The religious aspects of liberalism was the topic of discussion presented this week at the third of a series of seven informal meetings dealing with "Liberalism in a World at War." After the Reverend Frederick R. Griffin of the First Unitarian Church of Philadelphia had opened the meeting by forwarding the views as seen by a parish priest on "What We Mean by a Liberal Religion," the audience asked the speaker questions pertaining to a liberal faith in the regular discussion period that followed.
The weekly "Liberalism" lectures have new dealt with the religious and historical angles of the subject. Dr. Deutsch of M.I.T. spoke on "Has Liberalism Failed" at the opening meeting, and Professor Matthiessen continued the series with a description of liberalism in American history.
Tuesday's meeting will differ from the past discussions in that the speaker, Professor Clyde K.M. Kluckholm of the Anthropology Department, in a lecture entitled "The Case Against Liberalism," will give his audience views contrary to those presented by the previous speakers. All college students and service men are invited to attend the discussion beginning at 7.15 o'clock Tuesday at the Lowell House Junior Common Room.
