https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orson_Scott_Card
>Card, who is a great-great-grandson of Brigham Young
>he was a student at Brigham Young University
>He served in Brazil as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church)
Etc
Many of his works reference evolution and other topics that contradict his faith
What gives?
