...will revive the old virtues of agape and reverence. They reveal, says University of Chicago Theologian Dr. Martin E. Marty, "the exhaustion of a tradition: Western, production-directed, problem-solving, goal-oriented and compulsive in its way of thinking." Marty refuses to put the hippies down as just another wave of "creative misfits," sees them rather...
From the Chicago waterfront to the Mackinaw Bridge, the shores of Lake Michigan were taken over last month by dead alewives. The fish,*members of the herring family, washed ashore on every incoming wave, piling up on the beaches faster than bulldozers and tractors could clear them away.

For the moment at least, the encyclical would still public argument within the church on the issue, but it was unlikely to change the feeling of clerics who regard celibacy as a burden that is heavy without being sweet. Within the past three years, no fewer than 4,000 priests have asked Rome to release them from their vows in order to marry. A poll conducted...
