   Please satisfy my curiosity, David.  Are you referring to _The Phenomenon
of Man_,  _How I Believe_  or some of his more mystic and autobiographical
writings, the name of which escapes me. I knew almost nothing of his personal
belief until I read the _How I Believe_.  One might INFER some things from 
is
other writings, to be sure.  Nothing like somebody coming right out and
telling you in plain language as he did.
Sincerely, 
                                     Frank
