement of Jesus Christ to redeem men from that death, that they may be
raised again and have their spirits and their bodies, which are separated
through death, reunited. I believe that through the atonement of Jesus Christ
whatever "transgression" Adam committed was paid for, and that as in
Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive, every living creature.
(1 Cor. 15:22; D. & C. 29:24, 77:2.) I believe, too, that through the
atonement of Jesus Christ my individual sins, your individual sins, and the
individual sins of every human being that ever lived or ever will live upon the
earth were atoned for, upon condition that we accept the gospel and live it to
the end of our lives.
I know that
my Redeemer lives. I shall not know it better when I stand before the bar of
God to be judged. I know that Jesus is the Redeemer. I bear that witness to
you, not from what people have told me; I bear it out of a knowledge revealed
to me by the Holy Spirit. (Conference Report, April 1953, 123-24.) (For those
wishing to actually hear the audio file of this address, go to: https://catalog.churchofjesuschrist.org/assets?id=9573212a-e844-4d2f-bd53-802dc2e5f695&crate=0&index=0 At about 17:14 mins. in is when Brother
Romney starts talking about Adam and the true doctrine of the origin of man.
Keep in mind that because this was extemporaneous it was also somewhat choppy
and disjointed and he read few scriptures, but all of that was cleared up, with
some scripture citations added, in the published conference report.)
After giving this Conference talk, Elder Romney shared
more of the story: “Following this Conference, on April 13, 1953, President
David O. McKay wrote me a letter in which he said: ‘I have heard many express
gratitude for your remarks, as well as for your fine spirit. I assure you I
have agreed heartily in every instance.’ I would assume that this statement of
President McKay’s did not repudiate what I had said about the origin of Adam.”
Elder Romney also wrote this illuminating and telling
summary of the united beliefs of his Quorum: “I don’t suppose that any two
minds in the world understand exactly alike any statement on any subject. The
General Authorities of the Church are, of course, like all other men, different
in their personalities. However, on the fundamentals they are in accord, and
one of those fundamentals upon which they are in accord is that Adam is a son
of God, that neither his spirit nor his body is a product of a biological
evolution which went on for millions of years on this earth.” And lastly, “If
you will study these documents [First Presidency statements on the origin of
man], I think you will be persuaded that they, with the written revelations
which the Lord has given, teach rather clearly that the physical bodies created
by God, not only for man but for the animals upon this earth, were created
after the likeness of the pre-existent spirits which were to inhabit them. I
think the scriptures are clear that animals, as well as man were endowed by the
Creator, in the day that they became mortal, with the power to bring forth
young after their own kind, and not after some other kind.”[1] These are informative and
meaningful comments about the collective, united doctrinal position of the
Quorum of the Twelve, from one who knew.
And there is yet more to the story. President Harold B.
Lee shared this information:
I
have a few moments to respond to your letter of recent date in which you
express some concern about some contradictory information as to the position we
should take with regard to the doctrine of evolution. This, as you know, has
been long a bone of contention so serious that in the earlier years when
Darwin’s theory first was enunciated, a number of professors at the Brigham
Young University were released because of their unwillingness to teach the
theory and then counter by delivering the true doctrines of the gospel.
Apparently
the thing that confused you was that these who have contended have shown you a
copy of a letter which was signed by President David O. McKay in which he
disavowed the church having taken any official position on the subject of
organic evolution. And, furthermore, that in that note to Professor William Lee
Stokes, he declared that the book, Man, His Origin and Destiny was not
published by the church and is not approved by the church.
There
is a little bit of history that I should tell you about. One summer some years
ago, I was assigned to deliver a day by day set of lessons to all the seminary
teachers and some of the institute teachers of the church, which proved to be a
very demanding assignment. I went down each morning and met with all of these
teachers. President Joseph Fielding Smith’s book had just come off the press
and I assigned, as a part of the course, the reading of this book and writing a
dissertation not less than 2500 words on the subject “What Your Appraisal Is of
the Value of This Book to a High School Senior or a College Student.” This
caused quite a consternation among the teachers, some of whom wanted to write a
very critical analysis of the book and were fearful of doing so lest I would
downgrade them in the course. This was not at all my intent, it was merely to
have them respond critically if they wished, and I so told President Smith that
I was inviting criticism and he said that was all right.
