Politics, Art, Religion : Page 276


However, despite all these cautions to the "brain trusters," the best conversationalist in matters of art, politics, sociology, and religion in the long run is the fellow who sees through life's glass less darkly than the rest. It is the person who in the fields where man's thought and research are engaged is most often right. Though people cannot recognize it as easily, it is just as important for a good conversationalist to have a high record for the truth as for a weatherman

to have it for rain and a doctor for cures. All human thinking is a gigantic, restless effort to see better the ways of God to man and of man to God. The conversationalist who does most to scatter such light is the best one. Such a one must be a good and honest thinker, who painstakingly tries to see what is the best, truest, and wisest in the realms of man's vast activities and thoughts.
