SAYS LIBERALISM
IS A NECESSITY
Rabbi CronbaCh Holds 1t Does
Not and viii Not Take
Bible Away.

We need not stick to the thoughts
of our grandfaIhers and hold his
ideas Of the Bible supreme, but II IS
necessary that we differentate from
their thoughts and ideas according TO
Rabbi Cronbach at Temple Bethel
Sunday morning in his sermon on the
subject. Religious Liberalism" In
part, he said:
Down at the foundation of relig-
ious liberalism is the sentiment that
il is good for people to be different.
All liberalism, all freedom is rooted
right there, that differentiation is a
blessing and not pane. All progress,
all growth is differentiation. All get
ting forward involves taking posi-
ton different from the one which you
have now When a plant grows, the
seed becomes q shoot which is some
thing different from the seed; the
shoot becomes a leaf, which is some
thing different from the shoot; the
leaf becomes a blossom, which is
something different from the leaf; the
blossom becomes fruit, which is
something different from the blossom
Differentiation is the condition OF
growth and growth is the condition or
differentiation.
viii Not Take Bible Away.
Liberalism can not and would not
take the Bible away from the people.
Liberalism merely assumes the right
to have views about the Bible different
from those which our grandfathers
had.
Religion is the most precious thing
in the world. Religion should there
fore rest on a foundation, not of
ouicksand. but of adamant. Our
changing theories about the Bible are
the quicksand. The adamant is the
heart, appreciation of goodness, beauty
and duty. IL anything can be said
10 be from everlasting to everlasting,
that is the hearts appreciation of
goodness, beauty and duty. This
abides no matter how much peoples
ideas about the Bible change.
Cause your faith to rest upon your
grandfather's ideas about the Bible
and one need only pick flaws with
your grandfather's ideas about the
Bible-which is not very hard to do
and the basis of your faith Is seriously
impaired.
No Crime Not To Think
Thinking is a hard process. Think
ing is a disagreeable process. Think
ing is a painful and disturbing process.
1t is a merit to think 1t is virtue
TO think. Still ii is no crime TO be
unable TO think. and no derelictiOn
TO be so busy with other good things
as to have neither the time nor
strength to think. Conversati ton helps
people live fine and noble lives, while
exempting them from the travail Of
thinking.
Liberalism is necessary for the
