Praise be to Spokane's Roman Catholic Bishop Bernard J. Topel [Nov. 13] for his voluntary poverty, one of the fundamentals of Christian doctrine. Unfortunately, he is one of a tiny minority aware of the unwritten maxim, "You can tell but cannot teach, unless you practice what you preach...
...program in the prisons. I hope the agencies involved will consider the case of Malnak vs. Yogi in New Jersey, 1977, in which it was determined that TM was based on religious doctrine. I have no argument with the teaching of religious principles to rehabilitate criminals-indeed a Christian conversion would produce the same results-but feel no religion should be taught with the tax support and approval of Government.

You know, get a half gallon of Chivas for your Aunt Minnie who belongs to the Women's Christian Temperance Union and then visit her house a lot. (Got anything to drink? Why, lookee here! Haw, Haw, Haw!) Assuming no one is really that crass, it's best to reserve bottle gifts for people like your boss, your roommates or the police man who let you off the hook when you were doing 75 down Main Street this Thanksgiving. Of course, there...
