VOLUME 20, NUMBER 6                                                   DECEMBER 1978/JANUARY 1979


WISSEN SIE  WIE VIELE JAHRE HABEN WIR DIESE ZEITUNG HERAUSGEGEBEN?

NEIN? NINEI A lot of years in any language. Nine good years, working with you to build a strong fellowship of Christians in all branches of science and technology. Do you sense, as we do, that our Affiliations are moving into a new phase--of outreach to our non-Christian colleagues, of practical service to the Body of Christ? More good years lie ahead, at least until the Lord rolls up the calendar on his return.

Years all come approximately the same length but some seem "heavier" than others. Ginny's recovery from surgery, for which we were asking your prayers one year ago, made 1978 a light and joyful year for us. Presently we share the heaviness of many in our area deeply affected by the madness of Guyana and the San Francisco City Hall murders. Now is the time for witness. The Lord has "all the time in the world," but the existential present is the only time we have to serve him.

Once again we wish you a blessed Christmas season, grateful for our comradeship in the gospel. We think of Psalm 90, the "calendar" psalm, especially verse 12 (LB): "Teach us to number our days and recognize how few they are; help us to spend them as we should." Froliche Weihnachten. und die besten Ansche zum Jahreswechsell

CANADIANS DISCUSS "ENVIRONMENT, RESOURCES, AND RESPONSIBILITY"

-- Walt & Ginny Hearn

The Canadian Scientific and Christian Affiliation (CSCA) held its 1978 Annual Conference on November 25 at the University of Guelph in Ontario. For the CSCA, organized separately from ASA only a few years ago, it was the first time the national meeting has moved from Toronto. Although Guelph isn't very far west of Toronto, ~he step represented a beginning of a truly trans-Canadian affiliation. Besides the annual CSCA business meeting, conferees heard and discussed two significant presentations on "Environment, Resources, and Responsibility."

Gerald Vandezande, executive director of the CJL Foundation (Committee for Justice and Liberty), spoke on "Managing the Garden: Environmental Consequences of Responsible Stewardship." From his CJL post, his columns in Vanguard magazine, and his "Viewsbeat" radio show on CJRT-FM, Vandezande has spoken out on environmental, political, economic, and social policies from a Christian viewpoint. His practical understanding of Christian stewardship in the Canadian setting has been honed by active participation in such public issues as the MacKenzie Valley pipeline.

Thomas E. Ludwig, professor of psychology at Hope College in Michigan, gave the paper 'Coplng with a No-Growth Economy" he presented earlier at the ASA Annual Meeting.

From his background in theology as well as psychology, Tom analyzed deep-seated hilman drives to consume and possess. Further, he offered Scripturally-based suggestions for dealing with ourselves and for coping with economic reality on "spaceship earth."

This Newsletter goes to press too soon for a report from Guelph, but we suspect the discussions were lively. CSCA members who attended the Hope College meeting in August must have returned with as much enthusiasm as many ASA members for exercising responsible stewardship. CSCA president Daniel Osmond was one of those. His October 25 letter to the CSCA membership expressed both his own commitment to stewardship of resources and his hopes for continuing CSCA growth across Canada.

LOOKING TOWARD STANFORD IN 1979

What generated enthusiasm at ASA's Hope College meeting was not so much the theme itself as the fact that the theme touched people's lives. Looking toward the next Annual Meeting at STANFORD UNIVERSITY, AUGUST 10-13, 1979, program chair Walter R. Hearn has proposed the theme, "CHOICES WE FACE." From correspondence he has selected four issues ASA members seem concerned about at both theoretical and practical levels. The "choices we face" as scientists, citizens, and Christians in these areas will definitely affect the future:

1. WHAT KIND OF ENERGY? What are the facts about the economics and safety of nuclear energy? How feasible are solar and other "soft path" approaches? What is already happening? How will people's lives be affected? Are there "hidden agendas" in energy discussions? How should we go about making such choices?

2. THE TWISTING OF SCIENCE. Do people see science as "magic," either good or evil? Should we resist or encourage the "opening up" of science to "spirituality"? Can we teach the difference between evolution and "evolutionism," between creation and "creationism"? Can we help people detect charlatanry in such areas as "holistic health" and "psychophysics"?

