...fleeting glimpse at the U.S., which played a central role in the coup in which Chile's democratically elected Marxist President, Salvador Allende Gossens, died. Chile is still coming to terms with the horrors that followed. While Pinochet, now 86, has been deemed - in both Britain and Chile - too ill to face trial, activists still call for Henry Kissinger to be prosecuted. U.S. Secretary of State at the time of the coup, he was widely quoted as saying: "I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility...
...wants to turn the church into a representative democracy, is only the most radical. Just a few miles away, a more moderate Boston faction annoyed Bernard Cardinal Law recently by suggesting the creation of an independent diocesan advisory council that would compete with a group he appointed.

Where the book could now turn heavy with plot or philosophy, "Crime and Punishment"-style, instead Paul casually continues his life, flirting with women and planning a vacation with his ill-earned gains. What keeps you reading is the mystery of "why," and the smart writing that refuses to answer the question directly. Instead you get a glimpse into the life of someone who could be your brother-in-law, whose story has as much drama and mystery as any overwrought...
...financial sector to run the classes. While most seminaries offer at least one business-oriented course on church management, fewer than 10% teach personal finance. "It's the great silent subject, a huge gap in pastoral training," says Dick Towner, who founded the Good $ense Ministry, in South Barrington, Ill...
