CHRISTIAN COMPLACENCY

Your correspondent, "Theological Student" has interpreted my letter like all good theologians—put and take —put in what you like and take out what you don't like. The comment about the failure of the Christian Order Movement was made at a meeting of Church people. He states that the campaign has hardly begun, as it is not a high, pressure publicity campaign for a few months. If it is not that, what is it? What has he been doing for nearly 2000 years? He complains that we turn a deaf ear to the Christian solution; if, as he believes, it is a solution to our present problems, then the fault must lie with the way he presents his wares, as every living soul is interested either from the Christian standpoint or otherwise. • There is humour in everything, and the advice that your correspondent has kindly offered to me, to take heed of our spiritual leaders and what they are saying from Sunday to Sunday does cause me to smile, for I have been listening to two sermons every Sunday for years, and I am still waiting for practical answers to the questions that are on lips, for surely this Divine Book has some message for this generation, or God hel P us- BRITISHER.