3. THE PSYCHOLOGY BOOM. Why are graduate programs in psychology bursting at the seams? Do Christians who call for a "restructuring" of psychology have something concrete to offer? Are there dangers in the rapid growth of counseling and other
psychological services? How can we help "consumers" of such services to make wise choices? Are there significant differences between lay and professional counseling?

4. THIRD WORLD DILEMMAS. What programs "work" in developing countries? Why do others fail? What government policies in the U.S. and Canada should Christians back? What options are available for serving Christ overseas? What problems does an individual encounter in each of those options? How can we make intelligent choices that will benefit the Third World?

Sound interesting? If the right persons can be found to organize them, there should be a symposium in each of those areas with papers by experts. But the program committee also invites ordinary members to prepare accounts of personal experiences in any of the four areas. Have you experimented with alternative energy sources? Worked for a utility company? Tried to influence public policy? Taught sLience as it should be taught? Observed the misuse of science in the service of religion (Christian, humanist, eastern mysticism, or whatever)? Benefited from counseling? Compared psychological services? Served in a Third World country? Put "appropriate technology" to work anywhere? (Many other possibilities!)

In science/religion controversies, Christians have often made the mistake of trying to pass as experts in fields in which they have no training. We don't want to revive that in ASA! Yet we all make choices, expert or not. Our experience with those choices and their consequences can sometimes help others think through their choices --besides becoming the "raw data" for analysis by experts trained in social sciences.

The official "call for papers" should be mailed soon. To recommend someone to organize or present a paper for a symposium, or to make other program suggestions, contact: ASA Program Committee, c/o Walt Hearn, 762 Arlington Avenue, Berkeley, CA 94707.

Keynote speaker for the 1979 Annual Meeting will be ASA's own Journal editor, professor Richard H. Bube of Stanford University. He will give a series of addresses during the meeting to tie the theme together, sort out the theological from the technological aspects, and undergird the whole with Biblical insights. Who else but Dick Bube could be expected to range so wide or dig so deep? Plan now to attend--and participate.

FEBRUARY CONFERENCE ON "SCHOLARSHIP IN CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE"

Kenneth W. Hermann of the Center for Christian Studies in Champaign, Illinois, announces a conference on "Scholarship in Christian Perspective" to be held at the Center on February 24, 1979. Keynote speaker will be professor Arthur F. Holmes chair of the Philosophy Department at Wheaton College. Workshops will be held on "Ethical Issues in Science and Technology," "The Lordship of Christ in Social Science Research," and "Tensions in Humanistic Studies."

Ken says all ASA members are encouraged to attend. For a descriptive brochure on the conference and registration information, contact: Kenneth W. Hermann, Program Director, Center for Christian Studies, Box 2336, Station A, Champaign, IL 61820.

WORLD CONFERENCE ON "FAITH, SCIENCE, AND THE FUTURE"

A reader has sent us a clipping mentioning a conference to be held July 12-24, 1979, at M.I.T., Cambridge, Massachusetts, under sponsorship of the World Council of Churches. We have no other details, but suspect that ASA/CSCA ought to be represented there. The World Conference on Faith, Science, and the Future is planned to bring together 500 scientists and theologians from around the world to "explore the use of science and technology as transforming forces in the service of humanity, justice'and peace." .'ight down our alley. WCC headquarters is in New York City.

PSI, INC., SEEKS GRADUATE STUDENTS

Psychological Studies Institute, Inc., of Atlanta, Georgia, offers cooperative master's and doctor's programs in psychological counseling from a Christian perspective, the degrees being conferred by Georgia State University. "PSI provtdes a setting in which a community of dedicated professionals and students with a shared Christian faith can join together in studying the integrative application of theological and psychological principles in mental health services." To inquire about next year's class, write: The Psychological Studies Institute, 620 Peachtree St., N.E., Atlanta, GA 30308.

COUNSELING CENTER OFFERS FREE NEWSLETTER

The Life Community of Dallas, Texas, sent us some imressive publications about itself.  The Life Commmunity is a group of men and women with professional credentials in psychology and theology, "dedicated to finding God's princilples for holeness and apply
ing them to people in need. They bring to Life a personal quest and concern for a
wholeness under the lordship of Jesus Christ."

From the community's slick-looking magazine, Concernins Life,  we learned of their two programs, the Life Counseling Center and the Life Research Center. Active in research in psychology from a Christian perspective at present are Raymond F. Paloutzian and John E. Walvoord (son of the famous theologian). A larger counseling staff which provides local services on a sliding fee scale, also helps people find wholeness wherever they live through articles in a quarterly newsletter called Lifestyles.

