At Milwaukee
The Northern Baptists assembled at Milwaukee in the full year of Fundamentalism. Naming a dozen leading universities, Dr. Riley of Minneapolis said: "When today you call the roll of these schools you name the captains of the hosts of Hell. They marshal their forces to fight the authority of the Book, the blood atonement and every Christian fundamental. . . . Satan is busy. . . . Our refusal to cackle over every discovery of dinosaur eggs 10,000,000 years old or to enthuse over Science, falsely socalled, has led some men to name us ignoramuses . . . but is it not well to remember that Christ of the Fundamentalists is to this hour 'the light of the world'?"
