tional youth newspaper, spoke on
The Crisis of Europe's Youth"
at the semester's first all-University
convocation.
The youth of Europe, he point
ed out, must not be blamed for
their loss of faith. They are the
victims of a crisis for wheh they
were in no way responsible.
Previous Belief
Before the war, Mirejovsky ex
plained, Europeans were educated
to believe that man is basically
a decent being who goes through
stages of development to a suc
cessful and happy life. The pres
ent generation, he said, does not
accept these convictions. Its
young people see that science,
which can make life so much
easier, can also create tremen
dous complications in modern so
ciety. They have seen the terrible
changes that power can make in
men; they have been even more
conscious of the changes that
hunger can bring.
"Young Europeans have been
faced with so many different con
ceptions of truth and justice that
they have lost their confidence
in these and other moral and
spirit notions," the minister de
clared. Masses Lose Faith
For the" great masses of work
ing people and the intelligentsia
life has very little meaning. With
them the church has lost ground,
because it took its message too
long for granted.
"Now," Mirejovsky said, "the
church is on its way to repent
encc. It is reaching out to bring
hope to the hopeless to the man
in the slums and in the factories
to the young fellow who doesn't
believe in anything and just
smiles at what he is told.
"Youth work is growing," he
said, "not rapidly, but it is bring
ing results. The uneasiness is
still there, but the effort being
made by the churches is bringing
greater certainty that life is
worthwhile."
Requires Courage
Religion is not so often taken
for granted as previously, he told
the group. It is now something
which requires courage and the
strength to defend personal con
victions against non-believers.
The solidity of American churches
and their gifts of money and
supplies have done much to
brighten the situation of Euro
pean youth, Mirejovsky said.
He explained that the popular
ity of Communism at the present
time is due chiefly to the fail
ure of democracy to have a posi
tive program to offer nations. The
churches' position, the minister
believes, must be not as an in
strument of any political group;
its duty is to state the message
of Christ.
Mirejovsky is touring this
country to consult with students
and leaders on the activities and
program of American church
youth. His appearance on this
campus was sponsored by the
convocations committee and the
Religious Welfare council.
