To Have the Detroit Convention Request
the Presidents of the Districts in Which
Dr. Carl Krekeler, Dr. William Bloom,
and Pres. 0. P. Kretzmann Are Now
Members to Deal with Them According
to the Synodical “Handbook,” ete.

Wuereas, Dr. Carl Krekeler and Dr. William Bloom
have written:

There can be no denying the fact that there is evi-
dence to support the hypothesis that man has evolved
physically from prehuman ancestors. (P. 457, General
Biology, see Lutheran News, Aug. 26, 1963)

These patterns of grading mental capacities based on
previously existing mental abilities tend to support the
hypothesis that man has evolved mentally also from pre-

lution, is not only quite possible, but also highly desirable
as rationally, scientifically, and theologically sound.
(Ibid., p. 438)

The fact remains, however, that there is no other
theory which provides proximate explanations which are
as broadly usable and widely accepted as the theory of
evolution. (Ibid., p. 444)

and

Wuereas, President O, P. Kretzmann of Valparaiso
University defends these professors and contends that
Lutheran professors should be permitted to maintain
that the theory of evolution is correct. (“What Is
Troubling the Lutherans,” Part IH, pp. 28, 29, 53); there-
fore be it

Resolved, That the 1965 Detroit convention of The
Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod request the Presi-
dents of the Districts of which Dr. Carl Krekeler, Dr.
William Bloom, and President O. P. Kretzmann are
presently members to deal with them according to the
synodical Handbook, as with those guilty of false
doctrine.
