-
Some
political
commentators,
on
the
r
air
and
in
print,
are
saying
that
religion
has
no.
place
in
poll-.
,
tics.
This
is
an
old
claim
of
some
pietists
who
would
restrict
faith
to
the
private
spherej
but
it's
contrary
to
the
teachings
of
the
major
historic
'churches..
It's
also
"non-biblical
and
untheological,"
says
Rev.
;
Donald
Shriver,
president
of
UnionTheologicalSeminaryin
New
York,
the
oldest
interdenominational'
educational
.
institution
in
the
United
States.
"Biblical
faith
includes
both
dimensions,
the
'personal'
and
'
the
social.
This
is
way
beyond
debate
in
Christian
thought
;
today!"
What
brought
the
issue
to
the
forefront
is
the

of

As

the

To
Niebuhr,
the:
great
"dangerto
the'church
was
its
.failure
to
involve
itself
in
the
contentious
issues
of
American
common
life,
writes
Dr.
Ronald
IL
Stone
of
Pittsburgh
Theological
Seminary.
"He
spent,
his
life
trying
to
find
ways
to
articulate
the
relevance
of
the
Gospel
to
American
social
problems."
Niebuhr
castigated
the
churches
for
complacency
in;
treating:,
religion
as
a
"separate
existence"
of
private
piety
apart
from
struggles
for
political
justice.
He
said,
"In
a
sense,
a
religious
viewpoint
is
relevant
to
all
the
moral
problems'
of'
the
individual;and
society,"
A
tough-minded.
realist,
he
spurned
the
onetime
social
optimism
that
education
and
progress
eventually,
would
bring
Utopia.
He
maintained
that
humanity's
corrupt
impulses,
always
flawe'd
time:
bound
history
with
tragic
ambiguity,
and
that
only
beyond
it
lay
the
hope
of
God's
full
righteousness,
but
that
pursuing
the
ideal
was
humanity's
responsibility
and
the
main
spur
to
advance.
For
a
time,
after
the
midr
20th
century,
so-called
''evangelicals"
and
religious
"social:
activists"
argued
,
over
whether
churches
should
apply
teachings
to
contempor-.-ary
public
issues.
.But
the
conflict
largely
has
dissolved
'
partly
due
to
Niebuhr!s
influence
iwith
many
"evangelicals''
now
also
stressing
the
implementation
of
biblical
principles
in
the
social
sphere.
To
imply
that
Niebuhr-wanted
to
keep
religious
influ-:
ences
put
of
politics
"is
a
huge
misrepresentation
of
Niebuhr,'
'-says
Dr.
Shriver.
"His
whole
career
as
a
person
contradicted
the
divorcing
of
'
personal
aspects
of
the
Gospel
from
its
social
'
implications'.
His
life
and
work
were.'
a
.continual
interplay
of
politics
and
theology."
