Thursday, January 4, 1973 The Nyssa Oat« City Journal, Nyssa, Oregon W ish I' d said T hat I There’* quite a to-<3o in me dical circles about when a man I is dead. One group asserta that a man is dead when his heart stops beating. “Not ne cessarily ao,” claims another group, “he's dead when hia mind stops functioning.” • So what?” you may ask. • What difference does it make? In either case, he's done for.” If you were a patient waiting for a heart transplant, it would probably make a great deal of difference. Too often a man's heart continues to beat long after his mind ceases to func tion, sometimes for months. In heart transplants seconds count. The point that interests me is with all of the modern know ledge in medicine, emminent Doctors are unable to tel) when a man is dead. They are even talking about brain transplants but know nothing of the vital spark of life. Athlests will tell me that I am entirely wrong when I claim that the spark of life la the spirit or sou) of man. It is that gift to al) living things from a power greater than our own. This has been the general belief of mankind throughout all recorded history. Ancient men worshipped a supreme be ing and this belief in something more powerful than himseiryias always been a stimulus for cleaner living. Some great minds today are teaching, "There is no God.” This they only presume, they do not actually know and in the meantime many fertile young minds grasp upon this as an excuse to obey nothing. It is right to create a doubt for no theory or law has ever been formulated as fact without first having a doubt. To question a fact Is good, but to blindly close the mind can often lead one astray. Each time I doubted a truth and thought it out, my convictions became stronger. Many of our young people are turning to thoughts on religion and perhaps this will be the answer to the problems of to&y. Hope springs eternal within the human breast but without some thing to look up to there is little hope. In the meantime, if you doubt, look around you. See your neigh bor, the birds, trees, and hun dreds of animals, all in exact ness as to make an error rare. Then lay it all to mere chance. 1, personally, think there is some power greater than myself.
