At the Jesuit theological school in Barcelona, José Ignacio Gonzáles Faus insists that during his earthly life, Jesus was not aware of being God, and displayed such human traits as doubt and ignorance.

"This guitar refuses to stay in tune," he complained, and later he apologized: "Tonight my guitar was not my sweetheart. It was my enemy."

...playing just that Marxist maverick role, however, Carrillo has won much attention. Cambio 16, a respected Madrid weekly, has described him as "one of the most Machiavellian, intelligent and chameleon-like politicians on the world scene." That is somewhat grand, considering the small size of Carrillo's party (claimed membership: 100,000) and the preference of most Spaniards for middle-road politics. Now Carrillo is trying to draw the more popular Socialists into a consensus on how to further democratize Spain, in order to blur their image as the dominant party on the left...
