Black clergymen, in fact, have seemed to enjoy a confident tradition of "open ministry" that puts them in the forefront of church action. Pentacostalist Minister Frederick Douglass Kirkpatrick, 33, a member of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, believes ? and earnestly preaches ? that all races can live together better than they can separately. His principal ministry these days is folk songs, which he delivers in a rich Leadbelly bass, often on marches for peace in Washington or New York, and this month on a tour of some 20 colleges and universities through the South. Though a robustly spiritual...
...theologians are hardly alone in recommending the rediscovery of joy to a new generation of believers. In fact, the emphasis on the Dionysian element in life-celebration, song, dance, laughter-is fast acquiring a theology of its own. In The Feast of Fools, Harvey Cox presents Christ as clown and Christianity as comedy, because the world "should not be taken with ultimate or final seriousness."

Though he usually lunches with customers, he saves a couple of lunches a month to become better acquainted...
Perella is not happy with Castiglione. He sees him as a sophist who robbed love of the more highly charged and riskier mysticism of earlier, passionate orthodox kissers. In fact, after dealing with Castiglione, Perella registers a marked decrease in ardor for his major subject. The concluding chapter on the Baroque end of the Renaissance is not much more than a listless compilation of variations on kissing themes embellished with poetic examples. It is almost as if the professor had tired of cultivating his index cards and longed to be out doing field work...
...fact, no one yet knows precisely how much phosphate detergents contribute to the death of lakes. Charles G. Bueltman, vice president of the Soap and Detergent Association, testified last week that "phosphates in surface waters come from many sources, such as fertilizers, runoff from uncultivated lands and forests, human excrement, detergents and industrial wastes." Bueltman claimed that "the elimination of detergent phosphate alone could not mitigate or diminish excessive algae growth." If .detergents were banned, he hinted, housewives would revolt...
