Donald W. Haynes, director
of ministries for the Western
N.C. Conference of the United
Methodist Church took up the
debate on "natural law" recently
in a guest editorial.
He says the concept which
Clarence Thomas was made to
defend in his confirmation
hearings for the U.S. Supreme
Court is simply "a long over
looked foundation stone of our
nation."
He cites, for instance, a letter
written by Thomas Jefferson:
"He who made us would have
been a pitiful bungler had he
made the rules of our moral
conduct a matter of learned
science. For every one man who
knows science, thousands don’t.
God has endowed us with a
sense of right and wrong... State
a moral case to a ploughman
and a professor. The former will
decide it as well and often bet
ter than the latter because he has

rules."
Because Jefferson believed in

'Let's Talk About It'
Haniet Beecher Stowe told an
admirer that her book Uncle
Tom's Cabin was written by
God, dictated to her. Such was
the impact of this melodramatic
and sentimental novel that some
consider it to be one of the
causes of the Civil War.
Dr. Peter Barry, History pro
fessor at USC Lancaster, was
able to define all the causes and
enlighten his audience to many
exciting facts about, what is for
some, the War of Northern
Agression, or the War between
the States.
Sun., Sept. 29, participants
again enjoyed an afternoon of
lecture and discussion on the
theme "Rebirth of a Nation",
the Landrum Branch library's
book discussion program that is
becoming so popular.
Funded by the S.C. Humani
ties Council, the book discus
sion program for adults, "Let's
Talk About It" is a series of five
lecture-discussions based on
the theme of the Civil War.
Those unable to attend on
Sept, are reminded that the next
program on the book Ordeal by
Fire, will be Sun., Oct. 6 at 3
p.m. in the Del Guercio room at
the Landrum Library. Call
457-2218 for further informa
tion.
