Editor Times:
Your contributor, "Ph.D.," is

controversy that was recently
debated by Mr.. Darrow and

To the ordinary layman,
with perplexities that confront
him in a consideration OF the
riddle of the universe, the
statement by "PhD." that
"agnosticism is a philosophical
absurdity" is not convincing.
His statement that "the theory
has been refuted more than
once by ancient and modern
philosophers" is open to wide
qualification.
