I disagree with criticism of faith and the insinuation that science corrects errors of faith. Moses inquired and received instruction from Jehovah to wash the bedding of the sick that are treated and to wash the hands of the caregivers. (See Leviticus 15 [http://scriptures.lds.org/lev/15/1-5,7,13].) Not until Florence Nightingale did this practice become standard for preventing infection. Also, Joseph Smith inquired and received instruction from God about healthy eating habits and so forth (see D&C 89 [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/dc/89]) well before any federal agency gave us the four food groups or the food pyramid. This revelation continues to be proven correct.
Men used their faith and received correct instruction dealing with real causes that science would eventually confirm, not correct.
