believer and agnostic are ham
pered by phobias. inner com
pulslons or wrong notions
that have been drummed into
them by education or environ

What surprises me in deal
ing with such unbelievers is
the lack of any hostility to
religion. They are ready TO
talk about it even with priests
but you have a sense of SOME
inner mechanism throwing up
roadblocks as soon as you pre-
sent the traditional argu-
ments.
WE NEED COD. That is
obvious. But / think it's time
TO call a halt to this type of
preaching that says that an
unbeIiever must be unhappy.
It just isn't true. Many a
man has set up his own pri-
waite idols and has managed
TO get a lot of fun out of life.
| do believe that ordinarily
religion makes a man sublec-
lively secure and serene. But
we must not overlook the fact
that many a man is happy
in this life as long as he gets
what he wants rather than
what he needs.

been married for nine years

A. Nothing happens In the
world without Gods knowl-

ton as an enticement to sin
comes from the world, the
flesh and the devil, abusing
the gifts Of God, twisting God

is this help we mean when

Monsignor De Blanc is quoted.
We seriously doubt that

hardly the apostolic approach,

a wildly impractical solution.
NO ONE DENIES that there
are elements and trends in
modern society that are inim-
zeal to Catholic ideals. No one
can doubt that there is a dan

surrender of essential values.
But the answer lies not in
cutting ourselves off from
modern culture after the fash

How come the exclamation
point?
Well. there was the play
"Fiorello!" lying on the table
by which we read. Instantly the
mind went racing to the fact
that this $3.50 musical cap
tured this years Pulitzer prize.
How much. we wondered, did
the exclamation point have to
do with the judges decision?
Granting there was so little to
choose from, could it have been
possible that this punctuational
stress carried the day for Eli
orellol"?
With no intention of imput-
ing critical vulnerability to the
Pulitzer judges, explanatory
speech and writing are rare
enough to be startling these
days. Even Khrushchev, whose
style it fits, doesn't use the !,
possibly on the theory that it
would be knocked fiat by even
one of his milder sentences.

THE PREJUDICE: Critics,
even those who learned touch
typing, and certainly hundreds
Of thousands of typists with the
true professional backswing,
must be the great haters of the
exclamation point. 1t is the
only character on the keyboard
that requires four movements,
first the period, then the back
spacer, next the cap key and
finally the above the 8 key.
Who do the typewriter de-
signers think we are, Artur

THE FUTILITY OF 1T: AS
for authors who use the ex-
clamation point in titles, did
they ever really listen to any
one say "Oklahoma!" or Flo
rello!"?" Not singers on a
stage, understand, but mere
laymen who buy the tickets
that make such musicals sue
cessful? Singers get paid to
bang ultimate vowels. They can
be given orders, but not the
rest of us.
We always have and always
will just say Oklahoma and

way. Oklohomo and Fiarella.
No damned exclamation point
is going to change that. (mere

THE EXCEPTIONS: The
critic who spends a week off
meditating upon the abolition
of the exclamation point must
