I Asks Bible Reading | In Public Schools i The National Association of I Evangelicals has adopted a reso-B lutiori proposing a change in the® ’ U. E. constitution to allow Bible • reading and prayer in public 1 schools; _ Dr, Jared F- Gerig, > president of Fort Wayne Bible 1 College and first vice-president of 2 the National Association of Evangelicals attended the executive committee meeting of the N. A. E. in Chicago on Tuesday, December 10, when the resolution was adopted. The Decatur Missionary church and the First Missionary church of Berne are members of the NAE. The complete text of the resolution follows; WHEREAS, evangelicals are committed to the conviction that, while Church and State must be separate, the State has an irrevocable obligation to the transcendent God of the universe and to objective justice, and in view of this fact, has an obligation to in,l culcate in rising generations the belief that religion, morality and knowledge are essential to good government and the happiness of its citizens; and / , WHEREAS, recent decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States declared that state-spon-sored Bible reading and prayer as religious exercises are unconstitutional and illegal on the ground that the principle of separation of Church and State inherent in the First Amendment would thereby be transgressed; and WHEREAS, the resulting revolutionary changes in long-estab-lished practices are beginning to create a moral and religious vacuum in our educational system in which secularism, humanism practical atheism and a morality are beginning to take rdot and thrive; thus threatening the very foundations of our society and the welfare of the nation, THEREFORE, the National Association of Evangelicals proposes and endorses six courses of action,, to wit: I. The enactment of suitable legislation by the Congress of the United States, in the form of an amendment to the Federal Costitution which will strengthen the present provision for the free exercise of religion in our national ' life and allow reference to, belief in, reliance upon, or invoking the aid of God, in sny govern*' mental or public document proceeeding, activity, ceremony, sctepl-or institution. 11. The affirmation of the public school’s duty to do full justice to the large place of the Judeo-Christian tradition in our . American heritage. There should be in all areas of subject matter an objective presentation of the contribution made by the Christian faith to the development of that heritage. 111. The respectful teaching of the Bible as history and/or literature as an integral part of the public school curriculum. IV. The full academic freedom for Christian teachers to teach from a Christian standpoint and to witness by example and personal lift to the effects of Christian commitment. V. The development of a sltrong sense of responsibility on the part of Christian parents for the religious education of their children. We call upon parents to conduct dajly periods of family devotions and Bible reading in the home and to give every possible encouragement to the development ot their moral and spiritual nature. VI. The active resistance to any hositlity toward a religiously based view of life as it may apresistance may involve personal pear in the public schools. This sacrifice by Christian parents and Christian teachers and in some cases may require the establishment of Christian day schools to safeguard the American Christian heritage. Believing that ours is a nation under God and remembering the divine promise, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, “the National Association of Evangelicals commits itself to the foregoing courses of action and will seek to promote them as widely and effectively as possible.
