...fags, the fairies, the queens, the queers. Just stop and try to recall all the derogatory euphemisms we've invented in order to reject homosexuals. Lots of them, aren't there? Probably even greater than the number of euphemisms we've invented for the black. That's fairly good index of exactly how much our society fears homosexuals. Of course we feared the blacks, too, feared them even while we chucked 'em under their cork-blackened chins. But we feared them precisely because they were hetero. Aggressively so, we thought. And so we quickly learned how to castrate them...
...anyone who wasn't a preacher." As president of the freewheeling Universal Life Church Inc., of Modesto, Calif., Hensley is a man of his word. Last week alone he appointed more than 1,000 new ministers in his church, and if a clergy head count is any index of growth, the Universal Life Church may well be the fastest-growing denomination in the U.S. There are already well over 18,000 ministers in Hensley's church.

He equates these pulses with nervous tension and says that his exercisers cut tension...

Investors Mutual Fund, the industry's biggest (assets: $3 billion), grew a disappointing 8.45%. A sister fund, Investors Stock ($2.3 billion), gained 8.3%, while Wellington Fund ($1.8 billion) rose only 8%. Fidelity Trend ($1.4 billion), which registered a 34% increase in 1967, achieved no more than a 1.76% rise last year...
