(Original signed by) R.D. Carman, Clerk of the Executive Council fa Religion Narcissistic i.• attitude affects society BY CAPTAIN V1ENDY JOHNSTONE THE SALVATION ARMY "Do your own thing!" This has been the motto of many generations. In fact, it seems to have been the motto of mankind since the beginning of time. Sin entered our world because the first created human beings chose to "do their own thing" rather than to obey God. The Old Testament gives us an interesting look at this trend, particularly in the Book of Judges. Judges 21:25 informs us that "In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.". Throughout the entire Book of Judges, we see this cycle in the behavior patterns of mankind. The cycle goes like this: 1) Obe- dience to God, 2) Turning away from God, 3 ) 'Doing their own thing', 4) Havoc and riicactpr reigning throughout the land, 5) Begging for God's assistance out of their many predicaments, 6) God's intervention on their behalf, 7) Peace returning. The cycle would be repeated many times over as -each generation did "that which was right in their own eyes". Essentially, each person, or family, was "doing their own thing"! A chaotic situation indeed. No central authority. Problems piled on top of pro- blems. Rampant sin. Sexual immorality. The decline of a nation. Have you looked around at our own world lately? Have you read the newspaper or watched the evening news? What do you see? A chaotic situation indeed. No central authority. Problems upon problems. Ram- pant sin. Sexual immorality. The decline of a nation. Have you looked at our town lately? Lets, look more closely — let's be honest.,Under a facade of goodness we find problems piled upon problems. Rampant sin. Sexual im- morality. The decline of a community, You see, essentially mankind has not changed over the centuries. We remain the type of people who want to have their. own way, to "do our own thing". We ignore the promptings of God's Word and -of His Holy Spirit. Many people think that's an O.K. way to believe if it makes you happy. For this attitude our community and our nation and our world suffers. War. Ter- rorism. Disease. Famine. Destruction. Dic- tatorship governments. Crime. The breakdown of family and traditional values. Problems piled upon problems. Maybe we should consider doing an honest evaluation of our own motives and our ensu- ing action. Are we "doing our own thing" or are we doing things God's way? Knowledge diffused throughout society leaders often contradict laws in the eyes of children. Using the world as an educational system, the child should be taught to view himself as a world citizen. That way, the child could help develop world peace, which he sees as the next stage in the evolution of the planet. "The Great Peace towards which people of good will throughout the centuries have inclined their hearts, of which seers and poets for countless generations have ex- pressed their vision and for wphich from age to age the sacred scriptures of mankind have constantly held the promise, is now at long last within the reach of the nations." "For the first time in history, it is possible for everyone to view the entire planet, with all its myriad diversified peoples, . in one perspective. World peace is not only possi- ble but inevitable," he said. Muttart said it's the choice of all people whether peace, is reached after unimaginable horrors precipitated by humanity's stubborn clinging to old patterns of behavior or by an act of consultative will. Because ignorance is the main reason for prejudice and the decline and fall of nations, universal education deserves the utmost support of all the governments of the world, Edward Muttart told a public meeting on peace held by the Baha'i community in Goderich last week. "The decision-making agencies involved would do well to consider giving first priori- ty to the education of women and girls since it is through educated mothers that the benefits of knowledge can be most effective- ly and rapidly diffused throughout society," he quoted from a statement on peace from the Universal House of Justice, the highest elected body of the Baha'i faith. He said that children should be instructed that laws, spiritual, physical, civil and parental, are a precious gift for our sense of order, security and predictability and makes the world liveable. Children should also be told that the human race has passed through evolu- tionary stages of life from infancy and childhood and is• now in the period of adolescence, approaching its long-awaited coming of age - A teacher for the Montessori schools, Mut- tart said the first step in educating the total child is finding a model of the Great Educator of humanity. To do this, he looked at the "spiritual luminaries" brought to mankind through world religions. The teachings of these messengers of various faiths give eternal laws which lead to a greater civilization and peace. But, when laws such as "Thou shall not kill" is constantly broken, the result is a loss of freedom. When the prospect of anarchy and terrorism is escalating daily such as to- day, the freedom to travel to certain places, live in many parts of the world and to have order, security and predictability in our lives is taken away, he said. As well, inconsistency in relating with children produces a lack of trust and loss of respect. If a parent says no one time and yes, another time, the parent is.really lying, he said. Muttart said children should be taught to obey laws since disobeying actually means losing our freedoms.