To acquaint ASA/CSCA members with their work, The Life Community is offering any of our readers a free subscription to Lifestyles on request to: Life Counseling Center, 11500 Stevoons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75229.

HOW TO SERVE GOD OVERSEAS. No. 7

Here are some ideas from me era on how to serve God overseas - without even leaving homel 1. ASA/CSCA members are needed to help supply materials on current scientific work and on the positive interaction of science and faith as well as personal Christian testimonies for a new program called RADAS (Radio Academy of Science) of the Slavic Gospel Association of Wheaton, Illinois. Peter Devneka, Jr., whose father founded the SGA, says that the 30-ainute science-oriented programs, translated into Russian and other Slavic languages and broadcast via the short-wave transmitter of HCJB in Quito, Ecuador, have great potential for reaching people for Christ behind the Iron Curtain. ' Derek Chinnell of Wheaton College is helping to set up a network of scientists to contribute to the project on a regular basis as Special Correspondents. For a brochure explaining more about how RADAS will work in practice and the part you can play in it, write RADAS Faculty Office, Slavic Gospel Association, P.O. Box 1122, Wheaton, IL 60187. If you need some personal encouragement to participate, write Dr. Derek A. Chignell, Dept. of Chemistry, Wheaton College, Wheaton, IL 60187.

2. Betty Mae Dyck, wife of Canadian entomologist Arnold Dyck of the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines, saw a notice in an issue of the Newsletter from someone who wondered how to make good use of old textbooks. The Dycks have personal knowledge of an IVCF-sponsored bookroom in an isolated part of the southern Philippines, which they endorse 100 percent as an effective Christian ministry in need of our help. (Besides, have you tried to sell old editions of textbooks?) Send your old textbooks, even if used, in the physical, biological, and social sciences, plus other related books, via sea mail, to: Miss Norie Payawan, IN.C.F. Grad. Team, Mindanao Institute of Technology, Kabacan, Cotobato, Mindanao, Philippines.

3. How about getting behind one of our members overseas with prayer or financial support? Terrell Smith. for example, has recently gone to Germany under auspices of the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students. By doing graduate work as an international student, he will be able to create an indigenous evangelistic ministry to other international students in Germany, particularly those from Arab countries. This fall Terrell enrolled at the 10,000-student University of Marburg and in spite of a tight housing situation got the only available room in a large dorm where most of the international students live. For the oral part of the German exam, required of all foreign enrollees, Terrell chose to share his Christian faith with the professors; he felt that the Lord gave him remarkable fluency in German to talk about how one can know God in Christ--and he passed the exam. Terrell still needs some financial support; you could contribute to his work c/o IFES, P.O. Box 270, Madison, WI 53791. Warum nicht?

HOW TO RECYCLE SOMETHING. No. 22

Scientific equipment. From a friend hunting for a desk we recently learned about a huge warehouse where a sale is held every week to dispose of the university's surplus property. Office furniture, typewriters, and other items were there in abundance, along with centrifuges, electronic equipment, meters, and tons of laboratory equipment. Some was wrecked or otherwise inoperable but some looked discarded merely because grant funds were available for a newer, more efficient model. Many items at rockbottom prices would yield salvable components to build homemade teaching or research equipment. Probably every university has such a treasure trove for the ingenious scrounger.

If not, you can get a free main-order catalog of recycled laboratory instrumentation from at least one company that deals in used equipment. Write for a catalog from: Sixes and Sevens, 6032-197th Ave. East, Sumner, Washington 98390. We've never dealt with such an outfit, but it sounds like a good idea.

GETTING THE PLUTONIUM OUT

Chemists S. Krough Derr and Jack Schubert of Hope College, Holland, Michigan, have been able to mix certain chelating agents, tailoring them to scavenge for particular metals in cases of metal poisoning. Their mixed chelating agents have been shown to completely remove Pu from mice and to lower lethal Cd doses to a level at which mice can survive, even when the individual agents alone (such as diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, salicylid acid, EDTA, or 2,3-dimercapto-propanol-l-sulfonate) were unable to remove the metals., Their paper in Nature 275, 311 (1978) suggests that their systems might also make possible diagnostic or radiological use of metals such as plutonium in medicine and in controlled study of the effects of heavy metals on living systems, according to Chemical &.Engineering News for October 9, 1978.

