...remains to be seen whether Pan nenberg-who is now working out the philosophical foundation for a full-scale theology of history-proves to be an effective counter to Bultmann. But even Pannenberg's critics concede that he has once again raised several traditional issues that have been largely ignored by contemporary German theologians. In contrast to both Bultmann and Switzerland's Karl Barth, who strongly emphasizes the uniqueness of God's revelation in Christ, Pannenberg stresses the continuity of Old and New Testaments. Compared with theologies that place exclusive stress on Biblical authority, Pannenberg...

Miss Greenhouse to the contrary, the buttons were sold without regard to race, creed, or collegiate origin, but only about a dozen summies asked for them. Under the circumstances, such apathy was refreshing...
...case of over-the-counter aspirin, even so crude a test device as the irritable stomach of a man with a hangover will sometimes show a distinction: two five-grain tablets of one brand, especially from a half-empty bottle that has been in the medicine chest for a cou ple of months, will promptly give him heartburn, whereas the same dose of another brand may have no such effect...
