Emigration

Inthepastfiveyears,accordingtothepreliminary reportoftheCensustaken intheIrishRepublicthis year,thepopulationhas droppedbyover80,000and morethan200,000people emigrated.

Becauseoftheexcessof birthsoverdeaths,thepopulationshouldhavegoneup, andthefigurescameata timeofincreasednational confidencebecauseofrising exports,newindustriesand ageneralsenseofprogress.

Governmentsupporters, preparingforageneralelectionInOctober-thedate willnotbeknownuntilthe dissolutionofparliamentin September-pointoutthat theemigrationrateisnot whatitmightseemfromthe figures;thatwhentheyreturnedtopowerfiveyears ago,emigrationwasrunning attherateof70,000ayear,

andthatmorethanhalfthe emigrantsinthepastfive yearswereatthebeginning ofthegovernmenttermof office,andthatemigration isnowdowntoabout30,000.

Thisisdisputedbythe opposition,whopointout thatthepopulationisnow atitslowestsincetheestablishmentoftheStateabout fortyyearsago.

Emigration,however,has beenatahighrateformore thanahundredyears,and someeconomistsputforward theviewthattheIrishare bynatureamigratory people,whohavehelped buildmanynations,andthat thereshouldheanational planforemigration.

"Apologia"OfEx-CatholicMonk

B.C.P.,GRANVILLE:Inabook,"TheyBecomeAnglicans,"publishedin1959byMowbray andCo.,London,aBelgianBenedictinemonkofMaredsousAbbey,describeshowheleft theRomanCatholicChurchandjoinedtheChurchofEnglandonJune23,1956.

R.:Fouryearsagothedailypapersreportedthecase, andveryfullyforsecularnewspapers.

Q.:Onpage101,thisformerBelgianmonk,Emmanuel ArnauddeMendieta,writes:"Isayingoodconscience thatIlefttheRomanChurchforreasonsofconviction andnot,asmyslandererscouldsayofme,inorderto marry."

R.:Youwillnoticethatthereheanticipateswhat "could"besaid.Hedoesnotsuggestthatitwassaid. Nordoesheclaimthathewasinfactthe.victimofany campaignofslanderagainsthim.InnoCatholicpapers whichmentionedhisdefectionfromtheChurchwere thereanyattacksonhimselfpersonally.

TheattitudeofCatholicswassimplythattheChurch haseverbeenengagedinspiritualcombat-thatisher verymisson-andinallwarfarecasualtiesarelikelyto occur.Beyondabriefnotice,"oneofouraircraftfailed toreturn,"theotherscarryonwiththeirduties.Mr. deMendietacannotsaythatCatholicsadoptedany otherattitudethanthattowardshimself.

MONASTICVOWSIGNORED

Q.:Heexplains:"FortwoorthreeyearsbeforeIjoined theChurchofEngland,Ihadbeenconvincedthatin theeyesofGodIwasnolongerboundbymonastic vowsand,further,thatmarriagewasquiteconsistent withtheexerciseoftheChristianpriesthood."

R.:AdifficultyhereisthattheAnglicanChurch, whichhasitsownBenedictinemonksmakingthesame monasticvowsasCatholicmonks,saysinits"Directory oftheReligiousLife,"publishedwiththeauthorityof theArchbishops,ofCanterburyandYork,thatonewho

leaveshisOrderwithoutadispensationfromhisvows andinviolationofthemistobetreatedasareligious apostate,andeveryeffortmustbemadetobringhim toabetterframeofmind!

Q.:"Consequently,"Mr.deMendietasays,"afterjoiningtheEnglishChurch,ImarriedsomeonewhomI hadstartedtohopeonedaywouldmarryme."

R.:Thedailypressreportatthetimeread:"The Frenchgirlwithwhomhehadfalleninlovecamewith himandtheyweremarriedinLondoninaRegistry Office."

