wrote in
ARNOVA-L 10/15/97: "This two-volume compendium by a Professor of
Law at
the University of San Francisco provides the first genuinely
panoramic view
of
the complex and often contradictory bodies of case and statute law
which
define the rapidly-changing landscape of church-state relations in
the
United States -- and does so from the theologically-informed
perspective
that grasps the important organizational differences between
religious and
religiously-tied entities."

on certain Standard Industrial Codes with large groups of both

recreation and exercise facilities and printing) and takes the
position
that the nonprofit organizations enjoy illegitimate advantages.