Some
of these brethren who were critical of the book came directly to President
McKay and represented to him that I had used President Joseph Fielding Smith’s
book as a text for my lectures at the BYU. He called President Ernest Wilkinson
in to express his criticism that I had done so, and President Wilkinson told
him that that was not true, that he, President Wilkinson, had sat in on most of
the lectures that I had given and I did not use the book as a text, it was
merely an assigned reading outside of the lessons.
It
was undoubtedly the undue pressure of some of these dissidents, one of which
was his own son, who was a professor at the University of Utah, that induced
him to write this brief and to them a satisfying but to you a disturbing note,
which poured water over their wheel and tended to lessen the influence of
President Joseph Fielding Smith’s book.
When
your letter came to our attention, President Marion G. Romney told me of a
conference address which he had delivered at the April conference in 1953,
where he spoke directly to this subject of the fall of Adam, or the fall of
man, as it is spoken of, and then brought forth scriptures to support the
position of the church with respect to the advent of man upon the earth, etc.
At
the conclusion of his talk, President Romney said that President David O. McKay
had congratulated him and had written a brief note, a copy of which I am
attaching hereto, in which he congratulated President Romney and then said, “I
congratulate you for your excellent contribution during the conference and
express gratitude for your remarks as well as your fine spirit, and I assure
you that I agreed heartily in every instance.” President Romney thought if you
had this statement from President David O. McKay, signed by himself, to counter
this other statement which has been so confusing, that that should be
sufficient for you to understand that President McKay had made this other
statement probably because of a compromising position he had been in due to the
circumstances as I have explained them.
I
might add one further thought. Just after this book of President Joseph
Fielding Smith’s was printed, I had a young student of science from the
University of Utah who came from a family who lived in my stake, come in with
several books and wanted to argue against statements made in President Joseph
Fielding Smith’s book. I said to him, “Now Brother ___.” (his name was Dr.
___.) “I haven’t had the opportunity of delving deeply into science, but I want
to tell you an experience that Mark E. Petersen and I had when we organized the
new Kansas City Stake. In our interview we had a man who was considered as a
bishop of one of the wards who was a teacher of anatomy in the Kansas City
University, which was a dental school. Of course this made it necessary for us
to examine very carefully his faith as contrasted with his teaching of the
evolutionary theory which of course would be taught in connection with the
subject of anatomy. After we had discussed this, I asked him if he had read
Brother Smith’s book. He smiled and said, ‘Yes, I have, and it was the most
difficult book I have ever read.’ ‘But,’ he said, ‘I want to tell you that in
my opinion this is the finest book that the church has ever produced for men
who were teachers in the field of science. And I endorse what President Smith
has said entirely.’ ”
I
said to this young Dr. ____, “I wish you would write to this professor of
science, who is much older and more experienced than you, in Kansas City, and
have him respond to your questions.”
A
few weeks later this young man came back in a humble spirit and said, “Well I
need nothing more to quiet my concerns, when a man of his experience can say
what he said, that’s enough for me.” “Now if I were you, Brother ____, I would
not be discouraged. This is a contention which has gone on and will continue to
the end of time I suppose, and until the scientists get nearer and nearer to
the doctrines of the Church, there will still be contention, but remember this,
that truth can never be composed with the errors of men. Just know that the
gospel is true and that these are the theories of men which you as a student
must learn if you want to pass the courses you are taking.
With
kindest personal regards and trusting this letter will be sufficient to set the
matter right in your mind I am,
Very
sincerely yours, Harold B. Lee.
Further teachings by President Romney on the origin of man:
Satan, our
enemy, is making an all-out assault upon righteousness. His well-marshaled
forces are legion. Our children and youth are the targets of his main thrust.
They are everywhere subjected to wicked and vicious propaganda. Every place
they turn, they are buffeted with evil, cunningly devised to deceive and to
destroy every sacred thing and every righteous principle.
Faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ is scoffed at. God, they are told, is dead. The principle
of repentance, baptism by immersion for the remission of sins, and laying on of
hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost are ridiculed.
Morality in
general and chastity particularly are outmoded. Man—so our children are told—is
an animal, the product of biological evolution; his generative powers are not
sacred and God-given for the purpose of bringing God's spirit children into
mortality, and therefore to be exercised within the limits divinely prescribed,
as the gospel teaches, but they are playthings to be exploited and prostituted
for the gratification of sensual and lustful desires. Courage, honesty,
loyalty, patriotism, law and order—these and other elements of the divine
nature are no longer revered as virtues.
