EDITOR JOURNAL: Will you kindly
give me space for the following state
ment:
In the course Ofa sermon recently
delivered In this city, in speaking OF
how much Christianity has done for
our civilization, remarked that I'VE
are Indebted to 1t Christianity for
all our universities and colleges; and
that open, avOwed Infdelity has
never founded 8 single Institution Of
learning which is in existence to-day
and especially to propagate the doc
trine OF No Bible, No God, No Here
after"
Quite a number who heard the
sermon said had made q mistake /;
that Girard College was founded
by Infidellty, and is to-day an nfidel
school.
As 1t is not my custom to make a
statement either in the pulpit or out
Of il that cannot prove, 1 herewith
subjOin the following information
from the President Of Girard Cnllege.
He ought to know what he Is talking
about.
l. Girard College Is not an infidel
College, but an unseetarian one.
>. The New Testament il the stan
dard Of morals. 1t is read by the
students.
3. Christian people compose the
board OF directors and the teachers
almost without exception.
4. Mr.. Girard did not exclude the
Bible, but only sectarian wire workers
as he thought.
Very truly,
w. s. PRIEST.
