just plain bored leaves me with the im pression that you must have spent the night on pierre ber- tons comfortable pew and with the conviction that were you a medical man and x a sick man i wouldnt care to have you as my doctor at least if your attempts at diaz- nosis were comparable to your diagnostics in church matters according to your under standing os per cent of our practical youth are remaining away from church because so many oreachers are boring that many preachers are bor ing i concede and i would make little objection if some one should hint at my being boring but to lay the blame upon this particular class for the fact that s6 per cent of our young people are missing church is an absurdity in the extreme has it occurcd to you that many of this 36 per cent have never even been inside a church to endure boredom why not lay some of the blame where it rightly belongs upon par ents who themselves never darken the door of any church upon some teachers who have an almost sadistic delight in downgrading the bible and ex pounding the theory of evo lution as though it were a sci entific fact upon certain news paper columnists and radio an nouncers who preening them selves in their fancied intellec- tualism make hundreds of youthful disciples to their anti- god and antibible cults while they fill the eye and regale the cars with blasphemies and near- blasphemies all these work together to sa turate the thinking of our youth with the idea that to be lieve in god is naive christi anity is a superstition church- going is for the old and the sissy and the immature how long do you suppose our practical youth would go to school if the educational insti tutions were subjected to the contempt and petty persecu tions the church undergoes it is difficult enough even now to keep the young people in school it comes to me now that per haps the boring teachers are better off than the boring preachers the government backs them up you make a rather peculiar comment on preaching that many ministers preach solely from the bible without applica tion to the day in which we live i am one minister who hastens to plead guilty to the first half of the charge

ordais- ed to do actually some ol the most boring preachers i know are among those who have graduated from the bible and are now lamely trying to con duct a seconorae course on how to win friends and in fluence people we nave alto gether too many amateur psy chologists sextheme lecturers and petty politicians in the pulpits iney ought to be turn ed out with the money chan gers as for the second half of the charge how can any man preacn solely from the bible and not deal witn the day in which we live any man who seems to do this must have his own special version of the bible this is one of the wonders of the book it touches every age here let me repeat in suo- stance what one lecturer in preaching has said preachers deserve more understanding than they get loaded with a variety of timeconsuming tri vialities carrying on a routine of pastoral calling they must yet meet a deadline three times a week with talks that are ex pected to inspire convict and challenge the uninitiated will find this difficult to swallow but the average politician news columnist and other producers of writings and speeches have it soft in comparison to the aver age preacher pity us if we are sometimes boring but remem ber that even mr churchill was less than inspiring in many of his house of commons speeches i must mention one more thing you speak of preachers attempting to frighten their congregations with quaking descriptions of the sinful here after in all my 28 years in the ministry this is the first time i have ever heard of a sinful hereafter but theology is a deep subject and i would not pretend to compare my theolo gical training with that of gor don sinclair pierre berton hugh garner and other of their noble order of agnostics who have pontificated on the here and the hereafter as for the matter of frightening the con gregations where a minister believes in an impending judg ment he has as much right to raise his voice as one who sees his friend in any other danger if any preacher does not be lieve in responsibility and a coming judgment why on earth is he preaching he should run off and join a cult of moralists and leave the christian church to its original business of recon ciling men to god personally i do not believe in needlessly and senselessly frightening peo ple but i do wonder if one curse of our day is that young of nothing and no one par ents teachers police or any authority this letter will probably con vey the impression that i am earnest to the point of annoy ance but reject the impression and believe that i have only said this because of a strong feeling that it should be said by someone faithfully j arthur walsh on the farm front committee prepares for 1965 int plowing match a a mali agricultural representative york county there
