CHICAGO (NO) - At their spring meeting, U.S. Bishops put the spotlight on the individual Ca:holic, saying that plans for family ministry and social jlistice won't work unless people in the pews take responsibility for doing their part. In addition, the church's blueprint for evangelization - recommending that the family and the parish be used to reach the estimated 80 million Americans who don't go to church - was unveiled at the May 2-4 meeting of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops-U.S. Catholic Conference. Such internal matters were the major emphasis of the semi-annual gathering.

First Appeal Returns Total $404,636 The initial reports from some of the 113 parishes and the special gift donations have made the total of the Appeal to this date $404,636.70. Edward S. Machado of Somerset, this year's diocesan lay chairman, said: "The first reports from some parishes indicate a most favorable and generous" response by the people of the diocese to Bishop Cronin's call for the support of the apostolates of charity, mercy, education, health and child care, social services and other apostolic endeavors of the diocese. I hope every parish will have its reports filed at Headquarters in Fall River by the weekend."

ord campaign of $1,046,832.28 can be increased." Among agencies aided by the appeal are Regina Pacis Center in New Bedford, ministering to the city's large Hispanic population; St. Vincent's Home in Fall River, which provides year-
round programming for emotionally disturbed youngsters; a variety of counseling programs which offer Christ-centered guidance to individuals and families; and the newly-inaugurated pastoral care programs in nearly all hospitals in the diocese.

Education Convention
"Glimpses into Heaven" was the topic of Randolph W. Bromery, chancellor of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and convention keynote speaker. Sharing for the first time with any audience his personal perceptions of education and of children as students, he said he owed much to his children's grammar school principal, who said, "When I look into the bright eyes of my children, I see many glimpses into heaven. . . . I can witness purity, innocence and love straight frQm heaven shining through those children's eyes."
Music for convention Masses was supplied On Thursday by children from St. John Evangelist School, Attleboro, and on Friday by the chair of Bishop Gerrard High School, Fall River. During Thursday's Mass one of the young singers fainted and it was a tribute to her choirmates and to the training of Sister Mary Jessica Aguiar, RSM that not a beat of music was missed during the incident. Bishop Cronin was principal celebrant and homilist for Friday's Mass, bringing to conven· tion delegates the message from the bishops' spring meeting that he had just attended in Chicago that . the work of Christ is the. work of every Christian and that all must participate in the task of evangelization.

the rnoorin~ Vote and March for Life, not Abortion Here are two statements that should be read with due consideration by Catholics and non-Catholics alike wh:> really do care about life. The first is from a press release from Massachusetts . Citizens for Life on a recent federal court ruling on parental consent. "By ruling parental consent unconstitutional, the federal district court in Boston has dealt another devastating blow to family life. "Doctors may now perform an invasive procedure on unmarried minor girls which may affect the rest of their lives without the knowledge of their parents. . "Any doctor could be sued for assault and battery if he removed a minor's appendix, administered local anesthesia, or took a stitch for a laceration without parental consent. We ask: why the double standard? "Today's ruling is a malevolent attack on the natural rights of parents and the entire family structure. Last year's poll in the Boston Globe showed the public was against such a Haw. "We invite all outraged citizens who share our concem to come forward now and work for the defeat of all those elected officials who vote, and vote, and vote to use our taxes for payment of abortion. It is time to put an end to taxation without representation." The root cause that prompted .such a statement shows how far we have let things get out of hand. Voter apathy is one of the prime reasons why many public officials could not care less about life. Such attitud.es are reinforced by statements from lead路路 ing foundations that deride and scoff at pro-life activities. Such an attitude is clearly shown in a letter received by The Anchor fJrOm the Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter of the National Foundation - March of Dimes. The executive director of this chapter wrote in part: "This chapter stands ready to accept any new applications for genetic services and will not be pressured by antiabortion forces to alter our policies and programs. I appreciate any action you might take to better inform the residents of Southeastern Massachusetts of the goals and objectives of the March of Dimes." Well, the executive director can be well assured that we call to the attention of our readers the apparent proabortion attitude that permeates the literal sense of the quoted statement. If such be the case, then this chapter of the March of Dimes does not deserve one red cent from any Catholic in this diocese. In the case of abortion, all of us should realize that there is no middle ground. You are either for or against life. Otherwise you start playing God. It is indeed most unfortunate that such a defiant spirit should permeate the mentality of a foundation that has accomplished such notable medical progress in the past. Why must i.t now tarnish its image? This paper urges you that you support life, vote for life and support only pro-life medical foundations.

