Abstract
If "only the fool says in his heart there is no God," the contemporary world is harboring countless simpletons. Where decades ago only a minority or rancid skeptics and confused "philosophers" admitted their agnosticism and atheism, today sincere people, as well as the more egregious moderns, are quite frank in proclaiming their disbelief in a Supreme Being. Syndicated newspaper columns, novels, radio addresses, and even political speeches take up the cudgels of the new humanism ·where the modern philosophical treatises leave off. The widely read Mr. Walter Lippmann states that the common man "feels that those who claim to be open minded about God have for all practical purposes ceased to believe in Him."