If our
children are to be sufficiently strengthened to stand against this satanic
onslaught, they must be taught and trained in the home, as the Lord has
directed. (Conference Report, April 1969, 110.)
***
To Adam,
the first man, God revealed himself as the Father of man. And he has renewed
that revelation in every dispensation since.
In the
Garden of Eden, both before and after the Fall, God walked and conversed with
Adam, who was his son, even as one man walks and talks with another. After Adam
was driven from the Garden, he was visited and taught the truth of these things
by holy beings from the presence of God.
And Adam
and Eve . . . made all things known unto their sons and their daughters.
And Satan came among them, saying: I am also a son of
God. [Moses 5:12–13]
This claim by Satan that he was “also a son of God” is proof
that he knew Adam had instructed his children and that they knew that they were
sons and daughters of God. While admitting that he and Adam’s children were the
sons of God, he commanded them not to believe what Adam and Eve had taught
them, “and they believed it not, and they loved Satan more than God. And men
began from that time forth to be carnal, sensual, and devilish. Doing so is
their own responsibility, however; it is not God’s because under his direction the
Gospel began to be preached, from the beginning, being declared by holy angels
sent forth from the presence of God, and by his own voice, and by the gift of
the Holy Ghost.
. . . And a [divine] decree [was] sent
forth, that it should be in the world, until the end there of. [Moses
5:58–59]
And thus it has been, and thus it will
continue to be.

The truth I
desire to emphasize today is that we mortals are in very deed the literal
offspring of God. If men understood, believed, and accepted this truth and
lived by it, our sick and dying society would be reformed and redeemed, and men
would have peace here and now and eternal joy in the hereafter.
Members of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints accept this concept as a basic
doctrine of their theology. The lives of those who have given it thought enough
to realize its implications are controlled by it; it gives meaning and
direction to all their thoughts and deeds. This is so because they know that it
is the universal law of nature in the plant, animal, and human worlds for
reproducing offspring to reach in final maturity the likeness of their parents.
They reason
that the same law is in force with respect to the offspring of God. Their
objective is, therefore, to someday be like their heavenly parents.
They not
only so reason; they know they may so become because God has revealed the fact
that it is his work and glory to bring to pass their eternal life (Moses 1:39),
which is the life God lives.
Adam, the
first man, knew that he was a son of God. He walked and talked with him in the
Garden of Eden before the fall. After the fall, “Adam and Eve, his wife, called
upon the name of the Lord, and they heard the voice of the Lord from the way
toward the Garden of Eden, speaking unto them. …” (Moses 5:4–5.). . .
The theory
that man is other than the offspring of God has been, and, so long as it is
accepted and acted upon, will continue to be, a major factor in blocking man’s
spiritual growth and in corrupting his morals.
That it
would be so was clearly predictable. In the mind of its devotee, any such
theory as Pope’s doubt as to whether “to deem himself a God or Beast” is
resolved in favor of being a beast; and his doubt as to whether to prefer “his mind
or body,” in favor of his body.
The concept
that man is a beast relieves him of a sense of accountability and encourages
him to adopt the fatalistic attitude of “eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow
we die.”. . .
The truth
is, my beloved brethren and sisters, man is a child of God—a God in embryo. . . . That man is a child of God is the most important knowledge
available to mortals. Such knowledge is beyond the ken of the uninspired mind.
Neither logic, science, philosophy, nor any other field of worldly learning has
ever been, or ever will be, able to find it out. Those who limit their search
to such learning techniques will continue to be as they have always been, “Ever
learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (2 Tim. 3:7.)
The only
means by which such knowledge can be had is divine revelation. Fortunately for
us, as has already been shown, it has been so revealed repeatedly from Adam
until today.
The
aspirations, desires, and motivations of one who accepts, believes, and by the
power of the Holy Spirit obtains a witness to the truth that he is a begotten
son or daughter unto God differs from the aspirations of him who believes
otherwise, as the growing vine differs from the severed branch.

I can see
no justification for us, who have the clear light of the revealed gospel of
Christ, to spend our lives stumbling around through the mists following the
uncertain glimmer of a flickering candle lighted by the wisdom of men. Rather,
we should devote our energies to spreading the true light, and leave the mists
to those who do not see that light.
