The only cure
for this crippling influence is a strong and independent organized teaching profession, whose members are protected against outside interference in the performance of their professional functions and who recognize and accept their
responsibility for dealing knowledgeably and impartially not only with the proximate issues of
life but also with the
ultimate concerns of faith through which the particulars of
life gain their deeper significance.
Life as a renter is in some ways advantageous to that of a homeowner; one of the major benefits we get to enjoy is in the area of insurance, where we do not have
ultimate responsibility for the structure of the buildings in which we
live.
