...irritated as anyone else at Sinn Fein's refusal to condemn Irish Republican Army atrocities [WORLD, March 11], and at clumsy attempts by radio and TV commentators to get it to do so. However, there is much more to the matter than merely seeking to establish that there are politically incorrect attitudes among Sinn Fein spokespeople. There is also the effect on the mind-sets of those who organize or execute such atrocities. Every time Sinn Fein officials fail to condemn I.R.A. violence, they are implicitly asserting the right not of only the I.R.A. but also other groups to carry...
...disgusted is Johnson, in fact, that he, like Bultmann before him, counsels believers to ignore the search for the historical Jesus altogether.

...recommended adding "and subsequent destruction in the West Bank and Gaza" to the first prhase, "In response to the recent terrorist bombings in Israel;" and changing "condemn the recent terrorist bombings in Israel" to "condemn the recent terrorism in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, and consequent retaliatory measures taken against innocent civillians." In addition, we hoped to add a phrase mentioning support of peace and justice, which were nowhere mentioned in the statement as it was given to us, and specifically naming the mosque in Hebron as the Ibrahimi mosque...
