Sees No Conflict.
MY love for my mother has never
interfered with my love for my wife.
There is no conflict in such a dual al
legiance. Theology is concerned with
the aspirations of men and with their
faith in a future life. Science is con-
cerned with the processes Of nature
Theology may be static, but science
must be based on progress, develop
ment and constant experime ntation.
The more we know about nature and
the more we learn about nature
through science, the greater should be
our appreciation of the beauty and
power of God.
This country is not suffering from
bad people. but from good people who,
in their ignorance, feel ordained to
save the rest of us who stand in no
need of their ideal salvat ton.
The healthiest bit Of advice for the
average American today would be:
Mind your own business, take care of
your own soul and life. and You will
find that you will have no leisure
hours to he minding the business of
your neighbor."
