Americans Identify With
Religion, Not Nationality
Protestantism and Its notions
of what America is about is In
danger because now It Is equally
acceptable to be Catholic or Jew.

The Rev. Llndeman elaborated
on this point stating that In Uie
formation     of   America, Prot-
Cathollclsm and Judaism were
unpopular beliefs. Now that It
Is socially acceptable tobeProt¬
estant, Catholic or Jew, Protes¬
tants are facing Uie threat of
losing   their   founding  beliefs.
The speaker discussed ways In
which religion can be criticized
for conforming too much.
Citing readings by Martin E.
Marty, associate editor of the
Christian Century, and Will Her¬
berg, author, the Rev. Llndeman
said that Marty critlclzesAmer-
lcan religion from a point that
Is similar to Vance Packard's
author, and contemporary soci¬
ological critics. Marty Is dis¬
content with the status of relig¬
ion and concerned In particular
with Uie trend of believing In be¬
lieving Instead of believing In
God. He maintains that religion
Is  empty, utilitarian  and man-
s religion so they may remain   wards,
Herberg maintains that Uie
reason a person belongs to a
faith has nothing to do with Uie
historical value of th.it faith but
because of the need to maintain
personal Identity. The content of
religion today Is sociologi¬
cal—the American Image. Reli¬
gion now Is not the religion of
grandfather's day.
•We have become victims of
soclaloglcal development and In
the process have lost the con¬
tent of Uie religious past." said
the Rev. Llndeman.
This Is why 97 per cent of
Americans Identify themselves
as religious, according to the
Rev. Llndeman. They also think
of themselves as Catholic, Jew-

It should perhaps be pointed out

from 1 to 2 PM was simply an

meeting was presented mainly by
Dr. Chlttlck, a faculty member
at Fresno State College. The In¬
formation he gave came from a
report of the Ad Hoc Committee
of the Academic Senate of the
University of California at Berk¬

Llndeman. As a result of the con¬

A special "Inquiry Training
Program* Is being conducted In
Uie Laboratory School on campus
under the direction of Mr. Harold
Sllvanl, a primary teacher at tho
school,  and  Dr. George Avery
Ten children from Uie lab
school and 10 culturally dis¬
advantaged children from Uie
west side of town participate In
this voluntary program. The chil¬
dren, fifth and sixth graders,
meet at the lab school every Wed¬
nesday from 4 to 5 PM.
A short film depleting a sci¬
ence experiment which raises a
problem Is shown toUiechUdren.
The children then attempt to solve
Uie problem by asking questions
to Mr. Sllvanl who teaches Uie
class. But, Sllvanl can only
answer Uie quesUons yes or no.
The children then through a rea¬
soning period may Indicate a
solution anytime and present
their theory.
■The sessions are conducted

youngsters
training In California and many
other parts of the country. The
method has been In California
for about three years.
This project Is In cooperation
with Arthur Carlson, director of
compensatory education program
for Fresno City schools.
•It Is also hoped," said Dr.
Avery, "the children from the
west side will profit from Uie
project by their environment with
the children from Uie lab school.
These children from Lincoln Ele¬
mentary School have not had the
advantage of the other children,
particularly in Uie home which
prevents them to profit from their
school education as well as Uie
other children."
The experiment was used last
year and Dr. Avery said that it
was very effective.
s they \
said Dr. Avery,
According to Dr. Avery Uie
purpose Is to develop not only
I bettor questions but
pdevelop more effec¬
tive thinking.
The actual Inquiry Method pro¬
gram was Initialed, organized and
researched by Dr. Richard Such-
man, Director of the Illinois Stud¬
ies in Inquiry Training. He has
conducted workshops in service
Uie way these children come in
after school and devote their
time. He likes to see their in¬
terest and participation in Uie
program and plans on having a
more extensive program next
semester In cooperation with Uie
principal, Dr. David Ilalmbach.
•As Uie experiment continues
the children become more In¬
terested in testing their theories
and become quite excited," he
said.
Each film has a single science
concept. "Only science Alms are
being shown so tar but eventually
they wUl extend into other areas.
Concluding his statement Dr.
Avery said, "This is one of Uie
greatest   recent   Innovations of
