...Your brilliant Feb. 18 story of the Rev. Martin Luther King is a picture of early Christianity. It left me ashamed of my own ministry as I realized how cowardly I have been in the struggle for justice, mercy and equality.

Batteries of psychological tests showed two distinct personalities, far more sharply differentiated in voice, speech, posture, mannerisms, handwriting and emotions than the most brilliant actress could have portrayed. Yet there was not the faintest suggestion of a mental illness resembling schizophrenia (the so-called "split personality"). Here were two rational personalities inhabiting the same body-though irresponsible Eve Black had some earmarks of a mild psychopath...
