...contemporary problems. Two months ago, however, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith concluded that Christ Among Us "was unsuitable as a catechetical text" and could not be made otherwise even with "substantial revisions."

While Greyhound charges $56.15 for a journey between Newark and Norfolk, for instance, a People Express ticket is just $23. Says Greyhound Spokeswoman Beth Meyer: "There was a time when that was one of our most heavily traveled routes. Now we've just about abandoned...
