Glide Memorial Pastor Preaches Love Over God to Youth
Rev A Cecil Williams leads Glide Memorial Methodist Church in San Francisco with a youth culture gospel. His 2000 strong congregation blends hippies and minorities, rejects traditional worship, and emphasizes social causes, jazz, and "free love" over references to God or Jesus Christ. Williams notes threats against the church and defends his unconventional service, while sharing his own path from conventional religion to a radical, love-centered ministry.

U.S. Poseidon missiles, with up to 10 warheads and 3,500 mile range, accentuate the gap as MIRV races continue amid SALT talks stalemate.
