...against the Protestantism that the Y is supposed to offer along with its weight-reducing classes and such, but the days are long gone when the London-founded, 117-year-old Y was an evangelical organization that excluded what Whalen called "Romanists, Jews and infidels." Few Catholics have paid heed to theological lint-picking over what is now virtually a community organization.

...underground tests of more than 19 kilotons-about the size of the bomb that fell on Hiroshima. In return for that, they demanded that both sides declare a "voluntary" ban on smaller, underground nuclear explosions, which are virtually undetectable without inspection. Meanwhile, said the Soviets, they would heed a U.S. call to work jointly toward better detection methods. To the U.S., the Soviet carrot looked tasty.

Quirks of custom and filigrees of doctrine, thunderbolts of power politics and showers of private revelations, have split and fissured the masonry of the church time and again throughout the centuries. The Protestant Reformation triggered a chain reaction of Christian fission that reached its explosive peak in the New World; in 1900 the U.S. had no fewer than 250 different kinds of Christianity...
