...Science, Russia's tasteless contribution to the war-ragged Warsaw skyline, Khrushchev abruptly pulled the rug out from under the diehard Stalinists who oppose Gomulka in the name of Marxist purity. "These party members," said Khrushchev, "sometimes depict themselves as being the closest friends of the Soviet Union. But if one looks at these people realistically, it becomes clear that theirs is not a realistic, concrete, clear tendency...
Defendant Korpa had told the judge that he attended a Roman Catholic church, and to Baptist Eyman it seemed quite "normal and natural to tell the boy to go to church."
