APRIL 26. 1968 THE DE KALB DAILY CHRONICLE, DE KALB. ILLINOIS NEA SUPERSONIC DEFENDER of North America, this F-104 Starfighter and scores of others from the Aerospace Defense Command could be off runways in minutes and heading toward an invader at more than twice the speed of sound. Armed with missiles and cannon, the F-104 Is part of the arsenal made available to the North American Air Defense Command. Given Verbal Spanking Religion in America By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International "In every age, the young have cast about for new stigmas with which to beat the old dogmas.

Now the dogmas themselves are being sloughed off." That capsule comment on the current vogue of radical theology comes from Dr. Albert C. Outler of the Perkins School of Theology in Dallas. Outler is a Methodist theologian of international repute. And he's one of the very.

few men I know who manages to be both witty and profound when he talks about theology. He was at Princeton Theological Seminary in New Jersey last week, participating with about 50 other U.S. and European scholars in a seminar on Steps for Church and Theology." Many of the young rebels of contemporary radical theology were in the group, and Outler took advantage of the opportunity to give them a verbal spanking. He began by saying that young theologians are expected to do a certain amount: of ranting against traditional doctrines because "novelty is the spice of theological life. is new in the current situation is the zealous and dedicated iconoclasm.

that has come to dominate the temper and tone of the theological newcomers." he said. The young radicals have gone beyond constructive criticism and reformulation of ancient doctrines, and appear to be engaged in "a deliberate rejection of traditional Christianity as such." He noted, however, that even the most enthusiastic iconoclasts have displayed "a curious brinkmanship, a hesitation before the final consequence of their repudiations. "Why stop with 'Christian atheism' when honest-to-God disbelief is livelier: and less ambiguous?" he asked. "Why propose radical church reform and then balk at putright disestablishment (which would, of course, mean the end of tax exemptions)? What hinders the secularizers from reforming 'the church' into a federation of service He suggested that some radicals are not quite as disbelieving as their flamboyant statements have led the public to think. But their proclaimed skepticism has had a deadly impact, he said.

"Increasing numbers of 'modern' men have been persuaded that traditional Christianity does not merit their serious attention. Thus far, precious few have been recovered for Christianity by the iconoclasts." Fortunately, Outer said, are signs that the iconoclastic fury is waning and that the pendulum is beginning to swing the other way. He observed that one of the more-publicized de a't of -God theologians, Dr. William Hamilton, "has promised Himself more homework before further obituary notices," and Prof. Thomas J.J.

Altizer "has begun to talk about the delty in terms that either deny its death or affirm its inexplicable resurrection. Outler voiced hope that when theologians are through playing the game of "I can say more shocking things than' you," they will get back to the serious work of trying to find meaningful. contemporary answers to the questions which confront every generation the fundamental questions which arise from "man's irrepressible awarness of the holy," his Reynolds Is Married On Saturday MAPLE PARK E-3 Thomas Reynolds, son of Mrs. Neva Reynolds of Maple Park, presently. stationed at the naval base in Long Beach, was married on Saturday, April 20, to Patricia Riggens, daughter and Mrs.
