Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Devil in Cap and Gown: An Examination of an Article Published in the February Issue of the Biblical World, by Lucius Hopkins Miller, of Professor* Of Biblical Instruction, Princeton University The Devil in Cap and Gown. The Devil, squirming and wriggling in "cap and gown," has been permitted and allowed, by some inconceivable miscalculation - or inscrutable lack of vigilance - on the part of those in authority to undulate himself into the chair of "Biblical Instruction" in one of our great universities. In that officially protected position, assuming a human form, and controlling - so, at least, it would seem - a personality that is perhaps unconscious of his dominance, he is, either with or without the knowledge and consent of the Regents, deliberately palming himself off as a religious instructor of youth. Though cleverly clad in scholastic garb, he is without ability to conceal his identity, which is fully disclosed by a nasty and offensive trail that he has recently made. The Devil, in every age, under all circumstances, in whatsoever cloak and domino, is the Devil always, with no sign, no stamp, not even a streak of originality. During the six thousand years of his sleepless activity he has been pounding on the same old bell, and the tedious and tiresome recurrence of the one monotonous tintinnabulation is irritating usque ad nauseam.
