THECATHOLICCHURCHANDHITLER

RelationsbetweenthePapacyI andtheNationalSocialistGovernmentofGermanyhavebeen somewhatobscuretotheordinaryobserverinothercountries.

Inthisarticle,suppliedbythei DepartmentofInformation,a Catholicwritertellsthestoryof thoserelationsandshowstheuncompromisingoppositionofthe PopetoNazidoctrineandphilosophy.

BeforeNationalSocialismattained topower,thePapacywasnotdirectly concerned.TheGermanBishops,actingintheirpropersphereasguardians ofFaithandMorals,condemnedthe doctrineofthenewmovement,notably intheinstructionoftheBavarian BishopstotheirclergyonFebruary11, 1931. ThisattitudeoftheBishopsaccordkw'toWilhelmSolzbacher,wasexpretsslyapprovedbythePope.

Intheirinstructiontheystatedthat theyhadnowishtodiscussthepoliticalandgovernmentalaimsofNationalSocialism,butwereanxious aboutitsculturalaims,whichreject. edtheessentialsoftheChristianFaith, anditsattemptstoreplacethisbya newWeltanschauungviewofthe world;theChristianityofwhichthe NazisspeakisnottheChristianityof Christ.

THECONCORDATAND CONSISTENCY.

ThesuccessoftheNationalSocialistsin1933createdanewsituationbut theattitudeofthePopeandBishops remainedconsistent.

TheConcordatbetweentheChurch andtheStatewasindeedasignof theirconsistency:foritrecognisedthe authorityoftheNationalSocialistGovernmentinitspropersphere,while providingguaranteesfortheunhamperedactivityoftheChurchinspiritualaffairs.

FarfromcompromisingwithNationalSocialism,itrepresentedanattempttobindthenewrulersbytreaty obligations,sothattheintrusionof thepartyinthereligiousspherewould herenderedmoredifficult.

Itdidnotsucceedinthisaim,but sinceneitherPopenorBishopshad beenunderanyillusionsaboutthe dangeroustendenciesinNationalSocialism,theywerenotunpreparedfor thestrugglewhichfollowed.

Duringthetroubledyearssince1933. thePapalpolicyhasremainedconstant. Aperfectlycorrectattitudetowards thegovernmenthasbeenmaintained, becauseinspiteofNazifaithfulness thereisnoessentialincompatibilitybetweentheexistenceofatotalitarian GovernmentandthecontinuedmissionoftheChurch.

Buteachparticularinterferencewith theChurch'smission,everybreachof theConcordat,hasmetwithresistance andprotest.AndNationalSocialist doctrinehasbeencondemnedinthe mostuncompromisingfashion.

ForthePapacy,asfortheCatholic Church,falsedoctrine,theadvocacy ofawayoflifecontrarytoChristian teaching,isinfinitelymoredangerous thantheworstpoliticaltyranny.Naturallyshedeplorestheeffectsofsuch tyranny,especiallyinthereligious sphere,butitisnothertasktoremove tyrants,whileitispre-eminentlyher tasktomaintainpurityofdoctrine.

PAPALPROTESTS-

ThefrequentprotestsofthePopes fgainstthepersecutioninGermanyare well-known.

Threetimesin1934,PopePiusXI. spokeofthesacrificesGermanCatholicsweremakingfortheirreligion.In 1935heusedtheword"persecution" forthefirsttimeinreferencetoevents inGermanyandspokeofattemptsto

destroyChristianityandtoleadthe nationbacktobarbarism.Laterinthe yearhespokeofastruggleagainstGod andJesusChrist.

Amongstmanyotherprotests,the Pope,atChristmas1936,insistedon therealityofthepersecutionandrejectedcategoricallyallattemptsto denyitormakeitappearmilderthan itreallywas;therehadrarelybeen suchafierceandpainfulpersecutionor onesotragicinitseffects.

ThePapalutterancesof1938were largelyrepetitionsofearlierstatements.

