Bishop Pike Declares
Seeds. of Hatred Often
Planted by Churches
Bishop James A. Pike charges
that the seeds of racial and
religious hatred are often
planted by the churches them-
selves by "what they teach,
what they fail to. teach, and
what they are."
Writing in the new issue of
Look Magazine, Bishop Pike,
the Episcopal Bishop of Cali-
fornia, declared that many peo-
ple responsible for acts of hate
are church members.
"The sad and shocking truth
is that the roots of bias often
reach babk to the pulpit and
the Sunday School class," the
bishop noted.
He cited numerous examples
from religious -text books cur-
rently under study in which
anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic, and
anti-Protestant feelings can be
aroused by exaggerated or mis-
leading interpretations of the
Bible and of history. Bishop
Pike cited some distorted 'ac-
counts of the role of the Jews
in the crucifixion of Christ.
Addressing himself then to
the general problem of discrimi--
nation by church members, he
said: "It is disgraceful that
people are being barred from
neighborhoods and clubs - on a
baSis that would have barred
Jesus Himself—due in strong
measure to the influence of His
own church. It is distressing
that regular church members
are agents of segregation. And
it is shameful that the rift
of the Reformation is being
widened by some churches."
