PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, APRIL 11, 1986 •
more by moral feeling than by reasoning•••• They love too much, hate too
much, and the same with everything else.
They think they know
everything, [which] is why they overdo everything.• (This quote is from
page 3 of the Rothman-Lichter book.) As Benjamin Hart wrote in the April
11, 1986 NATIONAL REVIEW:
You see� the rioters and flag-burners of the Sixties � �
the college deans and tenured faculty � America's major
universities. They are bitter about the country's sharp move
to the right, and are especially bitter about the increasing
conservatism among the nation's young people.... The college
establishment is a last enclave of Sixties-style leftism••••
America's real battlefront [is] the college campus.
Bow true. Marxism and other forms of far-left radicalism is a growing
force at American universities. There are now more than 500 courses on·
the philosophy of Marxism being offered. Marxist-oriented teachers form
powerful factions in the idea-oriented disciplines such as the
humanities, political and social sciences and economics. Marxist-style
ideas are also behind the popularity of new activist courses such as
ethnic, women and gay-rights studies. •About 250 ethnic studies programs
exist on campuses," wrote David Brock in the December 12, 1985 WALL
STREET JOURNAL, •and women's history, written mostly by neo-Marxist
feminists, is an accepted fixture at many schools.•
Speaking of causes and struggles, the people of New Zealand, reported the
April 11 NATIONAL REVIEW, might soon be in for their share:
The latest addition to the roll call of sinner states is New
Zealand--"a white racist state," according to the country's
National Council of Churches, which even wants the country
renamed •Aotearoa• [the older Maori name for the islands] ••••

liberation technigues.
This charge by New Zealand's liberal church hierarchy must come as a
surprise to the country's Prime Minister David Lange, who has done his
best to cultivate ties with the Third World, and especially to terminate
all sporting links with South Africa.
