Segregation One OF
Challenges To Faith,
States Article

NEW YORK, Dec, 21-In its
current issue devoted entirely to
the subject of Christianity, LIFE
Magazine examines today's re-
ligious boom in the U. S. and
finds that through the boom in
belief runs a thread Of doubt"
'In many areas" LIFE says,
Christians ignore the tenets
of their faith and practice racial
S e gregation. Religious leaders
also worry how much new inter-
est in Christianity is only a mum
dane cult Of reinsurance which
does not meet the major challen-
ges to Christianity. But the
doubts, and the willingness to
ask searching questions, are in
themselves a measure of Chris
tianity's vigor in the us. and its
capacity for new growth"
