La Revue De Research Articles

The Church and the National Conference Program

IN recent issues of La Revue de Gendve, a Swiss political and literary monthly, have been published opinions of six representative men, of as many nationalities, on future of Europe.* Five of these men, each of whom is distinguished as a philosopher or as a literary critic, insist on world's need of moral or religious regeneration. It is in self-surrender that we find ourselves, says Frenchman. Political and social question are less important than moral questions,,, he adds. Is conscience of Europe dead? that is the sole ques? tion that really matters,,, cries Russian in a brief statement, which in itself is an awful arraignment of philosophy of Bolsheviki. As if by way of rejoinder, Englishman says meditatively, soul of Europe languishes and the future of body depends upon that of soul?the spirit is helpless unless it has faith.
