DEMOCRACY AND FAITH
REVIVAL OF RELIGIOUS LIFE. Speaking of the need for a revival of genuinely religious life, Sir Hector Hetherington, principal of Glasgow University, said in a recent address: “It is difficult for an individual to go to the trouble of saving his own soul unless he believes and is sustained by the belief that he is more than a creature of a day. We shall not be able to carry the burden of democracy, or personality, unless we are really convinced that there is something given to us that is of more importance than ourselves, and that we are expressions of a reality that is not wholly revealed in this life of time and space.”