The Cambodian Holocaust By Father John B. Sheerin. CSP A few days after the showing of "Holocaust" on TV, Jimmy Carter let fly with a fusillade at the Cambodian government. It was the strongest statement made by the ,President since he took office 15 months ago. He condemned Cambodia as "the worst violator of human rights in the world tOday." From Cambodian refugees Carter had learned of "mass killings, inhuman treatment of the supporters of the previous government . . . the total suppression of recognized political and religious freedoms as well as deprivation of food and health care." The president called on the other countries of the world to ,register protests. What has all this to do with the "Holocaust" film? I mention -it here because there were many viewers of the film who were shocked and outraged by Nazi butchery but were content to forget about it because "it can never happen again." Carter's protest proves that a large-scale slaughter such as that in Germany can happen again. It is happening in Cambodia. It is estimated that a million people have heen killed there since the communist regime, aided by Red China, has been attempting to purge the supporters of the previous, Cambodian regime. A TV series on CBS a few weeks ago showed some ghastly scenes that took place in Cambodia. And one, that spoke louder than words was a view of the great city of Phnom !Penh, the , capital, that has now become a ghost city. Not a single human being was vjsible on the streets of what had been a bustling metroPolis. Where were the inhabitants?' Only God knows -and .the mi.litary assassins. We saw shots of women and children out in the countrysides, hard at work like chain gangs in Geor-
gia a century ago. Only a few men could be seen. The film incidentally was fl'Om Yugoslavia. We could not expect the hatchet man,Pot Pol, ruler of Cambodia, to allow an American imperalist film crew into the ghost city, Phnom Penh. once when Pot 'Pol was asked what happend to Phnom Penh, he blithely responded that he could not feed the people in the big city and so he moved them to the country. WiUiam Buckley, Washington Star columnist, in his April 21 article, said that there is no way of undoing what the Nazis did in the holocaust but that we do profit from reminding ourselves about it "by resolving that such a thing shall not happen again." Such things are happening said Buckley, in Cambodia just as they happened in the genocidal war against the Ibo tribe in Biafra and shortly before that, in Ruanda and 'Burundi. where the dominant tribes slew others with a vengeance Eichmann would have envied. ' The holocaust should not happen again, but to be realistic we know that it can happen again, if we do not stay on top of anti-Semitism. After My Lai, we said that such atrocities would never happen again in American wars. I am', not too sure. All wars are hell and we have no guarantee against American involvement in another Vietnam or worse. I did however hear a remark recently that gave me a lift. Haynes Johnson, on the Agronsky and Company TV program, said that the phenomenal response to "Roots" and "Holocaust" was evidence of the increasing sincerity and maturity of the American public.' He felt that such an overwhelming response would have been inconceivable in the America of 10 years ago. I think that the specific type
of genocide that took place in Nazi Germany almost 40 years ago could not happen here because of our democratic ideals. There is an everlasting itch in human nature to improve the people around us. I don't refer to the very laudable desire to help a neighbor improve himself and his fortunes, but I have in mind that noxious itch to impose our kind of perfection on the people around us. Stalin had this itch to force his people into a Brave New World. Hitler had the itch to improve Germany by purging it of Jewish blood. Democracy his its faults but in peace time at least it knows how to make short shrift of men who aspire to become dictators like Hitler or Stalin.