Ofcourse,thatdoesnotexcludehishavinggone throughasecondmarriageceremonyaccordingto AnglicanritesafterjoiningtheChurchofEngland;but merelytosaythatmuch,withnoreferencetothe previousRegistryOfficemarriagecanscarcelybecalled anadequateaccountofthecase.

Afurtheromissionisanymentionofwhetherthegirl whowentwithhimfromFranceautomaticallyexperiencedthesamechangeofreligiousconvictionongetting toEnglandashehimself.Onecannothelpfeelingthat thewholethingwouldbebetterexplainedinmerely humantermsratherthaninreligioustern's.

HISTORICANGLICAN"MEDIEVALISM!"

Q.:Mr.deMendietasays:"Historically,doctrinally,in moralteachingandinliturgytheChurchofEngland continuesthelifeoftheChurchoftheMiddleAges, andistheone,fullyCatholicChurchofthisland."

R.:Thereissomethingwrong Church ofEnglanditselfinsiststhatindoctrine,moralteaching andliturgy,itdoesnotcontinuethelifeoftheChurch oftheMiddleAges.

ItsthesisisthattheChurchbecamehopelesslycorruptintheMiddleAges;andthattheChurchofEngland,asa"reformed"Church,hadtobypasstheMiddle Ageswithalltheiraccretions,andgetbacktothepurer doctrine,moralteachingandliturgyoftheprimitive centuries.

Perhaps,beingaBelgian,Mr.deMendietasimply doesnotunderstandwhattheChurchofEnglandstands foratall!Again,hesaysthatChurchistheCatholic Church"inthiscountry,"meaning,ofcourse,England. ThatcanonlymeanthattheChurchtowhichheformerlybelongedistheCatholicChurchinBelgium.If itisn't,thenthere'snoCatholicChurchinBelgium. ItfollowsthathewasjustasmuchaCatholicin BelgiumashenowclaimstobeinEngland,despitehis havinghadtoabandonthedoctrines,moralteachings andliturgyofhispreviousreligion.Itdoesn'tmake sense,anditwouldhavebeenbetternottoattempta rationalexplanationofanon-rationaldecision.

ValueOfA"CommonBible" "NEWCOMER,"BONDI:

Withallthese newtranslationsoftheBible,there hasbeenmuchtalkofa"Common Bible,"acceptabletoCatholicsand Protestantsalike,butcannotseeof whatusethatwouldbe.

R.:Thosewhoadvocateitarguethatitwouldmake mucheasierdiscussionsoftheologiansofdifferent Churcheswhoareinterestedinproblemsofunity. Anagreedtranslationwouldsavealotoftimein arguingaboutdifferentrenderingsoftheHebrew andGreektexts.

UNBELIEVERSNOTINTERESTED

Q.:Tomymind,thefundamentalideastaughtin Scripturewouldbeasunacceptableaseverto themodernworld,nomatterinwhatlanguage theywereexpressed.AmIwronginthat?

R.:Notifyouarethinkingofsecularistsand materialists,whohaveabandonedtheChristian faithaltogether.Theadvantagesareclaimedonly forinter-faithdiscussionsbetweenthosewhostill professbeliefinChristandclaimtoChristians. PeoplewhoradicallyrejectthereligionoftheBible withallitssupernaturalteachingsoftheBible aboutGod,theIncarnationandtheRedemption. andofafuturedestinybeyondthismaterialworld, willnot,asyouyourselfsay,beimpressedbyits doctrines,howeverunanimousbothCatholicsand Protestantsmaybeinputtingbeforetheman agreedmodernversion.

BookOfRevelation

SEEKER,DRUMMOYNE:IsnottheBookof RevelationasmuchtheinspiredWordof GodasanyotherpartoftheBible?

R.:Itis. InCatholic Bibles,ofcourse,theBook ofRevelationisknownas theApocalypse,anAnglicanisedGreekwordmeaningtounveiloruncover.

