WE TURN THIS AFTERNOON TO THIS SUBJECT AS TO WHY WE ARE HERE. That may seem to be a strange subject, but those who are seeking to influence the minds of our youth and the college youth of our nation with the very objective, started a symposium a little over a year ago which has gone through a great number of Eastern Colleges. And they made it available to practically all of the students on the campus to participate in this symposium. And the physiologists and philosophers who were supposedly leading the staff, set this symposium into action both in New York and in Harvard University and other Eastern States. They said this is most essential for a proper foundation of philosophy and for social science and for an understanding of political philosophy. Thus they started this symposium as to ‘why we are here.’

Shortly after that several denominations of Christendom who had heard of this symposium, thought that they would add to this, the subject ‘Why we are here.’ And I heard about the content of the first symposium which was taught to bring about a social revolution which is being used today to rape your nation and your faith. I was equally disturbed by the fact that the churches had decided to put out a pamphlet to answer this ‘Why we were here.’ And then seemed to have such a little understanding of why they were here as well. In fact, while one was built with agnosticism, the other was built with the frustration of not knowing what it was all about anyhow. And it seemed to be the purpose of being here, was to keep everyone from being caught up in some terrible torture when they die. And that seems to be a rather silly objective anyhow. So one is almost as superstitiously sad as one was agnostically evil.
