...Director Alexander Rankins, a Negro, pounds an old upright piano, leading the al-tarside choir in standard Negro spirituals and other numbers from three books on the piano: The Catholic Mass, The Baptist Standard Hymnal and Gospel Pearls. Father Putnam talks about the meaning of humility?"A humble man must be strong. Jesus taught us that" ?and recommends a play that some of the neighborhood's angry young blacks are presenting in the Dashiki Project Theater, for which the parish supplies space. The Mass closes with Swing Low, Sweet Chariot. Membership is particularly strong among the young...
Might not such theological concepts impel men toward social revolution? Indeed, yes. U.S. Theologian Richard Shaull says that only at the center of the revolution can we "perceive what God is doing."

Matchmaker Dolly Levi sets great store by Horace Vandergelder's feed and grain store and decides to snare him for her own. She does. Curtain. In between their coy runaround, tiny complications arise. None of them matter, but several are the premises for blithe and sumptuous dance numbers. The most...
Amor Interruptus. Perella views early Christians as erotic mystics. The New Testament shows Christ to have been an active kisser, though in his case it must be assumed that kissing was the religious equivalent of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation...
