Why and how people can condemn present day morality while they continue to ignore moral ethics in their personal behavior? Why nd how can any one exaggerate a partial truth at the risk having a whole truth disbelieved? Why, in fact, is the Simple truth forgotten that an- untruth pleases the deviland the truth pleases God? Why so many people know so many rules in baseball, football and other games and can not recite even half the rules in the 10 commandments?
