QUESTIONS ON CHRISTIANITY
\WHEN Christian Question Box first went on the air last July, Peter Cape, who is-in charge of NZBS religious broadcasts, said that the aim of the session was to ask, and answer, blunt questions about the Christian faithquestions that people who have thought about the Church and faith would like to ask the clergy. "The sort of questioner we have in mind might not go to church at all, or if he does might not feel inclined to put such questions to his minister." he said.
A new series of Question Box discussions being heard from YA stations at 8.30 p.m, on Thursdays ranges even more widely than those heard last year. Among the questions being discussed are: How will God judge the scientists who make and explede atomic bombs? Why do men who say they are Christians and maintain God’s laws go to war intending to kill and maim when the Commandment says "Thou Shalt
Not Kill"? How can I convince someone I love very much that God exists when he answers that the scientific éxplanation of the Universe is sufficient? In the new series of Question Box, which was produced in Christchurch, the speakers are the Dean of Christchurch, the Very Rev. Martin Sullivan, Father Meagher, §.J., the Rev. Peter Stead, of Edgewate Road Methodist Church, and the Rev. Dr George MacLeod, Leader of the Iona Community.
