The amount of crime and the gen-
eral disregard for laws, both hmuan
and divine, which are afflicting the
world like a pestilence, are causing
many good people to exclaim, "What's
wrong with religion?" The answer
is that there is nothing wrong With
any religion that is ethical, that is
sincerely practiced. Not long ago a
prominent divine declared from the
pulpit that if he happened to be wan-
dering in a Central African Jungle
and -•nine suddenly upon an abhorine
engaged in the worship of a stuffed
toad, h<> would take off his hat to
him, as in liiin would he combined
at least the ideals of faith and sin
