There are plenty of people who offer their views about thc caus- es cf the present trouble." The foregoing Is the first para- grapli of an article appearing In the Liverpool Daily Post by Dr. Clifford Martin, Lord Bishop cf Liverpool, England. The article la one. et'a series by leading men who have been asked to give their ideas on economic recovery. Sim- Ilar series cf articles have been appearing lu British. journals in recent mtbths on national and world problems. The British Weekly lias beon running a series on question, "Has The Church Failed?" One of these articles, contributedby J. Middîeton Mur- ry deals With the question from t1 historical point o! view. "The cflsls o! humanity is man-- test," says Mr. Mursy. "Either there is a Christian thlng to 'do, or there is nbt. If there is not, the Christian Church stands self- condemned of irrelevance to bumanity lu the moment o! its dire need. It would not mattes Ifi4h. Christian thing to do were barsh-if, for example, the Chris- tian thing to say was that it did net matter if bumanity were de- stroyeti by the atomic bomb. That la probably what the early Chris- tian Church would have said. And if the Christian Cburch were to say it again with conviction, it would be supremely relevant to the buman cnisis. It wouid at least be a proclamation of faith in wbat the Christian Chusch still1 likes.tesuggest it believes in." 1 Mr. ury says there. is ne body o! Christian internationalistsc analogous te the Communist Par-1 ty, and that the Church bas fail-i cd because it bas "'ceased te fui-( fil itsi ost majestic-and mcet magnificent funtion-that cf cre- ating and unlting a civilfl.tion.", But this hnrdily agreas with what Mr. Murry suggests uhould b. the. attitude o! the Çhurch te the atomie bomb.. If the Church ln to be ludifferent as te tthe pesaibil- lty of humanity belng deatroyed by the. atomic boinb, it could not logicnlly "secularize Christianty" by entering whole-heantedly lin- to' politics, as Mr. Murry con- tenda it shouid. Bishop Martin, whom I quoted at the bead c! this article, ap- proaches the question froma a dif- ferent and, I think, a more prac- tical point cf view. He says: "Wbat are eco!lomies and polit- ics anway? Tbew are ways cf organizing soclety towanda cer- tain -cnds; unless the ends are those for which man Is madé the plans will not work-Before we can succeed with cconemlc plan- ning we must have some de!in- ite idea about the nature o! man.