Bi'shops Stress Personal Duty Continued from Page One Amendment, never got off the ground. Before the general meeting, the bishops' Administrative Board voted to withdraw the Southern Africa statement from consideration because of rapidly changing situations in Rhodesia, South Africa and Namibia. The decision to postpone consideration of the statement indicated "no lack of conviction about the issue," sa!sl Archbishop John R. Quinn of San Francisco, NCCB-USCC president, at a press conference after the meeting, but rather recognition of the realities of the situation." The statement as proposed by the USCC Committee on Social Development and World 路Peace called on the U.S. government to restrict and discourage U.S. business from investing in South Africa and its trust territory, Namibia, and to abide by U.N. sanctions against Rhodesia. The ERA question, brought up when an ad hoc committee on Women in Church and Society asked to issue a statement in its own name supporting the ERA, was the subject of intense lobbying pro and con. In its .statement, the women's committee, chaired by Bishop Michael McAuliffe of Jefferson City, rejected charges that passage of the ERA would harm the family or adversely affect antiabortion e路fforts. But the Administrative Committee decided instead to stand by a 1972 conference policy which concludes "the doctrinaire character and broad sweep of the amendment may very well destroy the unity essential to a stable family relationship." By far the major topic of discussion at the bishops' meeting, however, was the plan of pastoral action for family ministry, which was approved unanimously after a preliminary discussion, an afternoon of workshops and several amendments. It calls for diocesan planning for family programs beginning in 1979 and implementation of parish programs and celebration of a Family Year in 1980, to be followed by a decade of "reflection and research toward the development of quality family life programs, and an emphasis on the family's social mission. Its major emphasis is on effect-
ing change in individual families by involving them "like-to-like ministry," such as divorced Catholics counseling the divorced and parents aiding other parents. The Call to Action plan approved at the meeting puts a similiar emphasis on individual actions in the area of social justice. The five-year-plan, the U.S. bishops' response to the 1976 Detroit Call to Action conference, outlines actions required in six areas; education for justice; church and people; justice; human rights; and world hunger.
Dominicans Continued from Page One 1887 when the area was part of the Providence diocese. The church then located on Hunter Street. was already 10 years old and the original French national parish for the Fall River district. It soon prospered under the Dominicans to the extent that expanded accommodations were needed. The present South Main Street location was selected and the church was designed by Canadian architect Napoleon Bourassa to rival the Canadian shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre. Mortar and stone, however, were not the primary contributions of the Dominican Fathers. More important were their apostolic works, especially in the field of education. Dominicansponsored schools were established throughout the city, esspecially in the South End and Maplewood areas, and were finally consolidated in St. Anne's School, with a capacity of 1500 students. . Two Dominican priests were also responsible for the founding of St. Anne's Hospital, one as the person responsible for bringing the Dominican Sisters of the Presentation to Fall River to staff the facility and the other as its architect. Next Sunday's program will include a 5 p.m. Mass of Thanksgiving, with Bishop Cronin as principal celebrant and homilist, and a banquet at the Condesa restaurant in Somerset. Banquet tickets are available at St. Anne's rectory and several Fall River business establishments.
Another major action item considered by the bishops - a proposal to consolidate nine national collections into four - drew sharp criticism from many bishops who feared the total amount contributed by Catholics woul:l go down with fewer collectiom;. The proposal was withdraw1 and the bishops' Administrative Committee was asked to study the situation further. Archbishop Quinn said th ~ spring meeting had three main accomplishments: the family lif~ and Call to Action plans and a presentation on a national evangelization campaign by Archbishop Francis T. Hurley of Anchorage, Alaska. Archbishop Hurley said th路~ first stage of the campaign will zero in on the unchurched and rely primarily on "one-to-one" contact with the 80 million unchurched Americans through Catholic families and parishes.
Continued from Page One conate ministry of service. He said that stress must be placed on the role of the wife in her husband's vocation. "It is imperative," said the director "that during the formation program the wife be encouraged to grow and develop with her husband." During his homily, Archbishop John F. Whealon of Hartford, principal celebrant of the Eucharistic liturgy closing the assembly, discussed the possibility of women deacons. He said that much theological study would be needed in the matter and that it was unlikely that a decision would be forthcoming in the nE\ar future. Directors of permanent aiaconate programs in New England met during the day and resolved: -That the Bishops' Committee on the Permanent Diaconate and the National Association of Permanent Deacon Directors be urged to co-sponsor one annual national meeting rather than two separate gatherings; -That the New England Deacon Assembly become an annual event; -That New England directors meet on a regular basis; -That greater use of the media be encouraged in order to correct misunderstandings regarding the permanent diaconate. Assembly workshops were held in the fields of ecumenism, hospital and nursing home ministry, work with prisoners, the aged, youth, alcoholics, the deaf, families, students and Hispanics. Additionally, each deacon director conducted a session during which he explained his diocesan program.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. May 11, 1978
A Depressing Study of the U.S. Catholic Church
By REV. ANDREW M. GREELEY I";
I will confess that I am irked by the Gallup/Catholic Press Association study of the state of American Catholicism. I am not irked because the CPA commissioned the study or because they chose Gallup to do it. It's a free market and people can 'purchase their research from anybody. Nor am I upset because the Gallup findings are at odds with previously reported National Opinion Research Center findings. When people ask, "How do you explain the fact that Gallup proves you wrong?" my response is that Gallup does not prove us wrong, that given the different wordings of some questions the research confirms rather than refutes our own findings. The only difference I can find
between the Gallup and NORC findings is that the former notes an upturn in church attendance while we do not. However, eV('n this is not a real difference, b~ cause we do not report increases or decreases in church attendance until they have been sustained for two years. Nor am I irked because Mr. Gallup inshits that his research represents "good news" for tte Church. The issue here is whether one chooses to say it e glass is half-empty or half-full. Our report was that although many Catholics still define themselves as such, and affiliate with the Church in many different ways, they reject her right to teach them in certain critical areas, such as race and sex. Th'"s is bad news for the Church. Mr. Gallup reverses the rhetoric and says that although many Catholics reject the Church's right to be a definitive teacher, nonetheless they still a':filiate with the Church and engage in many different forms of religious behavior, and this :s good news for the Church.
