183: SUMMER SCHOOLS (BAHA'I ATMOSPHERE IN)

"He (the Guardian) thinks the less time spent on such topics as 'Current

Events in the light of the Baha'i Faith', and 'The Baha'i Faith and Modern

Science' the better. There is no harm in having an evening lecture by a

qualified speaker once on each of these subjects, but he certainly does

not feel that much time should be spent on them, for the very simple

reason that there is so little that can be said on the subject."

"The Baha'is must realize that they belong to a world-wide Order, and not

an American civilization. They must try and introduce the Baha'i

atmosphere of life and thought into their Summer Schools, rather than

making the Summer School an episode and a pleasant vacation period, during

which they learn a little more about the Faith."
