Calling pietism and activism as two sieds of the sine coin, Dr. MacDonald stated that you must have both sides to have legitimate currency. : "A Christian life that is all activism and protest and never touches the depths of spiritual reality is going to be severly limited * n its witness," he said, "On the other hand, a faith that is all pietism, prayers, hymn singing, 'Brother I'm saved', and glosses over the vils of society will be impotf nt witness," he stated. He stated that he cannot commend a faith that interprets the Bibical injunction to "keep yourself unspotted from the world" as menaing "don't get involved involved in the world". The Moderator was leading 625 delegates in a study of chapter 17 of Matthew's gospel where Peter, James and John proposed they build three shrines, one each for Jesus, Moses and elijah who apparently had engaged in conversation there. "Isn't it interesting that whenever a prophet appears appears we want to institutionalize him," obsevred Dr. MacDonald. "We want to build something that will • confine the experience to a given place and time. We try to manage experiences, forgotting that the Church is not sole dispenser of the grace of God," he said. Dr. Macdonald warned that the studying of the significance of Jesus must not be a way of running away from the issues around us. "The disciples wanted to stay on the mountain top but Jesus refused to allow then to * do so but rather to place themselves in the midst of human need. He described the'demon'of apartheid which he' had seen at work in a recent visit to South Africa. "South Africa is like a beautiful body with a virus in its bloodstream. That virus is apartheid," he said. He turned to racism in Canada where ap Alberta teacher and mayor had taught that the six million Jews killed in the Nazi holocaust had not, in fact, been killed. Dr. MacDonald then asked, "Why had it taken pressure before the Premier of Alberta to màke a ststaefnent disavowing anti-semitism?

I mean we really don't need any more of that jut-jawed conservatism whose most profound conviction is that making the rich richer will somehow make the poor richer too. We don't need that nonsense any more than the NDP lunch-bucket wing's ethereal assumption that labour is always right and pure, and that management is always wrong and evil. What we need, rather than a series of firm positions on issues, is someone who will honestly identify our major problems and who will avoid playing Jehovah by pronouncing confidently on how to solve them. A man in Beamsville who writes me regularly has just' sent me an article from THE GUARDIAN of January 30 on Hans Vogel, who made a determined run at Chancellor Kohl in the last West German election. While Chancellor Kohl extolled the virtues of Margaret Thatcher's old- fashioned approach to the economy and employment, Mr. Vogel eschewed bandaid solutions and probed painfully painfully for deeper truths. Unemployment, Mr. Vogel pointed out is part of a "deep, world-wide process that cannot be reversed by a return to growth. Where would the growth come from? On what markets would the products be sold, and at what cost to the environment?" environment?" Mr. Vogel is no pushover when it comes-to the Soviets and the nuclear issue: "Make no mistake," he told THE GUARDIAN, "if the Americans move in the missile talks and the Soviets don't -- then we deploy Cruise, and Pershing." He characterized the difference between his positiçn and Chancellor Kohl's this way: "Kohl told the Americans he would seek a mandate " to deploy the missiles. I want a mandate so that I can • contribute to conditions that will make deployment unnecessary," unnecessary," Mr. Vogel, clearly, is a man worth listening , to and it's an indictment of Canadian television that we know so little of him in this country. During the campaign, campaign, he accused Chandelier Kohl of having the mentality mentality of a travelling fortress, which says "Jump aboard, .we'll protect yod." "I don't believe," Mr. Vogel continued, continued, "that it's the business of politicians to throw up protective mounds round people so they don't have tosep the new trends in society and the world." Neither do I, Herr Vogel. Spare us the dogma and rigid ideology, which tend to constitute bullet-proof defenses against both changing realities and fresh thinking. And stop trying trying to feed us simplistic, reflex solutions to problems that are hopelessly complex. What I'm looking for in a leadership candidate at this point is a little thoughtful confusion.