Uoth statements are true; there is nocofltradiction between them I leave it to Church leadership whether. they react joyously or not to the thought that some four-fifths of their membership reject the teaching of the encyclical "Humanae Vitae." What frosts me about the Gallup/CPA study is rather its resolute inattention to previous NORC research on the same subject. There is nothing in the Gallup/CPA report that we did not anticipate three years ago. This does not mean that their report should not have been done; it does mean that intellectual honesty, scholarly integrity and human graciousness would seem to demand that they acknowledge the existence of previously reported resea.rch. We always carefully footnote Mr. Gallup's findings in our work, and I do not think I am unjustifiably affronted when he and the Catholic Press Association ignore ours. Lest Church leaders get too
confident about the good news from Gallup, let me note some other, as yet unpublished, NORC findings: Only about 20 percent of American Catholic teen-agel's admire the life that priests and nuns lead. Only a quarter of them say they ever thought of being a priest or a nun. Only a quarter say they can feel close to a priest. A little more than Ii third think that priests are excellent at understanding the problems of teen-agel's. And only 16 percent of the Catholic adolescents in the country think that sermons are excellent. In 1963, 70 percent of Catholic teen-agers thought premarital sex was wrong now only 40 percent think so. If you want to use Mr. Gallup's approach of the half-full glass, you can say that despite all the changes, there are still two-fifths of the Catholic teen-agel's in the country who think that premarital sex is sinful. But I defy Mr. Gallup or anyone else to make good news out
of the finding that only 16 percent of the Catholic kids in the country are impressed by the quality of the sermons they hear. There was one appaJling lapse of professionalism in the Gallup survey. Respondents were asked whether Latin Mass should be PERMITTED in their own parish. Sixty-seven percent agreed, to the delight of Catholic traditionalists and the misunderstanding of the secular press. The Chicago Tribune, for example, headlined the story, "Most Catholics Favor Latin Mass." I am simply astonished that the Gallup organization did not think to ask whether the respondents preferred the English or the Latin Mass. Or was someone at Gallup or the CPA loading the dice? In any event, and for the record, 87 percent of U.S. Catholics approve of the English liturgy. They are true pluralists, in other words. They'll permit the Latin Mass, but they like the English Mass. Perhaps that's too subtle a distinction for the Gallup folks to grasp.
