(p. 1778) Jesus , The religion of Jesus is the most dynamic influence ever to activate the human race. (p. 1091) What an awakening the world would experience if it could only see Jesus as he really lived on earth and know, firsthand, his life-giving teachings! (p. 2083) Science , Science, guided by wisdom, may become man's great social liberator. (p. 909) Mortal man is not an evolutionary accident.
