GOD?
Dr. A. Cressy Morrison is a former president
of the New York Academy of Sciences and the
American Institute of the City of New York: he is
also a member of the executive board of the
National Research Council and a fellow of the
American Museum of Natural History and a life
member of the Royal Institute of Great Britain.
This well-known scientist is a believer in God.
One of seven reasons for his faith in the existence
of a Supreme Intelligence in the universe is “Our
Unique World.’’ Coming from such a man as Dr.
Morrison, his reasons cannot be merely
shruggedoff with a deprecating gesture or
ignored with a tolerant smile as words of
ignorance. His views must be considered.
Tremendous scientific discoveries have
taken place in the last few years and we are on
the very threshold of still more momentous
possibilities. All of these so far show more and
more clearly the evidence of the work of the
Creator Himself.
mere are so many conditions absolutely
essential to life on this planet of ours that they
could not possibly exist merely by chance. Dr.
Morrison reminds us that if we should mark ten
pennies from one to ten and then put them in a
pocket, give them a good shake, and start trying
to draw them out one at a time in the sequence of
one to ten, putting each coin back in the pocket
after each draw and shuffling them again, we
would come to some startling conclusions.
Mathematically, the chance of drawing number
one first is one in ten; of drawing one and two in
succession is one in a hundred; of drawing the
first three numbers in succession is one in a
thousand; and the chance of drawing all ten in
succession, one after the other, would reach the
unimaginable figure of one in ten billion. BUT IN
THIS EARTH OF OURS, OUR UNIQUE
WORLD, WE FIND TENS, YES HUNDREDS,
OF CONDITIONS EXISTING, ALL
NECESSARY FOR LIFE, which for their origin
make chance entirely unbelievable.
Submitted by Wesley G. Nicholson, senior pastor
of the First Congregational Church.
A great need in the Church today is
meaningful dialogue. Why not search courses
examining all documents relevant to the times
when Christianity was beginning? Why not take
Paul’s dictum seriously—“Prove all things, hold
fast that which is good”? Since the finding of the
Dead Sea Scrolls we are in possession of
documents that give new light upon the seedbed
of Christian ideas. Some of the sayings of Jesus
are found in documents that predate his Sermon
on the Mount. This suggests a widespread fer
ment in the Jewish society at the time of the
coming of Jesus. Every serious student of
Christianity should be reading much more than
his Bible.
Much dialogue is needed around
eschatological thought. It is now time to say that
the doctrine that God will intervene in a sinful
society by sending the return of hi I Son to cause
a cataclysmic change is a mista en hope that
arose in the troubled times of the) first century.
To be sure it had more ancient loots, but the
doctrine was crystallized and motivated by dire
persecutions during the formative days of our
faith. There is ample evidence that the coming
of the Son of man was expected during the time
when the early converts to the Church were
living. “There be some standing here which
shall not taste of death till they see the Son of
man coming in his kingdom.” “This generation
shall not pass till all these things be fulfilled.”
These are but two quotes. There are many
others. It is now time to admit that these ex
pectations were in error.
Further, it is now time to admit that, if our
society is to be redeemed, it will be done by
dedicated men and women. To say that the
redemption of society is to come through direct
intervention from God and to pray for that day to
come speedily, is to cop out religiously. Ther
redemption of society will not come from direct
Divine intervention. It will be VAC
COMPLISHED IF THERE ARE SUFFICIENT
MEN AND WOMEN WHO SAY AS Isaiah of old:
“Here am I, send me.”