Thie Artist: A Parable for t'he Also-RaIns Iy MARY CARSON
It was late as the old artist sat by his kitchen table stirring an already cold cup of tea. His sweater was so worn and patched it no longer kept him warm. He pul1ed it closer, trying to ward off a chill that was .coming from inside his bones. He was weary. But his weariness was not fatigue. He felt he was a failure. Never, in all his years, had he painted one picture exactly as he had wanted to. He leaned heavily on the table
to help himself to his feet ar;d shuffled to ::-Jis bed. As he passed the mirror, it reminded him that his grey ha::r was unkempt. Perfunctorily, he ran his har:d through it . . . but that didn't change the need for ~l haircut and a shave. He refused to acknowledge the reflection ... ar.d slumped to his bed. The won:. slippers fe] readily from his feet. There was r:o other preparation for sleep, but it didn't matter for sleep would not come anyway. Every tirre he closed his eyes the vision of "his painting" haunted him. For years he had tried . . . btlt could never capture it on canvas. Yet night after night it WB.S so clear in his mind . . . The o~ly way to escape it was to reach th,~ light. Reaching overhead, his han i swayed in the blackness till he
found the string that would chase the specter. He found it both amusing and humiliating that one bare lightbulb had such power over his mind. His hand groped the bed until it caught the corner of Ii threadbare portfolio. Drawing it out, he remembered the days when his ta.lent was young and his aspirations indomitable. The first painting had been done when he was very young. Being too anxious, he hadn't prepared the canvas properly. It had been a beautiful picture . . . but now it was faded, his message lost. With the second he had taken great care. He had worked dili-" gently, used all the best materials and followed the time-tested techniques. But in spite of his precaution, some of the materials were faulty. Studying the
finished picture now, he realized the colors had changed. It was distorted . . : no longer conveying his original intent. Then he came to the one . . . the one that was to be "his painting." That was when the inspiration had overpowered him with a vision that was magnificent. Yet remembering the long labor on it, all that struck him was that the painting seemed to have a life of its own, pulling itself away from his original theme. The picture had bold brilliance where he had envisioned soft muted shades ... and soft areas had developed a fire of their own. The finished painting was beautiful . . . but so far from his original plan. The next painting he thrust into a carton of trash . . . then drew it back and replaced it in
the portfolio. Studying it always hurt. That had been the closest to his dream . . . and vandals had destroyed it. The beginnings of a smile softened his eyes as he studied the next. It had been done later, at a time when he could not get high quality materials. Yet there was something beautiful and tender about that painting. Replacing them gently under the bed, he tried once more to sleep. His mind again studied every little detail of "his painting," every bit was so clear . . . But he knew it would never be . . . There were no materials left.. . A tear slipped down his furrowed cheek. He wondered if there was anyone else in the world who had spent his lifetime not quite able to achieve that which he had set out to do.

Let's grow older, and happier and let's do it together. Right now, Catholic Golden Age includes Bishops, Priests, Brothers, Sisters and tens of thousands of faithful Catholics just like you. We are also very grateful that Bishop Fulton J. Sheen's articles are featured in every issue of our membership newsletter. And we extend a special thanks to the many Bishops, who have praised the work of our organization and have taken an interest in your welfare by lending their support in prayers for Catholic Golden Age. The many money-saving opportunities described in this announcement are made possible through the mass purchasing power of our organization. When you join your fellow Catholics age 50 and over, you become part of a mass buying force entitled to discounts not available to you as an individual consumer. This is my personal invitation to join. Enjoy your golden years as you should -as a member of Catholic Golden Age.

By Father John Dietzen Q. A small study group I belong to just read the Book of Judith in the Old Testament. We were puzzled: How can the Bible hold up as a model such violence and living as this woman showed? Do we have to believe that really happened? A. In this, as in all parts of the Bible, it is important that we try to understand the spiritual truth which the writer intended, and which the people understood in it when he wrote it. After all these centuries, it is impossible for us to determine exactly how historical these events were - or whether the heroine of the story ever really existed as she is described. Perhaps the book is woven around some actual event, or maybe much of it is meant only as a kind of parable. Whichever is the fact, however, the purpose of this beautiful, if somewhat bair-raising tale is to remind the Jewish people .and ourselves of the love and . power of God in delivering His people from slavery and other evils, and of how this divine power is shared by those who are faithful and trust in Him. The lesson is not that we cut off the heads of those we don't like, but that incredible beauty and strength come mainly from the inside of a person - from one's courage, goodness, and genuine love for one's neighbor. Q. Must a person have a personal reference or sponsor to enter a religious order? I have a handicap, and' my brother tells me that if someone has a physical illness it is a sign that the individual doesn't have a religious vocation. What about handicapped men and women who are otherwise healthy? A. As you know, religious

orders of men and women vary greatly in the types of work they do in the Church. Naturally, the mental and physical qualifications would vary accordingly. A missionary in a foreign land needs certain abilities that a high school teacher might' not need; and both of these would differ from the requirements of a more contemplative community, which demands its own physical and mental qualities. Some illnesses or handicaps would naturally make life in a religious community difficult or impossible. But religious communities exercise such a variety of service today that it is en· tirely possible your handicap would not rule out the religious life. My suggestion is that you write to a priest, Brother, or Sister whom you know, perhaps in the religious order that you are most drawn to, and ask .their advice. You don't lose anything by trying, and with some asking around, and with some' prayers, you may find just what you're looking for.

