Senior citizens turned out well for SO A's focus attention on freedom of conscience With the possibility of renewed pro motion of prayer in public schools, members of the Vernonia Seventh-day Adventist Church will look more closely at the important aspects of freedom of conscience and worship during services this Saturday. As members of a church that takes a minority position that Saturday is the Biblical Sabbath, Adventists are keenly aware of the need for religious liberty. Currently, Duane Maycock, Religious Liberty Secretary for the church, has been promoting LIBERTY, a magazine of religious freedom, published by the Seventh-day Adventist denomination. He has also been giving a brief series of mini-lectures on the importance and meaning of liberty. One of his favorite quotes, he says, is from Abraham Lin coln: “What constitutes the bulwark of our liberty and independence? it is not our frowning battlements, our bristling seacoasts, the guns of our war steamers, or the strength of our gallant army. These are not our reliance against a Resumption of tyranny in our land.... “Our reliance is in the love of liberty which God has planted in our bosoms. Our defence is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands everywhere. Destroy this spirit and you have planted the seeds of despotism around your own doors. Familiarize ;yourself with the chains of bondage, and you are prepar ing your own limbs to wear them.’’ Says Maycock, “you can get the hightest good out of liberty, or you can get the worst crimes. It depends on how it is used. The constitution was built on the assumption that the majority of peo ple, if given liberty, would choose to do good. That has held true so far,” he says, “but in order to maintain our liberties, we must propagate and support the inherent liberty of each person, with its accompanying responsibility.’’ It is against the present political religious tendencies * of evangelical groups today that LIBERTY magazine takes its stand. It keeps track of the religious climate in America and elsewhere, says Maycock.

Also, the threats to religious liberty are printed. For instance, those who sell religious literature encounter ordinances that prohibit them from doot-to-door activities. And federal aid to colleges and universities is often used as a lever to ditcatc hiring and firing practices with regard to religion. Donations from church members will be taken during the service this Saturday to support LIBERTY, says Maycock. The magazine has a circulation of nearly half a million, and it has been a consis tent award-winner in magazine competi tion for its content and design. Its cir culation is mainly amongst the nation’s leaders and thinkers, as well as those in terested in preserving liberty, he says.
