Stapled Wraps. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Please note: this address is *not* reprinted in the Rev. Fritchman's posthumous collection of sermons and addresses entitled "For the Sake of Clarity." Offered is the text of a radio talk by the Rev. Stephen H. Fritchman entitled "The Obligation of the Non-Conformist" given on Sunday, May 7, 1950 on the "Unitarian Time" program at Radio Station KGFJ and published in print form in that year by the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles. A mimeographed publication, as issued, measuring 8-1/2" by 14" and containing two-and-one-half pages of text. From the radio talk, reading in short part, "Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, 'For non-conformity the world will whip you with its scorn.' This being true, there are occasional people, bruised and wounded by life, who conclude that non-conformity is a good thing in itself - whatever the form it takes. Their effectiveness melts to zero, and their judgment often becomes warped and twisted since they mistake attention for achievement. No, non-conformity must be measured by its ends and purposes. The non-conformist may simply be queer, frustrated, striking out in rebellion against an unfriendly world. Here is where we Unitarians believe ethical religion has a contribution to make." Folded once, as issued. The REVEREND STEPHEN H. [HOLE] FRITCHMAN (1902-1981), author, liberal humanist, and social and antiwar activist, was the minister of the progressive First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles, California, from 1948 to 1969.
