Show TEST RUN, Dug way Proving Ground, Friday, April 22, 1966 A We Want Faith To Live By, Only The Fool Hu Said S in Hii Heart .There ii no God Pnlm 53 by Chap. (Maj) John F. Kenny These word of the Psalmist were probably written almost 3000 years ago but they are Just appropriate today as they were in his own time. They show that a problem or a question that seems to be agitating so much the modem mind is nothing new. For this might be the impression one could get from all the recent emphasis on the The Death of Cod movement, such u is indicated by the cover of the Easter issue of Time magazine. Therefore, the tendency to regard this matter as peculiar to our age receives an abrupt arrest when one realizes that essentially the identical issues were presented to die ancient and unsophisticated times of the Hebrew king. David, who certainly has his vices and who often enough acted als ob (u if) there were no God, never descended to the sophistry of denying Gods existence just to escape responsibility for his actions. It took Nathan the prophet to shake him up enough to be able to recognize die wickedness of his adultery with Bathsheba and his equivalent murder or Uriah, her husband; but once having come to grips with his personal sin, he acknowledged it, and repented of it. Could it be that this, in part, is the reason why so many seem to be so anxious to proclaim the death of God, that they do not wish to have to face the facts of their own sink? After all, it is so much easier to make a verbal or mental disavowal than to try to change your way erf living As was stated by one of the information to high school workers who distributed birth-contrgirls in a large city: It is easier to teach contraception thrti chastity. Sin implies the transgression of some moral or spiritual law; where there is no lawgiver, there is no law; where there is no law there is no sin; where there is no sin, there is nothing for your conscience to have to worry about. And we all know that worry is a bad thing Right? Modem man, losing his grasp of absolutes, wants to have his cake and eat it too. He glories in his freedom (which is a created and therefore finite attribute) yet wants to be so free that he can ignore die principle of contradiction. He wants to revel in his perfections, yet refuses to refer them to their Uncreated Source. He wants to admire his own beauty while ignoring that it is but an image or a reflection of the First Cause. u He wants to be an activist without being a participator; in fine, he wants the impossible. He wants to be autonomous, unaccountable, he wants to be God. He can do these things; he can act that way. But he cannot so do and so act and yet make sense; and. a fool is one who does not make sense. Every usurper starts out by denying the legitimacy erf occupation of the one he means to upseaL But there is nothing modem about this; it was the implicit temptation in the Garden of Eden. One does not have to be a great theologian or philosopher, capable of constructing iron-cla- d arguments which demonstrate the existence of Cod, to be able to believe in Him. Intuition, common sense, simplicity, a working conscience and faith go much further. On the contrary, one has to be very clever and intelligent to be able to construct specious reasonings which can lead the unwary away from belief, so natural is the inborn conclusion that all contingent things must have a cause and that there must be a sufficient reason for the nobility which were sure we were bom to achieve. The quinque vie of Saint Thomas Aquinas have not been refuted; they are still as valid as ever. The arguments from motion, from design, from beauty, etc. are just as convincing as they ever were. If they are not, die fault lies not in the propounded argument, but in the hearer. He is the one who has changed. The next time you bear someone deny the existence of God, ask him if he has ever carefully pondered these arguments. Further, find out if he is even willing to consider their possible persuasiveness. There are 19,000 Conflict veterans in Utah, and 2,400 are expected to take advantage of the educational provisions of the new Cl Bill (Pubin its first year, lic Law Mr. Elmer J. Smith, manager of the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Salt Lake City,' has announced. THE PROGRAM will not begin until June 1, 1966, and application blanks and information will be available at the VA Regional Office, 125 South State Street, Salt Lake 'City, and most colleges and educational Mr. l, centers in Utah by Smith said. He urged veterans not to ask for information or application blanks for educational benefits before In general, the educational program will be open to all veterans with more than 180 days active duty service, any part of which occurred cm or after Feb. 1, 1955. The veteran must have a discharge that is other than dishonorable or must have been discharged or released for a disability. Active duty for training purposes in a reserve program does not qualify for educational benefits, even though the active duty for framing purposes exceeds 180 days, and this would exclude those who completed a enlistment in a reserve military program. VETERANS WILL be eligible for one month of education for each month or fraction of a month that they were on active duty. Servicemen with at least two years of duty may participate in the educational program even though they remain in the service. Their assistance payments will cover the institutional charges for tuition and fees or $100 per e month for courses, whichever is the lesser. Courses may be taken at approved colleges and universities, vocational schools, correspondence schools and at high school (VA) - 89-35- 5 May 1961 - Commander Alan B.

The maximum period allowed will be 36 months (equivalent to school years) four regular but veterans who have previously received educational assistance under a VA educational program will have to deduct that amount of training from their present eligibility. THERE ARE no retroactive payments. Veterans who would have been eligible under the new GI Bill but who have already taken courses at their own expense may not collect now for the time they were in school, since the new program does not start until June 1, 1968. However, they have the right to pursue further education along the line of their vocational or professional goals, beginning on that date. There is no deadline fixed as to the date a veteran must start his education. Completion or termination dates for each veteran will be eight years from their last discharge from active duty. However, to protect those veterans who may have left the service before June 1, 1966, all eligible veterans will be able to participate in the program until May 31, - Your rate may be increased if you have a wife, child or dependent parent.

And, for such an unfortunate creature, in his blindness or in his bitterness, to assert that it has, must be attributed to some other agency than sound reason. The fault, perhaps, lies not in his head, but in his heart, that he would make such a foolish statement. But who wants to be a fool?