VaticClIR I
Louis Dupre
By Father Alfred McBride
By Father David Tracy
During his aengthy rule of the Catholic Church (1846-78), Pius IX lost the Papal States and the church's secular power, undaunted, he turned this apparent disaster into an extraordinary victory for the spiritual authority of the papal office. Utterly devoted to the concerns of the chut:ch, Pius exhibited rockhard religious faith coupled with an astute capacity to win unparalled devotion' to the· pope from millions of' ordinary' Catholics. Liberals of the day. groaned at his conservative ·policies but he combined conS4~rvaiive 'with populist leanings. Unlike kingly pontiffs before him, Pius loved to be out with the. peElple., He walked about Rome· meeting, laughing, talking and. trading stories with the people ~ an endearing trait partially picked up by Pope John XXIII a century later. iIt was ,Pius IX who introduced the modem massiVe papal audiencesas instruments of influence and contact with hundreds of . thousands of the ordinary faithful. His effort to personalize the papacy was accompanied by what is caMed the Romanizing of the church. Previously bishops of various local churches Germany, France, Spain, Austria, Hungary - had acted fairly independently of Rome in many matters. Though in faithful communion with the Holy See, they nevertheless prized their individual differences. But the twin forces of Protestanism and the rise of the secular liberal states created what church historians call "ultramontanism" (literally, beyond the mountains _. or ~ooking south of the Alps). The national churches north of the Alps faced hostile Protestant and secular liberal states. What more natural. for them tc do, but to look south to Rome to find a defense against the whims of unfriendly rulers and aggressive hostile intellectuals. Thus national c:hurches with few exceptions, were willing to internationalize, so to speak, and centrailize the forces of the church in Rome. Living as long as he did, Pius IX was able to install like-minded bishops in major dioceses such as Westminster, Armagh, Vienna and Munich. Keeping in mind Pius IX's popularizing of the papacy and history's centrali:dng of the church in Rome, it is easier to see why the doctrine of infallibility came to the fore at the First Vatican Council in 1870. It was a doctrine consistent with the renewed spiritual authority of the pope and with the "unity in strength" movement characterized by the centralizing of Tum to Page Thirteen
In our century the role of the intellectual in Catholicism is vital. One of the most crucial intellectual rol~s. is that of the philosopher whose task allows him to reflect upon the very meaning of truth and reality. In the Catholic tradition, philosophy has always played a central task in the development and understanding of the faith. From the earliest Christian apologists through the great systems of Augustine, Aquinas and Bonaventure, the great Catholic thinkers have been both theologians and philosoph'ers. In our own century, we tum to thinkers like Gabriel Marcel, Jacques Maritain, Bernard Lonerg~n and Karl Rahner to witness this great philosophical tradition at work. For many, Professor Louis Dupre continues this tradition in his own groundbreaking work in theology and the philosophy of religion. Born in iBelgium, Dupre has taught for most of his career in the United States. He was for many years at Georgetown University before being appointed to the chair of Catholic theology and philosophy at Yale. He was first known for his interpretations of the philosophies of Kierkegaard, Hegel and Marx. With the 1972 publication of "The Other Dimension: A Search for the Meaning of Religious Attitudes," Dupre became internationally recognized as one of the foremost living scholars on the meaning of religion. This magisterial book provides penetrating criticisms of theories which try to reduce religion to psychological or sociological realities. It also offers erudite and original interpretations of all the major religious realities: signs, words, myths, the reality of the sacred, the names for God, creation, alienation, sin and salvation, and, above all, mysticism. Above all, the reader cannot fail to note that here is a philosopher of the first quality who understands not only the great Catholic philosophical and theological traditions but also the often neglected Catholic mystical tradition. . Louis Dupre helps his readers to see how the experience of the mystic is essentially the religious dimension of our lives which each believer shares. The mystic, therefore, is not strange or alien to the .experience of faith shared by all Catholics. Rather, he has been gra~ed to experience more deeply the same faith experience which every Catholic has a vocation to nurture. American Catholicism has been enriched by many cultures. In Louis Dupre's work, we find the Catholic mystical tradition of Belgium as wen as the huTurn to Page Thirteen

Pius IX: Pope of Controversy'
THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall ~ iver-Thurs. May 11, 1978
Pope of Controversy Continued from Page Twelve cessfully archbishop of Spoleto and Imola and was made cardinal in 1840. It was his apparent willingness to compromise, to negotiate, which tipped the scales in his favor in the papal election of 1846. For a while his actions seemed to substantiate this judgment, but it -became increasingly clear that Pius IX would never allow constitutional government in the Papal States. His increasingly obvious political incompetence, coupled with an economic crisis, led to an uprising in which the papal prime minister was assassinated. The pope had to flee but, with the help of a French army, was'able to regain Rome. . He lived, however, in -an atmosphere of tension and fear, and his reaction was to become even more adamant in his stand against new ideas, abetted by myopic advisers. He was able to hang on for another 10 years, during which he became more and more con-
Secular Saints Continued from Page Twelve unfinished job of "redeeming" our own hour of history. But both self-trusting humanists and faint hearted Chrisitians must ultimately discover that the blood stained face of history is the blood stained face of one whole man - the Christ who sums up all creation in himself. It is he who is saving and he who is being saved. All need to hear and believe that glorious proclomation of the Second Vatican Council: "The Lord is the goal of human history, the focal point of the fongings of history and {:ivilization, the center of the human race; the joy of every heart, and the answer to all yearnings." Either a God of love is bringing mankind to the fullness of its stature by a slow laborious emancipation from misery through the power of Christ's death and resurrection or mankind's whole perilous adventure is absurd.
