Is there anything in the belief in reincarnation which is incompatible | with the teachings of Christ, and Is| there anything in the Bible which might give one grounds for believing in | the doctrine of reincarnation? I think perhaps I know too little about tke doc- trine to accept or reject it; but from what I do know I sometimes find a so- lution for the problems of suffering and inequalities in this world which noth- ing else seems to satisfy. Is it un- Christian to believe that the inequali- ties of life are due to the previous progress one has made, and that our lives pass through various phases on this planet, just as children advance from grade to grade in the same school? A. There have been numerous Chris- tians of note who accepted the theory of reincarnation, and also schools of Christian thought ,in which the doc- trine figured prominently. But the Christian church, as a whole, has re- jected it, belleving that the soul, or seM, was created at birth. Concern- ing this, twc theories have survived— one called creationism, which teaches that the soul is directly created by an act of God; the other, called tradu- cianism, which teaches’ that the soul is an emanation from both parents. ‘The one passage in the teachings of Christ which directly deals with the issue is our Lord's absolute denial that | blindness from birth was a result of | previous sin, either on the part of the sufferer himself or of his parents. (See St. John's Gospel, ix.1-41.) It may be considered indefensible to use a solitary passage for the purpose | of defeating an anclent doctrine like | reincarnation. But the issue is not in doubt. According to our Lord, handi- caps and limitations do not come from the transgressions of an individual oc- curring in a previous existence. The appeal of the theory of reincarnation | in behalf of ultimate justice is admit- | tedly strong. You feel that it may ac- count for grave inequalities in life, es- pecially for the sufferings of the righteous and the seeming happiness of the unrighteous. Yet appearances are illusive, and you often find happiness and good cheer in | dismal places which apparently forbid these blessings. Moreover, inequality in and of itself is not always the unjust thing so many conceive it to be. For instance, take poverty and riches. Why, | s asked, should a small and wealthy | minority be thus favored and the ma- | jority left in near-distress. Andrew | Carnegle answered this question out of | bis own experience. In his “Empire of | Business” he says, “I heartily subscribe{ to President Garfleld's doctrine that ‘the richest heritage & young man can be_born to is poverty.’ " Besides, a world without some sort of inequality would not be very interest- ing. 1 am not saying that any great teacher lives today who can offer a rea- sonable explanation of all life’s mys- teries. 1 merely state that circum- stances which are so favorable as to demand no effort are not beneficlal On the contrary, they are distinctly hurtful. = Read McTaggart's “Pre-existence’ and Walker's “Reincarnation” on the one hand and the New Testament on the other and be guided by the latter. Q Old Testament errors, if such they be, are perpetuated in the New Testa- ment. St. Paul admits that “the ser- pent beguiled Eve.” If he was mistaken on this point, may he not have been mistaken about I Corinthians, xv? If Jesus did not vanquish death, then Christianity is a myth, I can believe in the resurrection and in Christian immortality, because the Bible emphatically deciares them, but | fiapfiat __(COLORED) ZION BAPTIST CHURCH F St. bet. 3rd & 474 Sts.

Parkes Cadman. what if the apostles were mistaken on this point? A. Truths have relative importance. ‘To place all parts of the literature called the Bible on an equal level, thus making Chronicles as necessary as the words of our Lord, is an unreasonable gent students of Holy Writ. of illustration, but he never intended that his great fifteenth chaper of 1 Co- rinthians should depend for its validity on Genesls, The first’ part of that early document was written by a Hebrew poet to de- scribe creation and the mysterious ori- gin of sin in the world, but whatever its origin was, sin is a tremendous fac- tor, and how to get rid of it is the bur- den of the apostle's argument. This proceeds on a foundation of strong his- toric certitude and has the sanction of our actual experience. Countless mil- lions have conquered sin in_the life- giving strength of Jesus the Christ. His Tesurrection is spiritually repeated in all believers who are crucified with Christ to sin and live with Him to righteousness. How else can we account for the per- petual miracle of His consciously felt presence in human souls, for the rise of the Christian church, for the writing of the New Testament and for the growth of a civilization in which Christ is rec- ognized as the mightiest among the holy and the holiest among the mighty? I urge you o apply sound sense, the historic spirit and the witness of your own heart, to your interpretations of the sacred writings. Q. Is Socialism a religion? A. In the strictest sense Socialism is not a religion. In fact, it teaches that religion is a personal matter. A man may be an atheist, a Buddhist, a Mo~ hammedan, a Theosophist or a Chris- tian, and still be a Socialist. Or he may | be supremely indifferent to these and all other forms of faith and still be a Socialist. Some advocates of this creed arri by another. Not a few declare they found in Christ's Christianity the in- spiration which first drew them to the Socialistic movement. It is significant that those leaders who associate it with spiritual and religious ideals have usual- ly followed this course. Among these are Ramsay Macdonald, Phillip Snow- don and "Arthur Henderson, all of Whom began their public careers as pronounced Christians. Should you ask, however, if there is a religion of Socialism, the answer is that many of its adherents conceive it in exalted terms constituting it their worls ing faith. Yet brief reflection should convince you that Judaism and Chris- tianity are infinitely bigger than Social~ ism, Liberalism, Conservatism, Democ~ racy, Republicanism or any other polit- ical and economic party or theory. Man must have his political allegiances, but he cannot live by them alone. His soul economic produce. The lasting solution of the problems confronting society is hopeless apart from the spiritual freedom of a great, religious dynamic. Mr. Hyndman, the eminent st, confessed just before his old notion” of Soctal- ism as an ethical faith for collective humanity was utterly inadequate, = “T used to think,” he said, “that social democracy would take the place of re- ligion, but I now see that h want ‘something more.» o0 PeingS L ;imhé Friends Meeting L ELBERT RUSSELL of Duke U ise will be'in‘uitendance, unday ‘Sclioo! eetine for Worship CThursduy)—Prayer meeting.

Its ex- terior, plerced by the charactenistic ointed gothic windows, is plain and acks ornament of any type, and save for the 135-foot tower which contains the ancient chimes it is plain almost to the point of extremeness. However, the interior sBows one of the most beautiful churches in Western Europe, certainly the most beautiful in Bruges, a beauty contrasting sharply with the outer ap- pearance of the ancient edifice, Strange, too, that so simple a struc- ture was erected in the fourteenth cen- tury of Bruges, for this period, under the Dukes of Burgundy, was the high- est point in the prosperity of the city. The magnificence of the Flemish court Cathedral of St. Sauvier, Bruges, Belgium. of the time was such that no other in | Europe could compare with it, When | the ‘wife of Philip the Fair of France | visited the city in the fourteenth cen- | tury, she exclaimed, “There are hun- queens than myself.” It was here that Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, established in 1430 the order of the Golden Fleece, a tribute to the cloth- makers of the town, at this time the most expert in all Europe. In the year 1704, while the town was besieged by the Dutch, part of the ornate tower was destroyed; in 1708 and 1745 it was used as cavalry headquarters by the French, who treated the cathedral none too gently during the occupation of the city. And, though Bruges was occupled by the Germans for four years from 1914 to 1918, the | venerable churc™ suffered none during these years. It stands today much as it | did when Bruges was the greatest of the Hanseatic cities, LOCAL BIBLE READERS CONDUCTING CONTEST Questions to Be Submitted October 15 to Any One Caring to Join, A Summer Bible reading contest is in progress under the auspices of the National and International Community Bible Readers’ League in this city.