AlltheseareexamplesofthePope's anxietythatthefaithfulshouldbe allowedtopractisetheirreligionand listentotheteachingoftheChurch. ButthecondemnationofNational Socialistdoctrineandtheassertionsof theChurch'srighttojudgeonfaith andmoralsaremuchstrongerand leavenottheslightestdoubtabout theincompatibilityofCatholicismand NationalSocialism.

NOCOMPROMISE.

TheNationalSocialistfaith,opposed totheChristian,receiveditsmost authenticexpositioninRosenberg's MythusdesswanzigstenJahrhunderts 1TheTwentieth-CenturyMyth).This workwasplacedontheindexofforbiddenbooksonFebruary7,1934. SincetheNazisclaimedthatthiswasa privateworkwhentheywereattemptingtowinoverCatholicsupport,they couldnotregardthisactasdirected againstthegovernment.

Neverthelessthesolemnityofsuch acondemnationontheonehandand theconsistentsupportwhichRosenbergreceivedfromtheNazileaderson theotherclearlyindicatethefundamentaloppositionbetweenthePapacy andtheNationalSocialists.Neither sideispreparedtocompromiseonthe questionofFaith.

Again,theChurchdoesnotteach thatthereisanymagicalpowerorany curativeagencyintherelicitself.FollowingtheexplicitteachingofSacred Scripture,theChurchsaysthatthe relicsofthesaintsareworthyofgreat respect,andthatrelicsareoftenthe occasionofGod'smiracles.Inthe OldTestamentwereadofthevenerationoftheJewsforthebonesofJoseph(ExodusXIII.,19);oftherelics oftheProphetEliseuswhichraiseda deadmantolife(IV.Kings,XIII.,21).

THECHURCHAND FREEMASONRY.

Theanti-Christianandsubversive elementsinherentintheveryprin- ciplesofFreemasonryhavebeen broughttotheirlogicalconclusionsbyContinentalFreemasonry,whichis openlyandmilitantlyanti-Christian, andutterlyimmoral,anarchicaland subversive.,Anglo-AmericanFreemasonryismuchmoresaneandmoderate, butthePopeshaveinsistedthatitis identicalinprinciplewithContinental Freemasonry.

Forthisreason,theChurchforbids CatholicsunderpainofexcommunicationtojoinanyMasonicSociety.

Fromthetimeofitsinceptioninthe XVIIIthCentury,Freemasonryhas beencondemnedbyatleasttendifferentPopesintermssosevereand sweepingintheirtenorastobequite uniqueinthehisto.s,ofChurchlegis- lation.

LeoXIII.declaredthattheaim cfFreemasonrywasthe"utterovert throwofthewholereligiousorderor theworld,whichChristianteachinghas produced,andthesubstitutionofa newstateofthings basedonthe principlesandlawsofpureNatural. ism."

Theoutstandingsuccessesofourschoolsmust,inthefirstinstance, becreditedtothesterlingteachingabilityofthereligiouscongregationsofmenandwomenwhodevotetheirlivestotheimpartingof Christianeducation.Forthoughitisregrettedbysomethatour fineCatholiceducationalsystemistrammelledandconfinedby competitiveexaminationsitmustberememberedontheotherhand, thatwearelargelyboundbytheexigenciesofthetimesandthe utilitarianoutlookofmoderneducation.TheteachersinourCatholicschools,however,arenotblindtothefalsityofnieceintellectual developmentandareconcernedtoneutralisepagantrendsbydevelopinginthechildren,largelythroughreligiousinstruction,habitsofself-controlanddiscipline.Inotherwordstheyareconcernedtodevelop,notonlythebodyandtheintellect,butalsothewill andtheimagination-inbrief,tocultivateallthefacultiesharmoniously,sothattheadolescentleavestheirhandsproperlybalanced initsdevelopmentandsoadequatelypreparedforthebattleoflife.
