are full of significance for the future, |
This is the Egypt of today.
“Into the East has come the West, |
with the torchlights of American |
christianity, the ncblest symbol of
Western civilization—an American |
christian university; a university that
will be a bridge of friendliness be-
tween Egypt and America. Across
it may be carried to the Near East
the richest content of American
christian life and Western civiliza-
tion.
“You know that we are here at tle
crossroads of Arabic speaking peo-
ples and Cairo, the center of Arabic
speaking world and the key to Afri-
ca. As you also notice it is seen
to be gecgraphically standing at the
center of the Moslem world. Still
more important is her recognized
place as the brain center of Islam.
“Undoubtedly you have heard of
the renowned Azhar, that university
of over 10,000 students and by far
older than Oxford and Cambridge— !
widely recognized as the final author-
ity on all that pertains to Arabic |
literature and theology. At what]
other point in the
world could the influence of a great |
whole Mos. em |
|
christian university be more strate:
oically exerted? Glancing at the
pages of history, we find that Na- |
roleon said ‘By seizing and holding |
Egypt I grasp and command the des-
{inies of th: whole civilized world!
Not to go so far back, I shall never
target, as long as I live, the words
of John R. Mott in one of his ser-|
mons waile I was attending with the |
Heidelberg University delegation, the |
1919 Y.M.C.A. conferenc at Lake |
Geneva, Wisconsin. He said, ‘What
greater honor could a man have than
to help make Cairo a great generating
and pro; ogating center for a leader-
sa’p that will influence three contin-
ents, Africa, Asia and the danger
zone of Europe?
