Fear has become a way of life
for those who live in the deter-
iorating sections of America's
urban centers.
In recent months, I have
found myself nonplussed as I
listen to friends and neighbors
talk animatedly about the
comparative merits of various
alarm systems, particularly
when the speaker climaxes his
conversation by ruefully tel-
ling how he was raiding his re-
frigerator when the police
raided his house. He had for-
gotten to turn off a motion de-
tector device before he came
downstairs.
To live in constant dread of
authority and its demand can
cripple the mind and stunt the
spirit. By the same token, to
live without any fear of exter-
nal authority, to ignore the
consequences of disobedience
and normlessness, to establish
oneself and one's desires as the
sole arbiter for right and wrong
can be equally destructive.
I offer to you a parable of our
times.
It seems that in the year
2,000, the world was still in a
state of war, violence in the
streets, - increased crime and
widespread social upheaval.
The greatest scientists of the
world met at the United Na-
tions. They were enthralled
with a new computer recently
created that could answer any
questions submitted to it, even
questions relating to complex
human problems. These scien-
tists were summoned to re-
quest an answer from this
giant computer on how to find a
solution for peace, for a de-
crease of violence, for the
elimination of corruption,
stealing and murder. After
days of assembling the proper
material to feed the computer,
the moment had come to re-
ceive an answer which would
bring stability to the world.
Scientists carefully pro-
grammed the information in
the computer and waited for
the answer.
The vast machine began to
sputter and smoke and the tape
gradually emerged. All the sci-
entists gathered around and
began to read the printout
message to the assembled
world leaders: "I am the Lord
your God who brought you out
of the land of Egypt . . . thou
shalt not murder . . . thou shalt
not steal . . . thou shalt not
bear false witness against they
neighbor . ."
