Relationship
Between
Iteligion
and
Business
Depression
Discussed
"The
relationship
between
religion
and
the
present
business
depression"
was
discussed
at
some
length
and
with
great
Interest
by
Right
Rev.
Bishop
E.
M.
Bunoz
M.
!.
at
the
noonday
luncheon
of
the
Rotary
Club
the
day
before
Christmas.
BishoD
Bunoz
explained
that
there
was
nothing
depressing
about
religion
but
quite
the
opposite.
He
recognized
that
the
world
was
not
a
paradise
and
that
the
mlllenium
was
not
here
yet.
Problems
such
as
the
present
one
of
unemployment
must
be
met
and
solved.
Governments
had
tried
to
solve
the
problem
but
It
was
too
big
for
them.
So
far
they
had
failed,
so
It
seemed
the
path
of
wisdom
for
religion
to
point
the
way.

years

Bishop
