Rhem Collection Description An account of the resource Text and sound recordings of the sermons, prayers, services, and articles of Richard Rhem, pastor emeritus of Christ Community Church in Spring Lake, Michigan, where he served for 37 years. Starting in the mid 1980's, Rhem began to question some of the traditional Christian dogma that he had been espousing from the pulpit. That questioning was a first step in a long and interesting spiritual journey, one that he openly shared with his congregation. His journey is important, in part because it is reflective of the questioning, the yearnings, and the gradual revision of beliefs that many persons in this part of the century have experienced and continue to experience. It is important also because of the affirming and inclusive way his questioning was done and his thinking evolved. His sermons and other written and spoken materials together document the steps in his journey as it took a turn in 1985, yet continued to revolve around the framework and liturgies of the Christian calendar.

For in Sobzbor, B elzec, M aidanek , Chelmno, and especially in T reblinka, th e entire existence of these places was designed/ or, and dedicated to , death for death 's salre . Wh en mass extermination of the J ews began in Treblinka on J uly 23 , 1942, the Na zis jneserved the lives of some prisoners to do the actual work of "jJro cessing " the oth ers. But on August 2, 1943, against incalculable odds, th ese ajJproximately 600 "work J ews" armed themselves with stolen weapons, attack ed th e guards, burn ed down th e camjJ, and fl ed into th e nearby Polish f orests . T he Germans, to hide th eir cnm e, leveled w hat remain ed of th e camjJ. 1h e Ukranian farm er who I/lo ved zn was instructed to say th at h e an d his family had lived th ere always. Of the 200 J ews who lived through the revolt, a.few more than 40 survived th e war. Th ey claim that, at the very least, 800,000 men , women, and children died in Treblinka. But Franciszek Z abecki, w ho was tra(jic superviso r at th e Treblin ka railroad station and also a member of the Polish underground, ihinks dUJerently . Th e methodical Germans ha-d marked numbers on th e outside o.f arriving cattle cars to indicate how ma ny victims each car contained. B y keeping a record of these numbers, Zabecki was able to tell Gitta Seren y , autho r oflnt o That Darkn ess , " Th e number of peojJle kllled in Treblinka was 1,200,-000, and th ere is no doubt a/Jo u/ it w hatever."

At Ya le U ni ve rsity in th e ea rly 1960s, for exampl e, socia l psychologist Sta nl ey M ilgram performed his famous "o bedience experiments" to determin e at w h a t point a person would r es ist "officia l" directi ves a nd refuse to continue in a process of obvious cruelty. The resu lts were un ex pected . Two-thirds of iv1ilgram's voluntee r participa nts (people of di verse ages a nd jobs) did exactly as they w ere told : und er the guise of a " learning Lest" th ey followed th e in stru ctions of a ma n dressed as a "scienlist" a nd appli ed high er a nd hi gher ch arges of electri ca l shock to "subjects " who were fa iling to " lea rn " properly . This process went on , in some cases, until the "s ubjects" a ppeared to be h av in g heart a ttacks .

Wh en the su bjects did not a nswe r proper ly, the scienti sts , or a uthority figur es, ordered the volunteers to adm ini ster shocks up to 450 volts, Milgram concluded th a t " rela ti vely few people have the reso urces to resist a uthority ," even when they believe their obed ience is producing evil.

