Three Prophets Lost in Three Weeks in 1969
In 1969 U S Christianity mourned the deaths of Bernard J Sheil Harry Emerson Fosdick and James A Pike. Fosdick aged 91 years after retirement at Riverside Church faced ongoing denouncement by fellow Baptists while championing liberal Christianity and social issues. Sheil famed for Catholic Youth Organization and anti Franco stance defied expectations and McCarthy era pressure. Pike known for media engagement and controversial stances faced criticism from church leaders as his career moved through spiritualism and remarriage debates.
