·A· SCIENTIST-PRIEST LOOKS AT EVENTS 1,900 YEARS AGO

A Strange New View Of That First Easter Day

IN

a little village church near Stafford one evening, while the lights of family cars back from a country trip still flicker through the dusk outside, churchgoers will be listening calmly to an earnest-faced young man in the pulpit,

But something soon may help to shatter their calm. That preacher is a curate of not quite 26. Yet as Easter comes he is likely to stir loud controversy throughout the Church.

/The subject of the contro- versythe evidence for Easter itself; the evidence which, in a Recen province over 1,900

years ago, set people whispering that a Man had risen from the

dead.

A CASE-BOOK

By matching the Resurrection evidence with the findings of research into telepathy he has tried to show that there is noth- ing in the Bible story which falls to fit in with the laws of twentieth-century science.

He has taken the strange and wonderful events which followed Christ's death and made them Into a case-book study for psychic research.

But as they carry their boxes o! spleed grease and scent nearer to the limestone rock they feel that something has changed since Friday,

Suddenly they sec that the tomb in the rock is open. They see a man in white robes (or, according to one recollection, two men) walling inside. They hear the words: "He is not here. lie is risen."

In amazement the women stumble back under the dawn sky to Jerusalem with their news.
