Then there aie the socialized Sunday schools. More and more of them are spending less time on the great Bible stories, preferring inthe stead tn propagandize small fry with such highly causes as the unspiritual grape strike, the need for slum clearance and the inequity of American foreign policy. One em.nent Anglican Prof. Joseph Fletcher, announced in the kind of stentorian tones formely reserved for the breaking of the seals in the Book of Revelation: Sex is clearly in the category of recreation. In sex, we call freedom love. In politics, we call it democracy. In short, fellow parents, .ve now find ourselves in a box where if we preach continence and virginity to our own children we run the risk of being denounced from the pulpit as undemocratic. This equating of free love with free speech would, Im sure, have intrigued T. Jefferson and A.

They have boycotted some of tbeir own parishioners for the heinous sm of fanning their land as their fathers had farmed it befoie them. And they have condemned w it!) almost pagan eloquence the earnest efforts of our State Board of Education to set up a few modest, moral guidelines for classroom Instruction. the mod ministers have sneered ai the virgin birth, poked fun at the divinity of Christ and mocked at any notion of personal immortality. Some of them invite known atheists to harangue their flocks. Others set up rock combos instead of choirs and frug their way through swinging services right in front of the altar.
