Mans Place In This Eternity Of. Space
and Matter.
The solar system is but fragment
Of the universe. Every star IS a sun
with a solar system. 1t is possible that
there may be millions Of planets in

ourselves. What we see going on IS
what we call the process Of evolution
from broken fragments to coherent
masses and to inhabited worlds. from
.Saos to cosmos, a struggle upward OK

and disorganized to something higher
and organized.
As to how life originates on these
planets science is ignorant at present.
It is an entire mystery. would not
have you build too much on that. l
do not think it will always remain
mystery, nor would I have a theolo-
cian shaken in his views II science
should discover something about the
nature and origin Of life. I want you
to realize that this process Of e7olu-
ton is not q process which negatives
or excludes the idea of divine activity.
1t is. 1 venture to say. revela ton to
US of the manner Of divine activity.
1t is the way the Deity works.
The attempt to show that evolution
is unguided, that it is the result Of alb
solute change, fails. What ts pointed
to is not unguided random change, but
guided change. The other could not
be done in time.
What We have to realize in regard
to our place in the universe is that we
are intelligent. helpful and active parts
Of the cosmic scheme We are among
the agents Of the Creator. One OF the
most helpful IDEAS is cooperation
helping one another. Cooperation
this in a new and stimulating sense
cooperation with tho Divinity himself.
