produce"actiononbehalf ofjustice"and.further,he isadamantthatthepresent AdministrationinRhodesia ispractisingunjustdiscriminationagainstitscitizens.
ACTIONS,NOTWORDS
QuotingtheSynodofBishops,hesaysthatCatholicsmustusenotwordsbut actionsandmustgoabout the"dutyofpeacefullydismantlingunjuststructures."
Hesaysthatheandthe bishopsofRhodesiahave attemptedtoputintoactionwhattheChurchhas taught.
Hebelievesthatthisstand takenbytheChurchisthe onlyavenuepossible.
"Iamverypleasedthat inGod'sprovidencewe wereabletostandupand takethepositionthatwe hase."
CATHOLICS?
"TheAfricanscannow seethattheChurchisseriousinwhatitsaysandthat Catholicsaredoingwhatthe Popehastoldthemtodo."
BishopLamontapproacheskindlybutfirmlythefact thatapparentlyveryfewCatholicwhiteRhodesiansappeartosidewithhisstand orthatoftheChurchon thequestionofinjustice.
Heusesthephrase"morallyundeveloped"todescribetheattitudesofmany Catholicswhomakeupten percentofRhodesia'swhite population.

ThisfactisclearlyrecordedintwooftheGospels, whichsetforththeveritiesinwhichthefirstconverts werealreadybeinginstructedverbally asSaintLuke makesclearinhisdedicationtoTheophilus.BySaint Matthew,thevirgin'sconceptionistreatedasthefulfilmentofaprophecyattributedtoIsaiah-though thewordAlmonusedtodescribethemotherofthe PromisedOneisheldbymanyscholarstomean"young maiden"ratherthanvirgininthestrictsense.

ANENIGMA!
IntheNewTestament,however,afterthechapters concerningtheInfancyinSt.MatthewandSt.Luke, Maryalmostdisappears,exceptforafewcrucialmomentsMherSon'slife. TheaccountofherresponsetotheangelinSt. Lukeisnotwithoutobscurity,incidentally.Whydid sheaskhowshecouldbecomeamother"when knownotman"whenshewasalreadybetrothedtoSt. Joseph?

Thedifficultyaboutthis,however,isthatfemale vowsofvirginitywerealientotheJewishworld.

BELIEFQUESTIONED
However,thebeliefthatMary'svirginityrequired thatherbodyshouldremainunbrokenbyherSon's birth,thoughheldbytheFathersandanthroughthe MiddleAges,isquestionedinsomequarterstoday,on thepoundthatanunrupturedhymenhasnorealrelevancetovirginity,whichconsistsintheabsenceof sexualintercourse:andthatmotherhooditselfinvolves manybiologicalchanges,ofwhichthisistheleast. Moreover,St.Lukehimselfspeaksof"themale openingthewomb"asbeingespeciallyconsecrated. withreferencetoMary'spurification.
