VATICAN CITY (NC) — With a firm "yes" to the indissolubility of marriage and to present church teaching on artificial birth control, Pope John Paul II closed the 1980 world Synod of Bishops last Saturday October 25. Speaking in Latin to synod participants in the Sistine Chapel, the Pope said that the only divorced and remarried Catholics who may receive the eucharist were those who refrained from sexual relations with their second spouse. He had strong praise for the synod's affirmation of "the validity and clear truth of the prophetic message — filled with profound meaning and pertaining to today's conditions — contained in the encyclical 'Humanae Vitae (of Human Life).'" Church teachings on contraception and remarriage after divorce had been major topics of discussion during the synod, which opened on September 26 on "the role of the Christian family in the world of today."

Dispensation from elibacy "not t" VATICAN CITY: In new norms for laicisation, bishops and religious superiors have been warned that dispensation from celibacy is not to be considered a right belonging to all priests. New norms issued last week remove a number of restrictions that existed under regulations issued on the matter in 1971 and 1972 but still take a strict jine on who may apply for a dispensation from priestly celibacy. The Pope will still make the final decision on the evidence submitted by the congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith which has stated that it will accept two categories of cases: • "Priests who have left the priestly life for a long period of time and who hope to remedy a state of affairs which they are not able to quit," and • "Those who should not have r eceived priestly ordination because the necessary aspect of freedom or responsibility was lacking or because the competent superiors were not able, within an appropriate time, to judge in a prudent and sufficiently fitting way whether the candidate really was suited for continuously leading a life of celibacy dedicated to God." • Saying that dispensation is not a right belonging indiscriminately to all priests, the Vatican letter points out what it calls the "true right": "A true right is that one which a priest, through his commitment, has conferred upon

Ecumenical advances
MARCH TOWARD NITY
•. When St Joachim'sHigh School, in VictoriaPark, held a United Nations day last Friday, a big section of the world was represented. The school has more than 20 different nationalities among its students. Students were dressedin almost 40 different national costumes and 16 rooms were set up to house national displays. Plans to give prizes to the best display were abandoned because of the excellence of the individual exhibitions. A t the opening ceremony guests were greeted by 20 girls who said "hello" in every language they knew. A fter a corroboree which featured emu dancing and didgeridoo playing, guests and students were treatedto an ethnic lunch. The day finished with a Mass of which a highlight was the Recessional Hymn sung in Italian by c tudents.

V ATICAN CITY (NC) — Significant signs of ecumenical advances were seen in the past three years, Dutch Cardinal Jan WilIebrands, president of the Vatican's Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity, told the 1980 World Synod of Bishops.
Two papal deaths and elections in 1978 "showed clearly the extent to which the (Second) Vatican Council and the pontificates ofJohn XXIII and Paul VI had brought about a radical change in the relations between the rest of Christianity and the Catholic Church", said Cardinal Willebrands. The period of papal transitions was marked by impressive numbers of nonCatholic delegations actively sharing in the Catholic events in Rome.

Paul II to the Pan-Orthodox patriarchate in Turkey and the beginning of the international Catholic-Orthodox theological dialogue, the cardinal said. He also noted progress in the following areas: • Catholic-Coptic relations: "We hope to publish very shortly an important document on the principles that should govern our quest for unity." • Catholic relations with other Westemn churches and communions: Dialogues or conversations are under way with the Anglican Communion, the World Methodist Council, the Lutheran World Federation, the World Alliance of Reformed Churches and the Pentecostal Churches. Contacts with Baptists could lead to the beginning of a similar dialogue.

•The Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission "is getting ready to present its final report in the autumn of 1981...The time is now coming when the authorities on both sides must adopt a definite position regarding the results of this dialogue and draw its consequences for pursuing ourjourney toward unity. It is perhaps the first time in its history that the church has found itself faced with texts of this kind." Cardinal Willebrands stressed a continuing need for local ecumenism and interchurch co-operation.

