Leiper Warns Of Dangers To Religion
Dr Leiper, secretary of the World Council of Guides, warned a large audience at the Garden Theater on the college campus that democracy survives only if religious forces uphold conviction and mental ideals. He argued totalitarian regimes use religion as an instrument to control worship and education, while democracies must defend free worship. The talk referenced persecution through history and closed with a Penn quote about governance by God or tyranny. The program featured songs by David C. Stevens and Howard Puimber, and next week’s assembly will highlight AAFTC talent at the college.