GET THE LEAD OUT, YOU GUYS

One year ago the Newsletter carried an appeal from Robert V. Gentry of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (Nuclear Division, ORNL, P.O. Box X, Oak Ridge, TN 37830) for help in interpreting his results with radio halos that seem to call the geologic timescale into question. Bob says he hasn't heard "word one" from ASA members, but some others are beginning to pay attention. In April 1978 he presented his results at a symposium on geo-chronology at Louisiana State U. in Baton Rouge, a report of which was written up in Geotimes for September 1978 by a professor of engineering concerned about providing containment of radioactive wastes and determining the long-term stability of formations underlying dam sites or nuclear power plants. He concluded that the questions raised by the work of Gentry and others left him quite uneasy about establishing the age of geologic formations.

Meanwhile, Gentry and colleagues continue to crank out research papers: Nature 274. 457-9 (3 August 1978). Why don't some of you nuclear-physics or geochemistry types get together with him and help sort all this out?

A LANDMARK PHILOSOPHICAL WORK?

One expects librarians to be enthusiastic about books, but Daniel A. Seager of the U. of Northern Colorado in Greeley particularly recommends a new book by a professor of philosophy on his campus. Dean Turner's Commitment to Care: An Integrated Philosophy of Science, Education, and Religion (Devin-Adair, 1978; $1 ) evidently contains: "(1) a radically new concept and definition of objectivity, (2) a brilliant reconstruction (Christianization) of quantum mechanics, and (3) a revolutionary redevelopment (Christianization) of the physics and philosophy of space and time," at least according to the foreword written by the Christian Scholars Foundation. Dan thinks these and other aspects of Turner's analysis may make Commitment to Care "a landmark volume."

OBITUARY NOTICE

Paul G. Simpson of Pensacola, Florida, died suddenly of a heart attack on November 2, 1978, at the age of 39. After receiving his Ph.D. in chemistry from Harvard, Paul joined the chemistry faculty of Stanford University, then moved to Oregon State University. He left academic life for employment with Monsanto chemical company in Pensacola where he was employed at the time of his death. Paul is survived by his wife Sonja and four daughters, ages 8 to 13. The family requested that memorial gifts be given to Fairfield Presbyterian Church of Pensacola, or to the work of Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship. Paul had served as faculty advisor for the Stanford IVCF chapter, and more recently for the Pensacola group.

SOME GIFT SUGGESTIONS

If this reaches you in time for Christmas,,consider some creative alternatives to buying expensive presents for friends and relatives who really don't need anything. If itts too late this year, write to National Alternative Celebrations, 1500 Farragut St., N.W., Washington, DC 20011, for some suggestions for next year. Or write to Alternatives Bookstore, 1924 E. Third St., Bloomington, IN 47401, for a free list of resources available from them; they publish The Alternative Celebrations Catalog (4th edition, $5), a great idea to divert some of the $9,000,,000,000 that will be spent on America's Christmas shopping spree into the meeting of critical social needs.

Of course, any time is a good time to contribute to the American Scientific Affiliation, where an extra $10 from each member would begin to open new doors of witness and service: 5 Douglas Ave., Elgin, IL 60120.

Jubilee Fund, begun two years ago by the magazine The Other Side, channels money into carefully selected projects run by evangelical Christians who value both social justice and person-to-person evangelism. Most projects are in the long-term development or self-help category, such as Voide of Calvary Ministries in Mississippi and Elizabeth Native Interior Mission in Liberia. Jubilee Fund, Box 12236, Philadelphia, PA 19144.

For direct aid to desperate people administered in the name of Christ by frugal and competent Christians, it's hard to beat the Mennonite Central ColQmittee, 21 South 12th St., Akron, PA 17501. We like the fact that when you give them money they don't put you on a mailing list and deluge you with appeals. You get a receipt, plus a brief report once a year--and a lot of satisfaction.

This year, or next, why not kick the commercial Christmas habit?

AND FOR CHANUKAH...