Vatican I Continued from Page Twelve the Catholic Church in the Roman See. Historians point out that formal definitions of dogma are usually responses to religious debates and questionings as well as the result of cultural influences. The Council of Chalcedon ,in the fourth century had defined the divinity and humanity of Jesus; Trent in the 16th century affirmed the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist; Vatican I in the 19th century proclaimed papal infallibility to stem the possible crumbling of the international character of the church. While an electric storm raged outside, 535 bishops approved the doctrine of infallibility on March 18, 1870, in the great hall of St. Peter's Basilica. It heralded unprecedented devotion to the pope and remarkably conserved the universal character of the church.
vinced that he was God's agent in a battle with the forces of evil, thus confusing politics with religion 'and identifying, for all practical purposes, the temporaa power of the papacy with its spiritual mission and prestige. Since he would not bend, he had to break, and on Sept. 20, 1870, Italian troops marched into Rome and the centuries-old Papal States were no more. Rather than face reality and accept the proffered Law of Guarantees, he preferred to shut himself up in the Vatican. Thus began the so-called Babylonian Captivity of the papacy, which lasted until 1929. . Freed from defending and ruling the Papal States, Pius turned to strengthening the church from within, in line with then current theological views of her nature. He tightened Rome's authority and control, and the result was an amazing centralization of function and authority in the Vatican. Still, Catholic people throughout the world venerated him as a courageous defender of the church, a martyr to the truth. When the ,First Vatican Council (1869-70) prociaimed the doctrines of papal primacy and infallibility, they applauded loudly. In reality, he was everything the faithful believed him to be: profoundly spiritual, a man of principle, possessed of a most engaging personality. Despite external troubles he had not neglected the more important concerns of the church. He signed concordats with Russia, Spain, Austria and many Latin American countries. He reestablished the hierarchy in England and the Netherlands, erected 206 new dioceses and vicariates apostolic, and fostered a far-flung missionary endeavor. His proclamation of the Immaculate Conception (1854) gave a powerful impetus to Marian devotion. So many of these accomplishments are forgotten in the furor occasioned by his publication of the unfortunate Syllabus of Errors. AU in all, he was a great and good man, hampered by the enduring effects of his childhood illness, by the ineptitude of his staff and by an ecclesiology that had become some what detached from its Gospel roots. He died on Feb. 7, 1878, venerated by millions, rejected by millions, misunderstood by millions more. One day history may achieve a more balanced view of him.
Louis Dupre Continued from Page Twelve manist tradition of Erasmus and the philosophical reflections of Pascal. To unite these seemingly diverse traditions with the rich experiential character of American religious thought and the demanding skill in rigorous analysis of contemporary philosophy is no small task. But in Dupre's writings one finds those skills and traditions reinterpreted in a modern and original fashion. For in his work the philosophical reality of Catholicism lives anew.

'Jesus- takes on another dimension when seen through the ayes of women.'
