Lincoln said that mud slinging is not argument, and it may be added that be- littling an opponent’s viewpoint with such inveetives as “unthinkable”, “preposterous” or “crazy”, or whatnot, also is not argu- ment. Nothing is ever gained, except hard feelings, in a conversation or debate, in de- nouncing another’s expressions. If what one says is wrong, the false reasoning can be pointed out without becoming denoun- ciatory. As to anything being “unthinkable”, such an assertion is. contradictery in itself, for, were it,not' thinkable,' it would: not: be advanced regarding’ ‘any question’ at issue, t the f. fact! that it was said bantint that the thoughswas evolved."

Now figure out how many sec- onds in a year, multiply that by 40 years and you have the distance from that star to the earth. 30 countries, says that “all the’ evidence is that the Russians themselves are giving the churches, as such, freedom.” The fact that the early revolutionary movement seemed hostile to religion is un- doubtedly based upon the enmity express- ed toward the churches in Russia as organi- tions.