Arthur W. Kac, an ASA member who is a scholarly Messianic Jew, again makes copies of his book The Messianic Hope available at cost for giving as Chanukah gifts to our Jewish colleagues. The "Feast of Lights" celebrates a 2nd-century B.C. Jewish victory over pagan Syrian Greeks who were trying to obliterate Jewish culture in Palestine. Chanukah, which comes about the same time as Christmas each year, is celebrated for a whole week in Jewish homes with the lighting of candles and the giving of gifts. The Messianic Hope, a gentle way to share with a Jewish friend the message of Christmas from the Bible and Rabbinic writings, can be ordered at $3.50 a copy form Dr. Kac, 2419 Eastridge Rd., Timonium, MD 21093.

PEOPLE LOOKING FOR POSITIONS

R. Kurt Huddleston (7645 N. Sheridan Rd., Apt. 305, Chicago, IL 60626) is a physical chemist seeking a position on completion of his Ph.D. at Northwestern in March 1979. Kurt is investigating vibrational energy transfer in small molecules in the gas phase, but he is also interested in kinetics, spectroscopy, and lasers. A member of ASA for several years, Kurt is on the steering committee of the North Suburban Christian Church in Skokie, Illinois. He has some preference for the Washington, D.C. area.

Mark B. Swanson (4506 N. Keystone Ave., Chicago, IL 60630) expects to receive his Th-.D.-in biochemistry from the U. of Illinois Medical Center in June 1979. His research has been strong on protein purification and enzyme analysis, specifically of phosphorylated proteins and protein kinases related to mammalian virology. Mark is interested in teaching organic chemistry, molecular biology, virology, introductory chemistry, even mathematics; he taught physical science and math in the public schools before entering grad school but particularly enjoys teaching at the college and graduate levels. Having lived in Swaziland and South Africa for 12 years, he is willing to consider positions in other countries/cultures. (For Mark's political concern as a citizen, see Oct/Nov 1978 Newsletter, p. 7.)

Jan van Donk (3003 Benham Ave., Elkhart, IN 46514) wants to teach at a 2-year or 4-year Christian college; although he could teach chemistry, earth science, or physics at the college level his primary interest is in teaching integrated science. Jan has a B.A. in chemistry (physics minor) from Goshen College (1964) and a Ph.D. in geochemistry from Columbia (1970). In the next 4 years his paleo climatic research at Columbia produced about 10 publications. In 1974-78 he taught physics at a university in Botswana, Africa, under auspices of the Mennonite Central Committee. He returned with his family this year and is now taking some courses at a theological seminary. Jan wants to emphasize the interrelatedness of scientific disciplines rather than presenting them in isolation.

WASHINGTON-BALTIMORE At a meeting held November 29 at Paul Arveson's home in Silver Spring, Maryland, Ed Allen, Ben Edem, and Bill Lucas were elected to the executive committee. Paul put on one of his now famous slide-tape shows and solicited help for the show on biological issues he is preparing for the national ASA. Several members who attended the 1978 Annual Meeting led a discussion on the implications of "Christian Stewardship of Natural Resources."

SAN DIEGO

Hearing that Elving Anderson, professor of human genetics at the U. of Minnesota, was in town for a national Symposium on Huntington's Disease, Jerry Albert called around and managed to gather Craig Allen, Kay & Fred Jappe, and Al Fus~n_ -for an impromptu visit with one of ASA's outstanding thinkers. Elving chairs the standing committee on "Science and Society" of Sigma Xi, the scientific research honorary society. " According to Jerry, "Besides sharing with us his insights on human genetics and its ethical problems, Elving stimulated us to consider how ASA might play a role in public issues being dealt with by Sigma Xi, such as nuclear p6wer, carcinogens, and water resources. ASA members need to be thinking of how we can be good neighbors in each of those areas."

SAN FRANCISCO BAY

The Generally Operable Official Directors (i.e., GOOD guys) of the S.W. corner of the section are, predictably, on the ball. The executive council consisting of Roy Gritter (chair), Paul McKowen (secy-treasurer), Willie Anderson, Lynn Boliek, and Dick Desautel have already put together several projects. One is a series of four meetings on the general theme of psychology, first of which was held at Stanford on Wednesday, October 25. Another is a special local directory intended not only to acquaint members with each other but also to use in witnessing: each entry will include a statement of Christian service and of integration of faith and work along with the usual professional and personal information.

