Conference for 50 years as a pastor, and as an Air Force Chaplain, and have served in my present Sacramento,CA area , is attempting to make an important statement regarding the critical issues of our day, and especially the positions the Board of Church and Society . I feel that I am in limbo here in the N. California area because the U.Methodist Church is doing everything to push such areas as same sex marriages, abortion rights, and disregarding the Biblical message of Christ's atoning work.

In fact, Reagan's words left little obvious imprint on the thinking of dissidents behind the Iron Curtain. The opposition movements in East Germany and Czechoslovakia were more peacenik than Grand Old Party; in Poland, Solidarity activists already had their own pope as a moral beacon. Neither the Washington Post nor the New York Times even ran Reagan's speech on the front page.
