WARD STRESSES IMPORTANCE OF FAITH Hostility Between Faith and Science Causes Confusion, Says Theologian Dr 11. F Ward, professor of Clms l*im Ethics at Union Theological -ouHnary, based his Sunday chapel address on a quotation from the book ot John, “This is the uctorv that ov;- crcometh the world-—even our faith." Dr. Ward first spoke of the con tinual hostility between our liuth and the world in which we live The religious person lie said, is trying to live a bettor lift*, to make a better world and through this elfort is try ing to establish some connection with God. Our greatest fear he said should be "fear of the loss of an im perishable ideal,” which is the spirit of Jesus’ teachings “Thoic arc times when even the world itself seems hostile to us,” said the speuker. "What then 9 ” In spite of this seeming hostility, “the universe is on the side of right, nnd pood \\ll triumph over evil, if men will only work with God,” continued Di. Ward The dissatisfaction of youth with tin. piescnt-dnv world is really the t lie old search of the human heurt for better living and the struggle to make a better woi Id- lie declared. “The confusion of our time,” stated the speaker, “is the antagonism between faith and science,” in spite of the fact that ‘science goes forth by faith, buttresses our faith and shows us how to work.” “Faith, lie declared “is the creative attitude,” in doing things oil the belief that God is be hind our attitude, and finally- “faith puts us m co-opeiation with God to make our lives better and to improve the universe.” Student Council Sends Delegates to Tulane D D.