The October 25 meeting drew perhaps 50 or 60 people, including a large group of Stanford students, to hear a Christian professor of psychology at Cal State, Hayward, Donald Strong, gave an overview of the field of psychology, its interactions with Christianity, and his predictions for the future. Pointing out that psychology had generated both rather general "personality theories" and much narrower "learning theories," Strong said that about a dozen personality theories are functional, with no unified theory presently in sight. Psychoanalytic, behaviorist, and humanistic forces contribute to the tension between clinical and experimental psychology. Strong, who thinks that people need a harmony of theology and psychology to restore what was lost through human fallenness, sees psychology as now much more open to religious experience. He predicted that there would be many more psychologists in the future, that closer ties with theology would develop, and that there would be more direct application in the lives of ordinary people. He cited current work on biofeedback and his own work with U.S. Olympic athletes; he has been able to reduce anxiety in competition and thus improve performance.

Before the speaker took on questions from all comers his talk was critiqued by pastor Lynn Boliek from a theologian's viewpoint and by chemist Roya Gritter from a "hard scientist's" viewpoint. ASA national secretary Bill Sisterson was also on hand to "psych up" members for the 1979 Annual Meeting and to suggest roles for the local section to play in that meeting.

Two nights later Bill met in Berkeley with "something less than a majority" of members in the N.E. corner of the section, including the two Benevolent Available Directors (i.e. BAD guys) John Amoore and Walt Hearn, who keep plotting to "take over" the section as soon as their Berkeley forces outnumber the Stanford forces. Bill, who seemed willing to take his chances with the GOOD guys, then scooted back to Stanford to consult with professor Dick Bube on arrangements for the 1979 Annual Meeting, to be held on the Stanford campus August 10-13. (Well, at least the BAD guys have found a fine place to hold future meetings--the comfortable fireside lounge on the second floor of Berkeley Covenant Church.)
Response to my letter in November with the green questionnaire and request for a gift has been generally good. While I have only heard from about 300 members (10% of total), the intensity of the response is great. Most have responded with enthusiasm and willingness to help on several of the specifics suggested. In addition, the average gift has been over $10 so far with the total approaching $4,000. We need a total of $10,000 to catch up on our current bills. If you have yet to reply please complete the form and include a gift if you are able. I would feel a lot more confident that we have a representative response if we received 1,000 of the questionnaires. Please get yours in and tell us your preferences for ASA activities in 1979.

The specific suggestion in my letter that has drawn the most questions is the idea of a center for stewardship of natural resources. Concern is expressed both for the cost 'to a small organization like ASA and that it is too secondary an objective for us to concentrate on. Another concern is that there are other agencies and institutions already working in these areas, so we would at best be a weak duplication of effort.

I share these concerns and am sorry that the space in my letter was insufficient to explain the idea more fully. In no way do we want to duplicate effective work done elsewhere, and, in fact, want to actively support established efforts that are working. There are many agencies, both private and governmental, that are doing a good job in stewardship of natural resources research and technology. What is lacking is a generally positive response from the evangelical church. Of all the organizations I am aware of, the ASA is in a more responsible position to lead the church in good natural resources stewardship. It is my desire to see ASA take that leadership by both example and active teaching of other Christians.

The example of an ASA headquarters that applies the best understanding of stewardship of natural resources would be a powerful argument in our efforts to teach other Christians. The current idea a few of us in ASA have is to get several members together in a single location to practice good resources stewardship and use that as a base for leading the church into more responsible action. The funding of the project would come from those actively in the center and would not effect the regular ASA budget apart from office expenses at a level already existing in our current budget. If possible we would like to join with some established community that shares our concerns or locate close to where many members already live so Tqe could.draw on their involvement while they kept their current jobs.

We don't want to build any monuments to ASA or drain vital resources of time and money from existing effective programs. We do want to demonstrate our commitment by practicing what we seek to teach others. It seems to me that this can be done along the
lines suggested in my letter and in these additional comments. Let me hear from you so your input will help shape the future of ASA.

Thomas M. Zepko has returned to studies at Caltech, having left his position as a programmer for a major defense contractor after struggling over the issue of what he was doing with his life. It bothered him to see so many highly trained people ending up in the arms business, often ignoring the question of what are appropriate applications of our vast technological expertise. Tom thinks that as Christians we ought to be in the best position to speak to such questions with a definitive word and a viable personal witness through example. He says he's taken one step, leaving an "inappropriate" (maybe even "wrong"?) application, but so far he's managed only to defer the second step--engaging in something of real value. That part of the question still looms before him. If you want to offer Tom some encouragement, his address is 405 N. Madison Avenue, #29, Pasadena, California 91101.
