The high court rejected thai argument. Richardson and Austin acted in concert, which made Richardson equally liable for Taylor's death, the court ruled.

Taylor, 33, who was beaten, kicked and died after a 55-pound rock was dropped on his head Sept. 20, 1994. Police said the attack followed a botched ding deal. Marcus Richardson and Keeno Austin were each sentenced to 60 years in prison for Taylor's death: two other men were charged with lesser crimes in the case. In his appeal, Richardson argued that evidence presented at trial was not sufficient to support a murder conviction.

Richardson contended that because Austin actually dropped the boulder on Taylor's head, Richardson could nol be guilty of murder. BERNARD J. "B.J." MILLER, 67. Anderson, died July 9. He worked for Delco Remy Division of General Motors Corp.

For God was pleased to have all his dwell In him" (Colossians Even His enemies assertion that He was fully God, as well as fully human. This is important because only a divine Savior can meet our deepest spiritual need, which is forgiveness. The truth is we have sinned against God, and we are separated from; Him because of that. Christ came into the world to make our forgive- ness possible and to give us the hope of eternal life. We know this because Jesus-Christ not only died, but came; back from the dead by the power of God.

INDIANA DEATHS MY ANSWER Jt accessibility SERVICES 25 YEARS CALLUS, Dear Billy Graham: I agree Jesus was a great person and that God lived within Him, but I don't think that made -fJ 'ieve He was like Billy Graham every other person, because I believe we all have a little bit of God living in us. Our goal should be to reach out and make contact with the divine nature in each other. N.A. Dear Reader: It is true the Bible stresses we were all made In the image of God; that is, we each bear within our souls something of God's nature (although it has been disfigured by sin). Jesus Christ was unique, according to the Bible (which is our only reliable source of firsthand information about Him).

He did not have a small part of God residing within Him; He was fully.
