MISCEGENATION
Sir,—The American Baptists' Association is quite right in opposing racial integration. They have rightly quoted the ancient script on this matter; but unfortunately have not the scientific knowledge with which to substantiate their reasons lor opposition. The ancients were well aware of the truth regarding reincarnation, as proved by the Socrates-Meno dialogue. We are all at different levels on the evolutionary path as Jesus explained in his “Other sheep have I. etc. The Moslems, I understand, pray, “Whiten Thou my face.” So here re evidence that the white man should, through the evolutionary process, have reached such a degree of perfection as to be a perfect example for his less highly evolved brothers. Has he done this? The different fleshes, dark and white, should not be mixed in marriage. This crime constitutes the adultery of the ancient script.—Yours, etC '' M. G. DAVIS. Kowal Bush. June 29. 1956.
