DAVID O. McKAY, PRESIDENT

Dear Brother Stokes:
Your letter of February 11, 1957, has been received.
On the subject of organic evolution the Church has officially taken no position. The book "Man, His Origin and Destiny" [by Joseph Fielding Smith] was not published by the Church, and is not approved by the Church
The book contains expressions of the author's views for which he alone is responsible.
Sincerely your brother,
[signed] David O. McKay
(President)
