BISHOPS'VIEWOF MIXEDMARRIAGE
InaforthcomingstatementonmixedmarriagetheAustralian Bishopsurgeyoungpeopleto"seriouslyconsiderchoosingapartnerof theirownfaith,"butoffsetthiswithanacknowledgementofthe couple'snaturalrighttomarry.
Thestatement,toheissued-nextTuesday,wasapprovedattheAugustmeetingoftheBishops'Conference.
Specifically,itiswritten tosupportPopePaulVI's documentonmixedmarriage,issuedin1970.
Historically,however,it willbeseeninstarkcontrasttothelasttimethe AustralianBishopsspoke onthematter,in1937,at theirplenarycouncilmeeting.
Thestatementtakesfor grantedthatasteadypercentage(halformoreof totalmarriages)ofCatholicsaremarryingnon-Catholicsandemphasisesthe needforChristianmotivationratherthanthenegativedangers.
CONTRAST
Thus,thepresentdocumentcontrastswiththe sternstepsthattheAustralianhierarchytookforty yearsagoinanaggressive attempttoforestallwhat wasfelttobeanalarming increaseinmixedmarriages.
KeytothenewAustralianapproachisthestatementbyPopePaulin1970 thattheChurch"discourages"mixedmarriage.
Traditionalcanonlaw statedformerlythatthe "Churchmostseverelyprohibitsmixedmarriage."
Indicativeofthemoodof 1937arethenumberofstiff decreesthathavebeenquietlydroppedinthemeantime.
Mixedmarriageswhich tillthenhadbeencelebratedatsidealtarswould henceforthbecelebratedin thesacristyorthepresbytery.Thelawlapsedinthe late1940's.
InVS.A.anadditional restrictionthatthedispensationwouldrarelybegrantedifthenon-Catholicpartywasthebridelapsedearlyinthewaryearswiththe pressureofdepartingservicemen'smarriages.
TheAustralia-widerequirementthatfivehoursof CatholicinstructionbegivenwasalteredinW.A.to twelvehalfhoursandhas lapsedpartlyduetothe physicalimpossibilityofa priestmaintainingsucha scheduleamongotherduties.
