...some cases, Catholics are organizing ceremonies of their own. Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish in Madison, Wis., for example, will have an afternoon service commemorating the birth of Protestantism at which the guest speaker will be Lutheran Theologian Bruce Wrightsman.

...five years old, Esalen's appeal is so broad that a Jesuit moral theologian from Loyola University of Los Angeles and a curriculum expert for the State University of New York are among its 21 resident fellows, who pay $3,000 for nine months of study. Most Esalen students attend short-term workshops and seminars. More than 1,000 people heard a lecture this month by Maslow at the First Unitarian Society Church in San Francisco, where Esalen has just started a branch program. Also intrigued by the institute is the Ford Foundation's Fund for the Advancement...