To rise up and fight against impossible odds so that at least one person among them would survive to tell the world. thus, by some mad logic, remain pure and remote from their own evil. The great killing centers were six: AuschwitzBirkenau, M a idanek , Ghelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, and Treblinka , all of them named for rural villages near which , in the occupied territories of Eastern Europe, they were built. A camp like Auschwitz murdered very large numbers of human beings daily , but it also served as an administrative center for the camp system as a whole a nd likewise as a source of slave labor for industries producing war materiel. Other camps, Treblinka in particular, were designed for one thing on ly: to kill as many peop le as possibl e, as fast as poss ible. These cam ps, often referred to as "death fa ctories ," embody a principle I would call demonic rather than merely in sane, for insanity has neither . firm structure nor a steady goal. What went on in the killing ce nters was highly organized, and the goal was very definite indeed: routines were established; different methods of killing were experimented with; solid bureaucratic systems implemented the extermination process at every stage of its operation; and large numbers of men an d women went daily a bout their jobs fully awa re th at the ent ire a im of this gigantic underta king was murder , that the main and final produ ct of this modern ized fa ctory system was dea th . The dedi cation of life's energi es to the production of death is a demoni c principle of the first degree. Concomitant with it is a second , similar principle, na mely, that unlike any example of genocide I can think of from the thi ck history of mankind's inhum a nity- the slaughter of the American Indians 5 for exampl e, or the decim a tion of cities that dared to resist this or th a t "world co nqueror" (as Genghis Khan liked t.o ca ll hiin se lf)- t he destruction of the European Jews had no ra tion a l moti ve whatsoever, neither politics nor plunder, neither military strategy nor the moment 's blind expediency. The demonic irrationality of this policy becomes all th e more apparent when we observe th a t if the killing ce nters were geographically remote, they were neverth eless connected by a massive railway system th a t shipped "cargo" mar ked "s pecial treatment" from al l corners of Europe , as far east as Greece. This geographic "swee p" involved the crossing of many national borders a nd is again a n indication of the apocalyptic dimension of the Holocaust. For here, too , the point was not to get rid of this or that group, this or that popul at ion which had come into pol itica l or tact ical disfavor , but to re,1ch as far across the earth as poss ibl e in order th ;1t death , for the Jews , mi g ht be abso lut e. The frenzy ;ind obsessiveness of this drive m ay be gauged from the fac t th at during the last days of the war , when Hitler 's Reich was clearly collapsing a nd every soldier and every piece of a rtillery was desperately needed to defend what was left of the homeland , trains that mi ght have been used to transport troops and war supplies were in stead·, and without objection, employed to ship the last large community of Jews - those of Hungary-to Auschwitz. the soul itself seemed torn. But the worst and most revealing part of their experiment cam e later, when they were inform ed of the ro le they had innocently played. Disturbed by what they ha d don e, some felt compelled to judge the·mselves and they did it in term s of the Holocaust. They suddenly saw themselves as men and women who could indeed behave as Hitler's SS troops behaved-only following orders to be sure, but fol lowing orders nonetheless. And a lthough it is ludicrous to compare a clini cal experiment a t Ya le with events in the death camps, the fact that we do m a ke such spontaneous connections reveals a central truth of our time. At some unconscious level, the image of the Holocaust is with us-a memory that haunts, a sound in g boa.r d for all subsequent evil. For the vict im s of the Holocaust I cannot speak. Th eir ago ny, wh ich to this day is visible in the millions of scratches made by fingernails on the ceilings of th e gas cha mbers , is theirs with a finality none of the li ving ca n know . But for us who dwell in its aftermath, th e most awful thing about the Holocau st is simply that it happened. h entered the world not of fantasy or science Gction but of fact , of history , the world that is real a nd present a nd ours. And judging from things like the Milgra m experiments , from the perpetual fascination with Hitler a nd the Nazis , from the sudden eruption of interest in the Holoca ust itself, its prese nce in memory has not only lasted but-40 years after the event-has grown in force and authority. Simply as a fact and as a precedent , it mocks our desire to affirm life' s goodness and undermines our hope th a t never again will huma n beings gather in such vas t and well-ordered numbers to commit mass murder. It sta nds as proof of the hum an potential for ra di ca l evil a nd therefore also as a prophecy of our possib le future . Which is to say th a t after the Holoca ust , we know, we know full we ll , that life ·can be governed by death . T he first N azi camps, which were set up soon after Hitl er came to power in 1933, were d esig ned as places of dete ntion a nd as training g rounds for the SS. Dachau and Buchenwald were among the most notoriou s, and , although we cannot forget that thou sa nds of people peri shed in these places , we shou ld alsn keep in m ind th at ca mps of this kind were not intended or equipped to be instrum ents of genocide , nor were Jews their only victims. After the outbreak of the war, however , a nd as the N azi po li cy of mass extermination took shape w ith the Jews as primary target, the major " killing centers ," as they came to be called, began to operate. And all of them were located outside the Reich itse lf-as if in this way the Germans co uld indulge in atrocity without tainting German soil a nd JUNE . - . . ,.,,_ 17 ~ - . -~ ..... - ' �Th e H oloca ust is an unpar a ll eled exa mple of power run wild , whi ch is to sa y th a t once evil on this scale pi cks up enough momentum , once it esta bli shes itself in a system of fun ctioning structures, it ca nnota fter a ce rta in cru cia l point - be stopped by any counterforce within itself.

It describes the early days of the College, its groundbreaking, the difficulties in constructing the campus and its opening in 1963. The video also discusses Zumberge's presidential responsibilities, such as accepting gifts like the Angus. It then showed images and film from the Pioneer Class graduation in 1967, and from the accreditation in 1968.

Rhem Collection Description An account of the resource Text and sound recordings of the sermons, prayers, services, and articles of Richard Rhem, pastor emeritus of Christ Community Church in Spring Lake, Michigan, where he served for 37 years. Starting in the mid 1980's, Rhem began to question some of the traditional Christian dogma that he had been espousing from the pulpit. That questioning was a first step in a long and interesting spiritual journey, one that he openly shared with his congregation. His journey is important, in part because it is reflective of the questioning, the yearnings, and the gradual revision of beliefs that many persons in this part of the century have experienced and continue to experience. It is important also because of the affirming and inclusive way his questioning was done and his thinking evolved. His sermons and other written and spoken materials together document the steps in his journey as it took a turn in 1985, yet continued to revolve around the framework and liturgies of the Christian calendar.

Rhem Collection Description An account of the resource Text and sound recordings of the sermons, prayers, services, and articles of Richard Rhem, pastor emeritus of Christ Community Church in Spring Lake, Michigan, where he served for 37 years. Starting in the mid 1980's, Rhem began to question some of the traditional Christian dogma that he had been espousing from the pulpit. That questioning was a first step in a long and interesting spiritual journey, one that he openly shared with his congregation. His journey is important, in part because it is reflective of the questioning, the yearnings, and the gradual revision of beliefs that many persons in this part of the century have experienced and continue to experience. It is important also because of the affirming and inclusive way his questioning was done and his thinking evolved. His sermons and other written and spoken materials together document the steps in his journey as it took a turn in 1985, yet continued to revolve around the framework and liturgies of the Christian calendar.
