CAMPUS COMMUNITY

In search of the green

By Inge Dorsey

The January boom for financial aid seems to have subsided. That leaves me to finally face the mountain of paperwork and filing. These are the much less glamerous duties of the financial aid advisor.

Anyway, on to more important financial aid news. I am seeking the wisdom of the students on suggestions for changes to the Canada Student Loans Program. Are there any areas of the pro- gram you woul dlike to know more about? Are you pleased with the system? Are there’any areas of the system you would like to see changed? Anyone who has thoughts on this topic will have a chance to immortalize them in ink anytime between February 12th and February 28th, by filling out a

brief suggestion sheet either in the Library Lounge or the Dept. of Student Services.

If anyone would like to see me I can be found at the Dept. of Student Services, first floor Main Building, Tues. 11:00 am. — 3:00 p.m., Wed. 11:00 a.m. — 1:00 p.m., Thurs. 11:30 a.m. — 3:00 p.m. or by calling 566-0647.

Over the years, people have thought that it is impossible for science and religion to agree or tanding. A large part of this problem has been due to the methods em- ployed by scientists and religion-

come to a mutual uni

ists in their quest for truth.

Human knowledge is based upon four kinds of proofs: (1) sense perception; (2) reasoning faculty; (3) traditional or scriptoral authority; (4) the medium of inspiration. Each of these criteria or standards of judgement in which the human mind reaches its conclusions are faulty and inac- curate. They are all liable to error. But a statement presented to the mind, supported by proofs, which the senses percieve to be correct, which reasoning can accept, which is in accord with traditional authority and which is sanctioned by the promptings of the heart can be relied upon as correct, because it has met all the criteria, been proved and tested and found to be complete. However, when only one of the above mentioned criteria has been utilized by itself, alone, the conclusions reached can be dangerous because it ignores either the knowledge of the es- sence of a thing or the knowledge of it qualities.

Materialistic philosophers have stated that God does not exist because it cannot be percieved by our sense (e.g. sight, touch, etc). Religionist * have stated that cert- tain aspects of science are incor- tect because it does not corres-

pond with their scriptures. Each of these arguments fail to acknow- ledge one or more of the criteria or standards of judgement. In each argument either the human

elem

is ignored or the dis- coveries of the past are ignored.

A cardinal principle of the Baha’i Faith is that science and

Baha’i ana’ religion must be in agreement and harmony. This not only cludes what sn the past were seen as conflicts (e.g. creation) but the methods employed for discover- ing what is latent within us. Shoghi Effend, the Guardina of the Baha’i Faith has written, “The Revelation proclaimed by Bah

deliberate search and struggle, but at the same time, they are “ than your life vein.””
