There was an awestruck silence; Mrs. DuPont looked as if she'd never even seen anybody puke, Shapiro grinned weakly, very weakly, and said, "It's all right sir--the white wine came up with the fish." When he came back from the restroom after cleaning up as best he could, he found...-nobody. The bill was paid; DuPont had even left a tip.

Germany is to Christian theology what France is to wine, and Moltmann, 51, a colleague of Küng's at the University of Tubingen, is one of its most eminent Protestant thinkers. Moltmann's first major work, The Theology of Hope (1964), based on the somewhat neglected promise of Christ's coming reign in a kingdom of righteousness, was a ringing call to optimism and activism during the days of "God is dead" theology.
