Moreover he points with
satisfaction to a number of
developments (which contrib

Germ, then, is not to condemn
or anathematize modern pro-

that after all this progress,

remains the problem that the

disputably there is. But how?
If | could develop the in
tellectual acumen needed for
answering that question, |
could solve all problems Of
theology, philosophy, physics
and any other ology, osophy

THE OTHER EVENING, my
wife and | went to the home
of friends, and there were four
or five couples, including us,
infesting the premises. AS is
customary, the men sat talk
ing in logical sentences-sent-
ences with beginnings and
endings - while the women
ran up their invisible anten-
nae and began exchanging
brain waves through a torrent
of verbiage.
Somehow, my attention was
distracted from the male con-
versation to the female spoken
hieroglyphics, and I heard a
woman asking my wife, rs
she a Catholic??"
In the tradition of my moth
er-in-law, she did not men,
ton whom she meant by
"She."
My wife replied calmly, just
as if she were making sense,
"She has six children"

sembly, repeated what | had
heard, and said to the woman,
"Now look. What l want to
know is, why don't my wife
answer your question instead
of going off on a tangent about
children?"
At that point I had to put
up with some whiskery wise
cracks from the men how OBJ
viously any woman with six
children must be a Catholic. |
demolished them by ticking
off the names of several coup
les who have six children and
aren't Catholics. Then ] turn
ed to the woman and repeat
ed my question.
YOUR WIFE DID answer
me-" she said. "The answer
was yes, the person | was in
quiring about is a Catholic"
"How do you know that was
the answer" | demanded, Il
heard what my wife said, and
all she said was She has six
children"
The woman refused to tell
me how she knew. Clearly, she
is part of the international
conspiracy of wives.
