'''Back to [[THOUGHTS FOR THE QUIET HOUR]]'''
----
<p>God help this nation if it be drifting to <strong>secularism!</strong> Our <br />
people may be made <strong>giants in intellect</strong>; but severed <br />
from the religious element, divorced from religious training, <br />
the chances are they may become <strong>demons in depravity!</strong><br />
<br />
Where, moreover, are remedy and panacea to be found <br />
for the anguished heart in its time of sorrow? <br />
<br />
<strong>Philosophy and science</strong>, noble factors as they are, can <br />
never heal the wounds of humanity, erase the furrows <br />
from the woe-worn brow, or light up the shadows of the <br />
final valley. They can never curb the madness of the <br />
nations, subjugate the demon of war, and &quot;ring in the <br />
thousand years of peace.&quot; <br />
<strong><br />
  Remove the Bible from school and university</strong>, and <br />
in that saddest of battles, the struggle of conflicting <br />
principles, where the godless and Christ-less creed is <br />
the triumphant one, there can be nothing but the<br />
death-knell.
