and then interprets that Bible
to the peopled By the interpret i
tation the Protestant Minister
gives Scripture ia tha opinion
of hia congregation formed,
even that which holds tho
earth te be flat. In other words,
if you give mo, a Minister, a
book and tho poouliar privilego
of interpreting that book to
poreons who believe it contains,
the infallifjlo Word of Odd that
makes my opinion infallible, tho
degreo of belief in infallibility,
of course, depending on the ed
ucation of those to whom I .
preach.
Dr. Cartledge asserts that “no
Roman Catholic country Ime ever
enjoyed the blessings of popular
government * until it threw ofr the
yoke of Roman Catholicism." He
might have added that history has
been a continuous struggle of one
group throwing off the yoke of
another group. Sometimes it has
been the tyranny of Kings, some,
times that of Nobles, sometimes
lhat of the Bishops and the No
bles, sometimes that: of the Min
istry, both Protestant and Catholic.
Dr. Cartledge might have gone on
fo say, with 100 percent truth,
that any individual, or group of
individuals, will misuse power un.
less that power Is checked. The
Catholic Church misused ft during
Its day. The Protestant Scottish
Kirk, (Council of Ministers) mis-
used It fn Scotland during Its day.
DT. Cartledge refers to the well
known attempt of the Catholic
Church (during the Middle Ages)
to prevent the Bible'from being
placed Into the hands of the people.

man Catholicism haa always op-

f 'spirit of liberty are found in the
! effort to give tho Bible (o the peo-

.Bible the rule of faith and conduct,
‘let the people have it in a lan-
, ‘tg* re they understand, free from
comment; let them read It and
think for themselves, and then act
aecordinglv. Such was the conten
tion of John Wickliffe In the 14th
century. And Wickliffe was ex
communicated; hia Bible was burn-
' ad; readers of the hook were
burned with copies tied about their
necks to burn with them; men and
women were put to death for
teaching their children the Lord’s
prayer and the ten commandments
and forty years after his death,

atanee the bones of Wickliffe were
exhumed and burned, and his

And what was hia offense! He
simply dared to think and apeak

And that influence, already so
great, ia rapidly increasing. In a
hundred years it has increased
from two per cent of our popula
tion to twenty per cent. The
election of Govomor Smith would
give it a trameadous impetus:
and taking into account Gover

representing as ! believe, several

decline to ha a party to such ar.
