HITS CONTRADICTORY RELIGIOUS BELIEFS The tendency to believe that ‘it makes no difference what church a man belongs to, or if he belongs to none, so long as he is upright and hon- orable,” was declared fallacious by Rev. Joseph Malloy of the Paulist Fathers in a lecture at the Shrine of the Sacred Heart last night on “Is One Religion as Good as Another?” Dr. Malloy sald: “To say it makes no difference what o man belleves, is to say that right and wrong, truth and error, are all the same. There are over 300 Chris. tian sects in the world today, and many of them are teaching doctrines contradietory one to another. No church, of course, consclously and de- liberately teaches error; but two con- tradictory statements cannot possibly be true at the same time; one of them The Largest Men’s and Boys’ Wear Store in Washington Satisfaction and MORE— Men’s Suits and FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1925. must be wrong. To say, therefore, that it makes no difference to which one of these many sects teaching con- tradictory bellefs a man belongs, is to say that it makes no difference whether he holds to the truth or to an error.” Tonight's lecture will be delivered by Rev.
