...least a third less than they used to be," says Monsignor James A. Davin of St. Bernard Church in Mount Lebanon, Pa. At the same time, many renewal-minded Catholics are approaching the confessional in a more meaningful way-not as a mechanical means of cleansing their souls of sin but as a life-giving encounter with a forgiving...

...both priests and laymen to speculate on new ways to practice confession. Many theologians favor some form of return to the early church custom of group confession-as is done in many Protestant churches. In some Dutch churches, members of a congregation mentally express their sorrow for sin while publicly reciting an act of contrition, then receive absolution in a group from their priest, though private confession is available for those who want it. Still other Catholics have questioned whether confession need always be made in the presence of a priest. Although there are obvious dangers involved, at least...

...Grill. Priests see many reasons for the decline in frequency of confessions. One cause is the emphasis in the postconciliar church on the primacy of conscience-which means that lay Catholics are now far more certain of themselves as to whether or not they have sinned.

Stepping up to bat in the fourth inning he cracked a fastball into the rightfield bleachers, then blasted another even deeper into the stands with two on in the seventh, and followed that with a line drive sin gle in the eighth. Total RBIs: four. One would have been enough. On the mound now was Boston's other ace, Jim Lonborg, fully rested and feeling mean. Always the possessor of a smoking fastball, Lonborg had only a so-so record until the spring when Pitching Coach Sal Maglie...

Hitherto, Golding has preferred to present his characters almost as abstractions. Lord of the Flies was a laboratory demonstration of original sin taking place on a rather unreal island; The Two Deaths of Christopher Martin dealt with a mid-Atlantic castaway who seems to choose life with pain over easeful death, but is in fact already dead and in purgatory; The Spire set a drama of spirit and flesh in a remote time. The Pyramid represents no retreat from these tours de force, but Golding's command of fiction is now such that he can dress his tragedians...
