At this season of the year we draw close to good friday. all the eyes of the world will turn back to "a green hill far away, without a city wall," where the founder of christianity was crucified by those forces of selfishness, greed, and lust for gain that are still at work in the world. it seems to me that unless we do something in canada about the question of the export of war materials there will be another crucifixion - the crucifixion of a generation of young men, crucified upon a cross of nickel.

The resurrection is the keystone of the arch on which our faith is supported. if christ has not risen, we must impeach all those witnesses for lying. if christ has not risen, we have no proof that the crucifixion of jesus differed from that of the two thieves who suffered with him. if christ has not risen, it is impossible to believe his atoning death was accepted.

The answer is never the answer. what's really interesting is the mystery. if you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. i've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. so they stop thinking. but the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

The utter failure came at the crucifixion in the tragic words, 'my god, my god, why hast thou forsaken me?' if you want to understand the full tragedy of those words you must realize what they meant: christ saw that his whole life, devoted to the truth according to his best conviction, had been a terrible illusion. he had lived it to the full absolutely sincerely, he had made his honest experiment, but it was nevertheless a compensation. on the cross his mission deserted him. but because he had lived so fully and devotedly he won through to the resurrection body.
