Suspect Visited
Kinder Studios
BY MSGR.
NOEL C. BURTENSHAW
Rod Kinder is in the
recording business. Many
of Atlanta’s top notch ad
agencies produce their
radio and television spots in
Rod Kinder’s streamlined,
soundproof studio down
on Spring and 10th Street.
“I was really surprised,”
says Rod, who has operated
his business for 17 years at
the Spring Street location,
“when a couple of FBI
agents came to the studio
sometime ago and showed
me some pictures. They
wanted to know if I knew
the guy in the picture and
sure enough, I did. I could
not believe it.”
The man in question was
Wayne Williams, the man
charged with the murder of
Nathanial Cater, one of
the missing and murdered
persons from Atlanta.
“This man came to see
me,” says Rod, “in late
March of this year. He said
he had a group, a band, and
he wanted to buy time to
record some singers. He
said he would bring in some
young talent and use our
studio to put it all
together.”
Rod Kinder was ready
to do business with
Williams but agreement on
price could not be reached.
“I gave him our rates,” said
the well-known head of
Kinder Studios, “but he
wanted to pay only half. I
told him we could not do
business. He left and I never
saw him again. There was
nothing unusual at the
time. Now, of course, it all
seems very strange. ”
Rod and his wife, Maji,
along with sons Jeff and
Max, operate the music
studio where many groups
record. Son, Forde, who
once studied as a
seminarian for the
Archdiocese of Atlanta,
now works writing and
recording music in New
York, The family grew up
in the Cathedral parish.
“As soon as the agents
showed me the photograph
I knew him,” says Rod.
“The papers say he is
23-years-old but he looked
older when we talked. He
looked like he was 35 or 40.
I am told he talked and
worked in other studios in
the city too. But there was
no way we could do
business.”
Rod Kinder has had
many well known
celebrities pass through the
tape rooms of his quality
studios. While making his
recent movie, Burt
Reynolds was a frequent
visitor to Kinder Music.
Now another name, spread
across the front pages of
the nation and the world,
can be added to the list.
That name is Atlanta’s
Wayne B. Williams.

Twin Fetus’
Death Disputed
WASHINGTON (NC) - Killing a fetus afflicted with
Down’s syndrome, even though the procedure may have
saved the life of its healthy twin, has been called morally
irresponsible by pro-life leaders in Washington.
Reacting to the report that doctors last year killed the
abnormal twin after the mother threatened to abort both
fetuses, the heads of the U.S. bishops’ pro-life office and the
National Right to Life Committee said the procedure
nevertheless was life-destroying rather than life-saving.
According to a report in the June 18 issue of The New
England Journal of Medicine, doctors determined through
amniocentesis that while a 40-year-old pregnant woman had
one fetus developing normally, the other was afflicted with
Down’s syndrome, a chromosomal abnormality causing
mongoloid features and moderate to severe mental
retardation.
SELECTIVE TERMINATION
The unidentified woman, informed of a case in Sweden
in which “selective termination of an abnormal twin” was
successfully performed, asked that she be given a similar
procedure. According to the report, if it had been refused
she would have aborted both fetuses.
Doctors performed the procedure at 20-weeks gestation
by inserting a needle into the abnormal fetus’ heart and
withdrawing about half the blood of the fetus. At 40-weeks
a healthy baby boy was delivered, followed by delivery of a
non-living fragment of tissue which had been the abnormal
fetus.
The baby is now seven-months-old and reported to be
doing fine.
TECHNICAL AMBIVALENCE
Father Edward M. Bryce, director of the U.S. bishops’
Office for Pro-Life Activities, lamented in a statement that
science had not been used instead to ameliorate the
abnormal fetus’ handicap.
“This procedure highlights the ambivalance of technical
progress in our society,” said Father Bryce. He noted that a
few weeks earlier the same medical journal had carried a
report of a new treatment for hydrocephaly in which a
needle was inserted in a mother’s womb to drain off excess
fluid from her unborn child’s skull.
“Now the same technology has been used, not to cure,
but to kill,” he said.
While the physicians may have seen themselves as saving
the other twin’s life, “the fact remains that their own
actions were not life-saving but life-destroying, and that
they have arrogated to themselves the right to decide which
children are to live and which are to die,” Father Bryce said.

