Talk:William Sloane Coffin

Untitled
Under "Personal life" chapter; added his daughter Amy Coffin, and linked his first wife Eva Rubinstein to her own Wikipedia page. Yumgui — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yumgui (talk • contribs) 15:33, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Please correct your encyclopedia. William Sloane Coffin lost his son in a car accident...not a mountain climbing accident. For confirmation, read his eulogy to his son...which is available online.

Not Funny
Someone with a warped sense of humor(?) has added a sentence to the introductory paragraph that Bill was a supporter of Reagan and his milisary (sic) buildup.

I'd edit it; but it seems to be in a section not readily accessible. Could some good soul pleae delete the offending sentence?

Nothing could be futher form the truth.

No image appears. Sorry, I am not a computer scientist and I do not know how to fix it. 216.194.0.8 04:22, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Soviet front
"... President of SANE/Freeze (now Peace Action), the well-known Soviet front organization, ..." Need footnote.

"...He took sabbatical from Yale in 1973, hoping to write his memoirs and save his second marriage. The effort failed. In November 1974, he inflicted a hairline skull fracture on his second wife. He had begun to beat her when they quarreled. " Meeds footnote. --GangofOne 06:11, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

THis seems to be the origin of the stupid edits: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=William_Sloane_Coffin&diff=prev&oldid=48368333. Will revert. --GangofOne 06:18, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

A Great Man, Teacher, Christian, Human Rights Advocate
God Bless you, even though I never met you, I feel that I have know you all my life. I first learned of you from a book I read at my church All Saints in Pasadena, California. May you rest in Peace and may your family be at peace. "I want to get to heaven when I die", "They will know we are Christians by our love". Love Joe Omar Gonzales
