To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

Mr. Stanton's answer to my letter concerning college students and religion has misrepresented my position. How long has it been good policy to reply to a man by ignoring his main contention and attacking another man?

Mr. Stanton seems to fear that belief in the supernatural may lead to muddled thinking. Although the supernatural in religion is known through the religious experience the supernatural in revelations is an historical problem. That callege training which Mr. Stanton mentions might be employed to better advantage in estimating historical evidence than in passing snap judgments on Biblical problems without any knowledge of the Bible.