Whilethisbook,however, isasmuchapartoftheinspiredWordofGodasany other,itismoredifficultto understandthanotherbooks becauseofitsmysticalcharacter.

St.John,writinginhis owndangeroustimesofpersecutionbypaganemperors, wantedtostrengthenChristiansbythepromiseofthe finalvictoryofChristover theenemiesoftheChurch.

Hewroteinacrypticway, almostacodemessagefor Christians,whichpagan. Rom"bnofficialswouldnot understandifthebookfell intotheirhands.

RomewascalledBabylon, andthepaganEmperorsthe "beast"or"thescarlet woman,"andsoon.

Manymodernsects,such astheSeventhDayAdventistsandtheWitnessesof Jehovah,relyheavilyona literalinterpretationofRevelation,butthisisquite opposedtothemethodthe wholeboOkdemandsifone istoarriveatarightunderstandingofit.

THE"MILLENIUM"IDEA

Q.:Doesnotthebookspeak ofagreatfinalbattle, Armageddon,whenChrist willdestroyHisenemies andestablishHisMillenniumorthousandyears' reignonearth?

R.:Notintheliteralsense ofthosewords.Theterm "Armageddon"isfromthe HebrewHar-Magedonor MountMegiddo,whichfor theJewswasasymbolof victorieswonthereinthe past. InRevelationitmeansno morethanthattheforces ofgoodunderthecontrolof Christwillfinallytriumph overtheinfluencesofevil. theword"Millennium"does notoccurinScripture,but

Rev.20:2doesspeakof Satanbeingboundfora "thousandyears."Thenumber"1000"issymbolical onlyofanindefinitelylong period. CertainitisthatChrist willnotcomeagaininorder tosetupatemporalmillennialkingdominthisworld. HolyScriptureshowsHis SecondComingascoinciding withtheLastJudgment, leavingnoroomforanyintervening"millennium"on earth.

Also,thehistoryofthe Churchisdepictedasoneof trialandsufferingtillthe endoftime,withnopleasantintervaloffreedom fromsuchdifficultiesfora thousandyears.Toteacha literal"millenium"isagainst theBibleasawholeand againsttheteachingofthe Churchthroughalltheages.

"BINDINGOFSATAN"

Q.:IftheSecondComingIs nottousherinagolden ageonearth,howisSatan boundforathousand years?

R.:Christ'sreligionitself hasthepowertocripplethe workofSatanbytriumph, ingoveridolatryandpaganism,bytheperseveringinfluenceofHisChurch throughthecenturies,and bytheestablishingofHis reignspirituallywithinthe soulsofallwhobelievein Him,loveHimandenthrone Himintheirlivesas Saviour,LordandKing.

ThuswithintheChurch asthevisiblekingdomof GodonearthChristreignsakingdomtheperfectionof whichwillbecompleted onlyinheaven.Theonly "millennium,"therefore,is theentirecourseofthe Church'shistoryasthekingdomofGodonearth;andto becomeaCatholicistobe partofithereandnow.

Unlikeallothersaints, withthesoleexceptionof St.JohntheBaptist,Our BlessedLadywasbornfull ofgrace.Notonlyofcourse wasshebornfullofgrace, but,byreasonofherImmaculateConception,she wasconceivedwithoutstain oforiginalsin.Itisforthis reasonthattheChurchcelebratesherbirthdaywitha feastday.Inthecaseofthe othersaintsitisthedayof theirdeaths,whenthey werebornintoheaven,asit were,thatwecelebratetheir feastdays.

ThebirthplaceofOur Ladyisunknewn.Ancient traditionfavoursNazareth astheplaceofherbirth,and thiswasfavouredinthe WesternChurch,buta paralleltraditionnamed Jerusalemandespeciallythe areaofthePoolofBethsaida.There,acryptunder theCrusaders'ChurchofSt. Anneisnowveneratedas thespotwheretheMother ofGodwasherselfborn.
