IS TH#RE A RULE BOOK FOR SUCCESSFUL LIVING Of the thovsands of species and millions of sub-species of living things created by God, homo sapiens (meaning people) is the only species that is given the power to decide what kind of life to live and the mental ability to form opinions as to what is right and wrong. In technical language this means that we have free will and other living things do not, For many years now the top-drawer intellectuals have been arguing with each other whether or not the Creator had any particular pattern of behaviour in mind for us or whether He just dumped us down on this planet to see what sort of life we be hae work cur for ourselves, Some of the intellectuals who believe that no plan exists also believe that no God exists; so their viewpoint is not hard to understand, The authors of this piece are not near- ly smart enough to get into this argument on an equal basis with the intellectuals, but in our own humble way, we are deply convinced that when God created us, He saw to it that we got.an instruction book containing the rules of how we should live in order to get the most out of life. This instruction book is the Bible, and we are personally convinced that these rules can be figured out by anyone with an ordin- ary amount of common sense, Redueing these rules to the level of every day behaviour of ordinary people, we believe that the following is so obviously true that it does not need the backing of any authority except personal experience. We believe it is self-apparent that if man is to have peace and prosperity: there is no substitube for personal freedom there is no substitute for personal progress there is no substitute for personal property there is no substitute for the free market there is no substitute for an honest day's work there is no substitute for honest money there is no substitute for a balanced PUBESS there is no substitute for yoluntary cooperation, there is no substitute ie ae love of onets neighbor, Phe there is no substitute for faith in God, We believe that the right Kind. of study of the history of mankind-a study of his moral, economic, and political behavirur would show that when we ignore these re- quirements, the consequences are depression (cont. on next col.) Page 9 i IS THERE A RULE ROOK FOR SUCCESSFUL LIVING (cont. ) poverty, war, and loss of liberty. We furthermore believe that such a study of history would show that the people who deny that these ingredients are essential to peace, prosperity, and liberty (and work against them) do not want mankind to have peace, prosperity, and liberty.
