Lord Cobham's Address
Sir.—Lord Cobham’s address to youth leaders in Auckland is well worth taking notice of. First of all, the war of nerves would cease if God or spiritual love permeated every activity. Humanity is still fully occu- . pied to realise its ambition to rise above the other chap, instead of. as Lord Cobham put it. to defeat the lower inherited instincts. Are children allowed to lift themselves above the moral weaknesses of their parents or teachers or schoolmaster without being disinherited or shunned? We have measures and weights for material goods and abide by them, and calendars. What about moral values? These are coloured by the self-interest of nations, societies, political groups, and religions, who until now have not learned to submit themselves to the truth or law of God.—Yours, etc.. BUT I SAY UNTO YOU . . . April 26. 1961.
