LETTERS TO THE 'Trouble' Revisited To The Tlmea: Some time ago "Letters" writer referred to Unitarians as "trouble makeri." With true Christian charity I refused to be disturbed by the label. I did, however, take a moment to remind the author that JPSUS was probably the greatest -trouble maker" of all time. I used quotation marks around the phrase "trouble mak- or." As most people, know this means either a direct quotation or an unusual use of the term. In this Instance both apply. Christians must certainly be glad that Jesus was a "trouble maker." If He wasn't there would be no Christianity today.

He upset the applecart of established religion. He opposed Its conformist pressures. He criticized its unproductiveness. He went Into the Temple and upset the money changers. He angered the people who mouthed religious niceties.

He called the "church-goers" o( his day hypocrites, whited sepulchres clean to all appearance, but unclean inside. Symbolically, He cursed a fig tree that failed to bring forth good fruit. He told people that he didn't Intend to make religion a comfortable thing. That His religion, properly understood, would divide families because religious meaning is not an inherited characteristic. Oh, He caused a lot of "trou- On the day of Pentecost had permanently endeared him- iclf to only 120 people.

Someone has said that Jesus he world upslde And He certainly did! One recent letter said that Jesus was no trouble maker I guess that It all depends on how you read the record. I'm glad that He was. But I recognize, that If He came back today He would face the same problems that He did then. Unitarians are "trouble mak- WH because we ask the same questions that Jesus did. How can religion be made meaningful? How can hypocrisy be eradicated from our churches? What can we do about the "money-changers" in the temples? How can we make people see that they are not necessarily saved by church membership? How does one really make "brotherhood," "justice," "love," and all those, other principles and ideals that Jesus exemplified real? Today, anyone who asks why religion is failing is a "trouble maker." Jesus asked the question.

He'd have to ask it again today. We Unitarians feel that we are In good company. DAVID R. KIBBY Minister Unitarian Church Old Marplc Rd. Springfield Vatican Council Talk Set SWARTHMORE Dr.

To The Times: The average student has been anything but well groomed for the past few years and the request to change this habit has long been overdue. The change from grotesque hairdos and tight skirts to neat appearing young ladies, will be remarkable. What is regrctable though, is that this transition was initiated by the students themselves with a push from the school officials, and not by we, the parents, who are leaving more and more of our parental obligations up to the school authorities.
