Pope John Paul II is correct: Christ was no political leader [Feb. 12], but there is no doubt that his message to us encourages us to seek political and social change. Liberation theology did not die with Pope John Paul's visit to Mexico, just as Christ's message to "set the captive free" is not dead...

...peace now in order to avoid further unrest in the region." But as Brown discovered during his three-day visit to Cairo, the Egyptians are pessimistic about the Camp David talks. "Iran has changed everything," a senior Egyptian official told TIME Cairo Bureau Chief Dean Brelis. "There is serious doubt about Israel's intent to make peace. A duty has fallen on the U.S. to respond not as a superpower but as a friend of the Arabs." Added another official: "Camp David is no longer our No. 1 priority." What alarmed the Egyptians was the specter of a highly...

When lawyers go to heaven, and a few presumably do, these are no doubt the kinds of matters they discuss over lunch. Now heaven can wait.

I don't think I have exxagerated in view of the terrible experience of the Jewish populations in Moslem countries in the past few years. Let it also be said that Iran itself has historically experienced pogroms--anti-Jewish race riots. The way in which the Israeli consulate in Iran was ransacked recently adds to my concern.

...precisely here that the film begins to go wrong. There can be no doubt that Schrader has earnestly studied the porno underworld and that he is genuinely appalled by what he found. But tie does not know it in his bones, as he does that other world. The lighting is wild, when it is not harsh, the better to illuminate wasted faces. The dialogue is sometimes tough, sometimes fantastical. People struggle to express their pathetic rationalizations for what they are doing and their equally pathetic dreams of escape. But Schrader never seems to get beyond his own shock; he keeps...
