William Sloane Coffin Jr. RIP

William Sloane Coffin Jr.; Chaplain Was Lifelong 'Disturber of the Peace': "Mr. Coffin called himself a 'Christian revolutionary' and believed that his outspoken activism sprang from the principles of his faith."

Would that thousands would rise up to take his place.

NPR Fresh Air with Terry Gross ran a decade old interview with Reverend Sloan. I was unaware of his great personal loss (his son was killed in a traffic accident) and was deeply moved by Sloan's humaneness and thoughtful introspection.
