Work of two University men ap-
pears in a recent book carrying
the papers of The National Con-
ference of Science, Philosophy,
and Religion, entiled "Approaches
to Group Understanding."
Prof. Roy W. Sellars, of the
philosophy department, w r i t e s
chapter 56 on "The Conditions of
Cultural Syncretism," and Dr. Ed-
ward W. Blakeman, research con-
sultant in religious education,
writes chapter 60 on "Cultural
Bridges in Religion."
Prof. Sellars urges fuller coop-
eration between leaders in science
and the philosophers. He also
says: "Philosophy of religion made
me familiar with cultural anthro-
pology and the history of religion."
He maintains that the philosopher
stands for universalism on the
base of reason and experience.
Christianity has done much, Prof.
Sellars says, to reenforce such uni-
versalism. "Science and humani-
tarianism, the self-respect of large
numbers of people, and their de-
mand for justice qualify the pres-
ent. In this time of cultural syn-
cretism. on a world scale what is
needed is tolerant controversy."
Dr. Blakeman writes of the ne-
cessity for Christianity and sci-
ence to adjust their agencies, and
says: "The bridge builder is most
needed in the two extremes of
higher education, (1) in the great
state universities where religion
and art are overshadowed by sci-
ence and vocationism, and (2) in
the church-sponsored colleges and
seminaries where science often is
