And nowhere has the urge to question and challenge the past taken deeper roots than in The Netherlands, where a branch of the church once noted for its stodgy conservatism has suddenly become the acknowledged center of avant-garde thinking within Catholicism...
...Though Gregory is a master of bitter hyperbole, there was no exaggeration in his description as far as one Wharlest Jackson, 36, was concerned last week.

The treaty, said Franz Josef Strauss, leader of the Bavarian branch of the Christian Democrats, "is a new Yalta of cosmic proportions,"-harking back to the wartime conference in which the Americans and Russians decided the fate of postwar Europe...
