which we take for granted, is It.,
self a product of the religion of
the Bible. One thing the Bible
makes plain is of the essence of
justice: rights and responsibilities
go together. The father and the
mother between them furnish the /
support, they command and teach.
The Teaching Mother
No one will try to make light
of mothers willing sacrifice in
bringing a child into the world.
But if all a woman does for her
children is to give them birth she
is not the Bibles idea of a good
mother. A woman who has a child
who, because of her neglect, is
only future thief or killer, might
better not have had the child at i
all. The Bible (as in Proverbs)
often brings out directly or in
directly the Importance of a good
mother in a child's life. And the
thing often mentioned is her serv-
ice as teacher. She is the principal
teacher-or she can be, if she
gives her time and mind to it
of her child for his first six years.
What has all this to do with
Justice" This much, at least:
One important feature of justice,
in society or in the family, is Civ
ing each person an opportunity to
is capable. Hence if mothers are
going to be good teachers, we
must see how important the edu-
cation of girls is. Educate boy
and you educate a future man.
Educate a girl and you educate a
future family" If mothers are to
Ne teachers, then justice requires
that everyone, husband and COM
munity alike, give them every en-
enlargement and opportunity to
live with their children.
The Children
In the Bibles teaching about
the home, one feature is stressed
which is not at all popular today,
though our country would be a
better one if it were more pop
ular: namely the idea of obedience.
What is the best contribution a
child can make to the well-being
of a home? Two things every
child can bring: Cheerfulness, and
obedience. And what has this to
do with justice? 1t should be OBJ
vious: Justice does not require
that everybody in a given group
or situation should be the equal
of everybody else there. There is
such a thing as subordination
which is fair and right. Justice in
the home does not call for chill
dren to be treated like grownups.
There is no conflict whatever be-
tween love and obedience; indeed
the best obedience is the obedi-
ence of love.
