Stanley Jones Noted Missionary And Author Very Effective "Religion answers the one question science catmot: 'where did it all come from?'" declared Dr. E. Stanlev Jones, in an address to University of Soith Carolina students in chapel this morning. Doctor Jones, internationally knowi author, lecturer and missionary, spoke on the subject, "What Are Modern People to Believe." "Religion needs all the methods of science to carry out its calling to humanity, and science needs the prin ciples of religion to direct its great energies," Doctor Jones contintied. "Science creates all the instruments for the perfection of humanity. but it aiso creates bombs for the destruction of humanity," lie said. Doctor Jones said that for people to believe that there was no Supreme Being was to accept the belief that the atoms which compose the universe were drawn together by mathematical chance. "The figures on the chance of such a phenomenon would extend around the earth approximately 35 times," Doctor Jones contiintied. 11tinian beings may (lecide what course they will follow, but they do not decide what the result will be, lhe speaker dleclaredl. lIn conclutding he expressed the belief that although liIitler is attempting to subjugate all Europe andl the world, lhe will suc ceedl only ini breakinig down all the nat ionalistic barriers in EuropIe.
