...that the Europeans, protected for nearly 20 years by the U.S. nuclear umbrella, have always been loath to spend. In his 16th and farewell appearance before the ministers, U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk was as candid as Lemnitzer, telling the European partners that they must carry a greater share of the burden. Rusk and U.S. Defense Secretary Clark Clifford offered only an estimated $50 million in fresh U.S. aid.

Vatican II, for example, established the principle of collegiality-meaning that bishops share ruling power over the church with the Pope. Many theologians argue that Paul's unilateral decision on birth control makes a mockery of this principle.