-
-
-
~~
Indeed I became thoroughly involved in the program. Ire· called how often when I was teaching CCD we discussed these subjects. Girls who had been spoken to gruffly would point out that never did Jesu;; speak like that. Jesus takes on all{)the: dimension when seen through the eyes
of women. His conversations with them were never condemning. He never put them down, never insulted them. How His eyes would blaze were He to hear some "chauvinistic pastors"! Jesus had to be two things for sure: the greatest communicator who ever lived and the most marvelous gentleman who ever dealt with women. In an age when women were sold like hea:1s of cattle, when a man could divorce a woman for parting her hair the wrong way, how few men who called themselves Christian ever really heard or cared what Jesus said. And they were the ones who were running things. No wonder the men around Jesus were astonished when they saw how he treated women. The woman at the well, for instance: when one considers the culture of the time and realizes that Jesus showed that despised woman all the gentleness and consideration. due another human being. He told her exactly what her life was yet she was not offended. Jesus was such a tender man that He could have said anything to anybody and yet not hurt them. The verbal part of communication is really less than 10%. The rest of it is the tone of voice, eye contact, and how well we list€n to the other person as he or she talks. In all of this we can learn from Jesus.
Why do people lie? Lying only breaks their hearts And tears their lives apart Makin' them cry -, tell me why Not even if I tried Even if I lied a little Oh, I know she'd leave me She'd stay by my side Tell me why Do the people say "She ain't loving you anyway· So why you keep believin', brother? She'll keep makin' her time Right before your eyes" Tell me why they gotta lie When I looked I had to look again In my eyes a revelation In her arms the fascination of a friend Now I let 'em know When people say, "I told you so" I say, "Learn" don't come easy, baby And I been making'like a fool" Tell me why is it true? Why? Tell me why do people lie? Written by Kenny Loggins and Eva Ein; Sung by Kenny Loggins (c) 1977, Milk Money Music ~enny Loggins is best known as part of the duo, Loggins and Messma, but is now singing on his own. This song is from his latest album, "Celebrate Me Home." It relates the happenings of an unreciprocated love. Gradually the singer discovers that the other person has been untrue to him. ~e asks why people lie. Another way to state the question might be, How can another be careless with trust and personal vulnerability?" The song is rich in content for comment. When we enter into any type of love relationship, many possible roads for growth develop. Building a relationship does not happen quickly. Even those who "fall in love at first sight" eventually have to backtrack. Our persons are complex and need time and space to reveal themselves to another. Real love commitment brings this time and space. Our growth in relationships is like the growth we see in nature: We grow "in spurts." " ,The song stresses how responsible we should be toward our relationships. What we say and how we act toward another should reflect the type of commitment the relationship holds. Otherwise, actions and words can lead to misinterpretation, and even be seen as "lies" by another. Further, the line, "In my eyes a revelation," also speaks clearly of life experience. How well a person's YES reflect what is happening in their lives!! Our eyes cannot hide the joy, the pain, the fear, the confusion or the dreams happening in our lives. At times, we try to hide these feelings from others, and some· times even from ourselves. Yet, loving another frees him or her to let the inner light shine. Perhaps this is the deeper message of the song, that even when people feel that they have been cheated or lied to, we are called to rekindle the spark of love's light. It can only be done with patience and gentleness, belief in ourselves and the" God who gives healing even in the experience of brokeness.
Bishop Stang The music, art lllnd drama departments of Bishop Stang High School, North Dartmouth, will combine to produce an arts festival at 7 tonight. Choral presentations, dramatic excerpts and exhibits of paintings, drawings and other art forms will be featured.

Somerset Girls Set State Record Outstanding is the word for the showing of Somerset High School girls in Division Two State Relays in Falmouth. Coach Sheila Fitzgerald's Raiderettes, who took second place to Falmouth, set a new state record in the distance medley. Linda Rowe, Marilyn Fernandes and Michelle Lussier covered the distance in 13 minutes 26.6 seconds. Somerset also placed first in high jump with an accumulative height of 14 feet 8 inches by Claire and Michelle Lussier and Betty Salmon. In tennis, Coach Ted Pettine's Connolly netmen were still un· defeated (12-0) as of last Wednesday, and Ted has high hopes that his Cougars will repeat as Class :a state champions. It will be recalled that Connolly posted
a 26-1 record in annexing the state crown in 1977. Connolly's top three players were undefeated as of last Wednesday, at which time No. 1 player Dave Bedard was 9-0, No. 2 Dave Kalif 8-0, and No. 3 Joe McGuill 9-0. The Cougar netmen will participate in the Eastern Mass. singles and .doubles tournament at the New Seabury Country Club in Mashpee Saturday and Sunday. Players who qualify will advance to the semi-finals in Brockton on May 20 and 21.
