The Eunamentalist Controversy asHiinied an international flavour, when Aljsses Cbristobel and Emmaline I’aukburst took up the cudgels against the .Modernists. .Miss Cbristobel, speaking, said: "I associate modernism with the “old I’ogvism” of the eighteenth eenury. No genuine scientist will controvert the Bible. Jesus is the only real modernist.” The speaker incidentally confessed her own disallusioninent concerning the goodness of humanity and its reformability. “I am still a political, but 1. have abandoned worldly politics for the politics of God.
