- "If
  you want to prove that God is not dead...
  
  first prove that man is alive." —Rod Serling
- the speech
  given by Mr. Rod Serling during the course of his day-long visit to Moorpark
  College on December 3, 1968
- its message is
  universal in scope
- I
  refused to sign a loyalty oath
- I
  did not sign the loyalty oath and I waived my normal speaking fee, only because
  of a principle
- A
  time-honored concept of Anglo-Saxon justice declares that a man is innocent
  until proven guilty. I believe that
  in a democratic society a man is similarly loyal until proven disloyal.
- No testaments of faith, no protestations of affection for his native
  load, and no amount of signatures will prove a bloody thing—one way or the
  other as to a man’s patriotism or lack thereof.
- The concept of the loyalty oath is a new one in the United States—
- It
  was a requirement in Nazi Germany and in Fascist Italy
- Under
  dictators, the so-called loyalty oath is a necessary adjunct
- To require a signature
  under an oath of allegiance seems to
- pathological distrust
- presume guilt and an attendant
  disloyalty
- I simply can’t honor
  that kind of premise—and I won’t honor it.
  And it’s for that reason that I did not sign the oath required of me to
  speak here for pay.
- if indeed, I were hell bent to subvert
  the government of the United States, I would certainly have no qualms about
  signing anything
- I’d
  like to talk to you tonight about the generation gap as it applies to what’s
  going on.
- there are certain gut-deep philosophies and
  attitudes that are a part of my bone marrow—unshakable and unswervable
- Suddenly we are a nation whose
  new battle slogan is law and order
- the great new American euphemism
- interchangeable with God, Motherhood, the
  Constitution and the Holy Grail
- But
  how empty and how suspect is this sloganry when it points up the incredible
  selectivity on the part of America’s citizenry
- —how picky and choosey they
  are when it comes to moral outrage
- There was no hue and cry for a
  re-examination of American conscience when four little Negro girls were bombed
  to pieces in a Birmingham church
- no collective gasp of offense when three young civil rights workers were
  slaughtered in Mississippi
- no slogans at all attending the bombing off over a hundred churches in the
  south
- juries were all white
- a white man accused of first
  degree homicide has never, in the history of the south, been given a sentence
  commensurate with the proven charge
- flagrant violations of law and order
- five thousand lynchings
- These assaults on conscience we
  live with, and nobody cries out for law and order
- an anti-lynching bill.
  A simple law to protect the lives of black citizens below the Mason-Dixon
  line
- hang a human being from a
  tree, cover him with kerosene and cremate him
- the loudest cheerleaders of our current law and order rallies
- were the very gentlemen who fought against
  that legislation
- Thirty two billion dollars into a civil war
- ten thousand miles from our
  shore
- to protect the freedom of the South Vietnamese
- keep the Viet Cong from
  attacking San Francisco
- America’s youth—or at least a sizeable share of them—find this
  to be patently unbelievable
- we keep alive the dream
- not at the cost of twenty-thousand dead American boys with a hundred-thousand
  wounded and a half a million civilians put to a torch
- Those who shout loudest for
  fiscal sanity
- These are
  the gentlemen who watched us throw two billion dollars to help prop up the
  French Colonial Government whose good offices are indistinguishable from the
  North Vietnamese
- what, indeed, are we defending there?
- to shout down opposing voices of argument, to tear
  up public property and to foist their will
- is an act of criminal, stupid, self-defeating
  insanity
- no social pressure can succeed on any level without support
- cathartic but it does nothing to advance a
  cause
- where does it all end?
- There are two quotes that I think applicable, albeit abstract
- The young smoke
  pot—we inhale from our Bartlett’s.
- The first quote is on the
  tombstone of Martin Luther King, Jr
- “They said to one another, Behold, here cometh
  the dreamer...let us slay him...and we shall see what might become of his
  dreams.”
- Scott Fitzgerald said,
- “In the dark night of the soul it is always three o’clock in the morning.”
- What
  is the generation gap? It’s the
  plaintive and desperate cry of the young that men should be one.
- If we can ever accomplish this, understand it, assimilate it, act from
  its premise—that elusive dream might take on form.
  
  That,
  my friends, is what I think it’s all about.
- the destiny of all men is not to sit in the rubble of their own
  making but to reach out for an ultimate perfection
- as of the moment we clasp hands with our neighbor, we build the first
  span to bridge the gap between the young and the old
- it’s a wish.
  But we have it within our power to make it a reality
- If you want to prove that God is not dead, first prove that man is alive.
