Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 14, No. 11. September 6, 1951

Munz v. Flanagan

Munz v. Flanagan

After a lecture with no historical presumptions, and including a wealth of fact, source and relevant quotation the discussion continued on a reasonable plane.

Dr. Munz made the point that continuous disagreement between scholars did not disprove their case. Dr. Flanagan agreed but pointed out that the disagreement was such as to point to that conclusion.

Further discussion arose from the writings of St. Paul. Dr. Munz doubts their historicity. Dr. Flanagan said they were not essential, but made it clear that this was a question requiring separate treatment.

After Dr. Munz's claim that there are equally well attested claims for other divinities and his refusal to go further with that contention, the meeting ended amicably.

According to Dr. Munz: "It all depends on one's Faith"; no said Dr. Flanagan: "It all depends on one's philosophy."

Mr. D. E. Hurley, President of the Catholic Students' Guild which arranged the meeting thanked the speaker and the audience.
