Understanding?
(Continued f rom page 21 )
We always need to ask why.
Cont inues M r . Pym: "There is
always a danger that understand ing
will diminish as factual knowledge
increases. The images we see on
our te levisions refl ect only the
symptoms and consequences of a
problem. . . . When we see world
events portrayed on the screen and
described by commentators,
that
does not Jead to understanding.
but only to an emotional reaction
and t he acqui siti on of casu a l
knowledge."

tion and knowledge are priceless
g ifts which enrich us in ma ny
ways. Understanding is still more
priceless, but maybe that will
eme rge in t ime" (pages 25-26,
1984, emphasis ours). Mr. · Pym is

But what is understanding? And
why is this faculty of mind so im–
portant?

Armstrong always sought to under–
stand. Hence this magazine you
now hold in your hands. Once he
wrote of his desire to publish
The
Plain Truth .
" In 1927 the urge
pressed heavily on my mind to pro–
duce and publ ish a new kind of
magazine. My dream was to pro–
duce a ' magazine of understand–
ing.' My father said I , as a child,
even unde r f ive , woul d be a
' Phi ladelphia lawyer' when 1 grew
up, because 1 was always asking so
many questions. 1 wanted to know
'why' and ' how.' 1 wan ted to under–
s tand . As a teenager I was en–
tranced with Benjamin Franklin's
Autobiography .
I was enthralled
with his facul ty of understanding. l
had always wanted to understand
li fe- and why its problems- and
how to solve them"
(Personal f rom
the E ditor.
October 1968).
The purpose of
The Plain Truth
is to transmit understanding. Not
only of world events, but even
more importantly of the mystery of
life- why are h uma ns here on
earth?
Of course, you cannot under–

The understand ing person is always
thinking- always seeking to put
events into perspective.
Unders tand ing impl ies many
things. One who understands has a
sense of the world at large. He has
a sense of scope . H e knows geogra–
phy. He has sorne knowledge of
history. He understands human na–
ture. He is a bibl ical student. All
this is a tall order. 1t takes t ime
