Warts and All. Hemingway's motto was "l faut (d'abord) durer" (One must, above all, endure). He was relaxed, fulfilled, only when writing well or when life's hostilities were out in the open-during war. "Having a wonderful time!" he wrote friends after his baptism of fire as a World War I ambulance driver. As a correspondent in World War II, he reiterated: "I love combat."

And he winds up with his reasons for believing that Jesus was "a thorough-going ant-Clerical...
...INFANT BAPTISM. Because everyone is a sinner born, the Pope continued, "baptism should be administered even to little children ... in order that, though born deprived of supernatural grace, they may be reborn." Paul thus brushed aside the questioning of infant baptism raised recently by Catholics and non-Catholics alike on a variety of grounds-the most important of which asks whether those baptized should not be old enough to understand the significance of the ritual...
