LEFT-WING BLAKE HONORED BY LEFT-WING WORLD COUNCIL OF CHURCHES From The Ridge Citizen By way of The Columbia Record we have come across information of some of the action that was taken by the World Council of Churches which met recently in Geneva. Noting that the council was ap parently more concerned with worldly problems than with spiritual pronouncements, the Record notes: “One of its actions was the condemnation of the U. S. for its ‘massive and growing mili tary presence in Viet Nam,’ charging that the Americans aggravated ill feeling between the races. “A resolution blamed Britain for failing to turn the govern ment of Rhodesia over to its black majority. In other words, it chastised Britain for not mounting war against the white-ruled African country. Another resolution advocated sexual freedom and endorsed contraceptive methods for ex tra-martial intercourse. It at tacked traditional church doc trines on chasity and fidelity.. “Fillowing the pattern of several Amerncan denomina tions, the conference approved violence and law defiance as 'an ultimate recourse’ for soc ial change. In many quarters this has been interpreted to be a Christian license to steal, burn, kill and plunder. “The devout spiritual pro nouncements, if any, were not reported. ” This is the same Wirld Coun cil of Churches and the same meeting thereof in Geneva which elected Eugene Carson I Blake its general secretary. The Record notes that Blake, a rival of M. L. King for a place in the revolutionary lime light, is the same one who of fered during the Eisenhower administration a quick solution to segregation in the south. Says the Record: “He pro posed that the President order the Army to attack white Southeners with bayonets. The butchery, he figured, would bring about a quick conversion to racial integration. He went on to identify himself with civil disobedience and got _himself arrested before the television cameras for defying local laws.” (Note—Members of Aveleigh Presbyterian church, Central Methodist church, Church of The Redeemer and other local churches, are contributing weekly to this smelly outfit by their church contributions.) $20 Down—$20 Month.
