(urth) Problematic element in chronology - Red Giants

[Sergei SOLOVIEV]

Maybe it's my error, but it was some very similar title mentioned
by Wolfe, I will try to find what it was exactly. More
special books by Hawking appeared earlier, I've read Hawking and
Ellis on black holes in 70-es -
/Hawking/, S.W.; /Ellis/, G.F.R. (/1973/). The Large Scale Structure of 
Space-Time. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

> Secularists, humanists and quiet worshipers of an unpoliticized God have felt beleaguered, frustrated and unfairly disrespected. There's no energy on the non-zealot side of the cultural debate. There's no Voltaire, no Clarence Darrow, not even a Lenny Bruce to balance the stifling, censorious religiosity -- not even a Bill Clinton or a Jimmy Carter to show that religion doesn't have to resemble some Tom DeLay combination of contempt and pious hypocrisy. So the prayer, so to speak, was that the new pope might miraculously turn out to be a shot in the arm not just for anti-materialism but also for anti-religious humbug, anti-medievalism and anti-repressive orthodoxy.
