Short biography
Eyring was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Some believe that the only reason he did not receive the Nobel Prize was his religion.
He once said "Is there any conflict between science and religion? There is no conflict in the mind of God, but often there is conflict in the minds of men."
