CHANGING OPINIONS
BIBLICAL DISCREPANCIES CHURCH MUST FACE THE PROBLEM. (Per Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH. March 7. Declaring that there was a danger of the church trying to close all argument with regard to discrepancies that had been shown to exist in the Bible, Bishop West-Watson, preaching at the Cathedral last night, said that there were unquestionable discrepancies in the Bible, and he urged the Church to stand up and face the facts. “What position are we to take up?” asked the bishop. “Of one thing I am certain, and that is that if we nail our colours to the mast and refuse to change our opinions and in face of all, hold the Bible to be infallible in every point of science, history and literature, we may comfort some of the. old people and allow them to pass without knowing that their religious beliefs are being challenged, but we will lose the flower of the youth for God and religion.
