ABSTRACT
It is apparent that the adoption of such a theory as Evolution must affect the spiritual state of the person receiving it. Man’s mental and spiritual natures are intimately connected. While those in a settled previous spiritual experience may carry Evolution as “a working theory” only, those in an immature state will be vitally affected. Especially is this true of youthful minds. It is indeed a fact that many young men have started with high purposes to prepare for the ministry, and even for foreign missions, and have, after adopting these modern theories, abandoned their purpose, and thousands have abandoned all personal religion. Pastors can tell of many such instances.