Spiritual ‘Thirst’
Evident In U.S.
BY DAN MORRIS
OAKLAND, Calif. (NC)
- “There is a great thirst in
our country for a
spirituality that will give
depth and meaning to the
people’s everyday lives,”
according to Dominican
Father Matthew Fox.
The well-known
theologian now works
full-time trying to help
them find it through what
he calls “creation-centered
spirituality.”
‘‘We have to
demythologize meditation
and mysticism,” said
Father Fox, who is
directing a five-week
program in creation-center-
ed spirituality at
Dominican College, San
Rafael, Calif., this summer.
“The word ‘mysticism’
has become for many a
distant thing, unreal,
whereas every one of us is
called to be a mystic and a
prophet at the same time -
and in our own ways, a
saint,” the priest said,
adding:
“The whole thrust of
my work is to try to recover
this kind of spirituality, a
spirituality that doesn’t
force us into monasticism.
Too much spirituality is
relegated to the
professional prayers and
has become distorted.”
The author and lecturer
underscored that
spirituality “belongs in the
world.”
“We must develop a
spirituality of work and of
celebration, of sexuality
and of earthiness,” he said.
“The basic meaning of
humility is to be close to
the earth. Jesus’ own
spirituality is earthy.”
Founder and co-director
of the Institute for
Creation-Centered
Spirituality at Mundelein
College, Chicago, Father
Fox stressed a holistic
approach to spirituality
that takes into account
intellect, emotions, body
and creative energies.
As a result, his
institute’s curriculum
includes courses in
“extrovert meditation” --
dance, photography,
pottery, musical
instruments, drawing,
cooking, calligraphy.
“We can promise people
a quality experience by
approaching the arts not as
art for art’s sake, but as
meditation. This also
breaks through the elitism
of art which separates art
from the ordinary people in
the pew, and helps recover
a sense of folk art and
creativity that other
generations took for
granted in things like
making their own clothes,
baking their own bread. In
urban society we are denied
these forms of extrovert
meditation because we go
out and buy everything.
“What we find is that art
leads to passion, which can
lead to compassion. This
kind of extrovert
meditation can unleash
powerful spiritual energies.
It calls on us not to
withdraw from our senses,
but to use them in a
transformative vision of
creation.
“Sure, there are plenty
of crosses and pain along
the way,” he said, “but in
dwelling on it we can miss
becoming filled with the
Spirit and becoming
co-creators.”
He says his program
reaches everyday Catholics.
“People in the pews read
my books and come to our
institute. No spiritual
program in the country has
the percentage of lay
persons that ours does.
Currently 35 percent are
lay persons, and we expect
it to be 45 percent next
year. I’ve investigated all of
the other programs, and
they are lucky if they have
five percent.
EXTERM INATIVE MEDICINE
Dr. John C. Willke, president of the National Right to
Life Committee, asked how physicians could turn away
from curing illness to what he called “exterminative
medicine.”
“This was an innocent living human baby whose only
fault was that he wasn’t as perfect as someone wanted him
to be,” said Willke. He said the procedure showed an “elitist
mentality” which says in effect, “Look, little guy, you just
don’t measure up to our standards of physical and mental
perfection and so we don’t have any room for you in this
world of ours.”
The report in the medical journal, authored by Drs.
Thomas D. Kerenyi and Usha Chitkara, both of the Mt.
Sinai School of Medicine in New York, conceded that the
three - to four-week gap between detection of the
abnormality and the procedure itself left open the
possibility that the wrong fetus might have been killed. Not
until a chromosomal analysis of the withdrawn blood could
be completed three days later were the physicians certain
they had killed the right fetus.
REASONABLY CERTAIN
While they were “reasonably certain” of the location of
the fetuses, the doctors urged “careful mapping out and
identification of the separate sacs” in future procedures.
Kerenyi and Chitkara also noted that there have been at
least three other reports in medical journals of cases in
which one twin was developing normally while the other
was suffering from Down’s syndrome.
In two of the cases the parents decided to complete the
pregnancy for the sake of the normal twin, while in the third
case the parents chose to abort both twins.
The doctors said in the present case the mother felt that
the presence of an abnormal twin would be an “unhealthy
experience” for the normal one. She also felt she “could not
face the burden of caring for an abnormal child for the rest
of her life.”
