a salve. It’s a ‘•counter-irritant"; stimu­

Is This a Friendly
World?
There is a tendency to gtate truth
in terms of dead matter. We argue
from effect back
to first cause, and
thus conclude
that evolution ex­
plains not only
the cosmos but
also the complete
development of
the human race.
In spite of ex­
pressed opinions
to the contrary,
organic evolution
does explain the
orderly growth of
the universe, but
it does not ex­
plain all that is implied in answer
to the question, Is this a friendly
world? Another tendency is to state
truth in terms of cold reason. Un­
less we can see clearly our way
through a certain truth or expert-
ence, we instantly brand it as doubt­
ful or impossible. We instinctively
demand the reason for things. Why
did this or that happen? If a calami-
ty strikes us unaware, we may be­
come discouraged or rebellious.
Without economic or moral reserve,
we may reach the point of despair.
The world seems then, anything
but friendly. The world becomes
adamant, cruel. We frequently hear
people say that which we too have
said: "No! this is no friendly
world."
Another factor must enter the
equation before we can determine
whether or not this is a friendly
world. That factor is purpose. With­
out consideration of the purpose of
event we despair of obtaining a
satisfactory solution of either a sim­
ple or a complex problem of life.
There is a popular saying that what-
over happens is always for the best.
It is difficult to believe this at all
limes, especially when we look
ahead. When we review our past
experiences and the etfect of one
event upon another in the chain of
circumstances our life has met, we
are usually able to see beneficence
for whit once seemed a barnacle.
To think that this old world has no
purpose is thin and even vicious
thinking.
In medicine we have many drugs,
many of which are poisonous. A
physician's prescription may con­
tain one of these poisons. If we ex­
tract the poison and take it, we may
die. If we take the medicine as
given in the prescription, we may
recover. So it is in our daily ex­
perience. We should not extract a
great sorrow, or failure, or disap­
pointment and judge life by that
one event
It takes all of one life’s events to
reveal the pattern that holds its un­
broken thread of gold.
According to our vision of purpose
so is our perception of life. It is our
use of anesthetics that proves them
a curse or a blessing. The savage
who knows very little concerning
the moral element of purpose secu
in poison a drug that kills. He does
not know that poison may be made
a power for good; that electricity
may be controlled for the advance­
ment of civilization; that the dark­
ness of the night need give no cause
for fear.
We are far removed from the
savage mind and heart. We cannot
state truth in terms of destruction
only. We know that this is an order­
ly universe. The element of pur­
pose is in the cosmic process all
the way from the tiny blade of grass
to the giant oak of the forest. And
all things work together for good in
the moral and spiritual world.
