Member sof the Church are admonished to acquire learning by study; also, by faith and prayer  and to seek after everything that is virtuous, lovely  or of good report , or praiseworthy.  In this seeking after truth, they are not confined to narrow limits of dogma, or creed, but are free to launch into the realm of the infinite for the know that 'truth is truth where'er it is found, whether on Christian or on heathen ground'

-David O. McKay (& the rise of morden mormonism pg 159)