THE SYNOD OF BISHOPS, WHICH MET IN VATICAN
The real meaning of marriage
4,
With the noise and confusion of recent and current elections in many parts of the world filling the air theSynod of Bishops which finished lastweek has picked a bad timeto be heard with anything like balanced appreciation. Too many armchair critics will see it like an exercise in politics where a handful of votes, or a snap sampling of polls, can tip the course of the Church in one direction or another. It is no surprise that Pope John Paul II has delivered a straight line on divorce, contraception and other issues in his closing address to the Synod. It was never expected that he would stand up and saythat the Church has been gravely astray in the major stands it has taken on such public issues. On the other hand, he heard a succession of bishops not mince their words on the serious issues that face the Church in its pastoral practice. The Pope has a lot of paper on his desk to read and absorb before he and his advisers issue a definitive synod statement. It is a pity that Australian Catholics were not encouraged to be more specifically analytical of issues like divorce and c ontraception that were raised so forcefully by other countries' delegations. For example, not one synod bishop expressed dissent from the contraceptive teaching enunciated by Pope Paul VI in Humanae Vitae. But a chorus of pained protest came from all over the world indicating that the teaching is being ignored, misunderstood, applied badly in pastoral practice, or worsestill, is not even a problem in the eyes • of many isolated c onservatives. In other words, the public relations of the CatholicChurch is in bad shape and it is time for the natural family planning , m ovement to go on the offensive and tell the world whatl pharmaceutical science has almost conspired to conceal. With the contraceptive pill so discredited medically and the IUD causing not only abortion but irreparable internal damage to women, it behoves some Catholic schools to be holding up these practices as some sort of consumer shelf from which the student will take his choice. If the teachers are not aware of the total dimension of Humanae Vitae, and not merely its contraceptive application, then they will have to be taught. If teachers don't want to promote the Catholic philosophy then it is time to look more closely at what Catholic education is about. There is no doubt that many Catholics see themselves at v ariance with the Church on this matter. If this is genuinely so then their problem goes deeper than contraception and requires more than a shrug that it is up to each individual to make up his or her mind. O n divorce and re-marriage the Catholic Church is in no better shape as too many of its families are seen to be disintegrating under the pressures of the day. They need compassion and sympathy and Pope John Paul's words notwithstanding, there is still a lot of pastoral work to be done on the matter of their receiving communion or not. But the deeper question is why these marriages are breaking up. Does it mean that all the energy put into Catholic upbringing is of no avail when the crunch comes? Why are not the counselling services of the Church being used more to stem the breakdown of these marriages? Or is t here now an unconscious belief among Catholics that divorce is some sort of semi-Christian alternative if things do not work out? The gospel suggests otherwise but clearly there is need f or renewed intelligent, vigorous but sensitive preaching of what Jesus' call to lifelong fidelity is all about. There is no placefordespair. The fact that that focus of the Church has come onto family life, the fact that there are v igorous family formation programmes operating in parishes everywhere can only mean that the renewal called for by the Second Vatican Council is under way. It is a renewal that calls for hard work and dedication and not just apathy and complacency about the real meaning of Christian marriage as taught over the ages by the Catholic Church. 4111.1reil.* • 26 John Street, Perth WA 6000 • Correspondence • The Editor, The Record, PO Box 50 • Aberdeen Street, Perth, 6000 Advertising • Vanguard Service Telephone 328 1388 • registered for posting as a newspaper Category "A" (11) • Produced in WA Printed and published weekly by Edward van Heemst, • 26 John Street, Perth • Established 1874

PROPOSALS FOR THE POPE
Rights charter, a call for sensitivit V ATICAN CITY (NC) — The final propositions of the 1980 W orld Synod of Bishops make strong recommendations to Pope John Paul II for a s ensitive pastoral approach to such burning issues as artificial contraception and the status of divorced and remarried Catholics.
The Bishops carefully balanced the call for sensitivity with doctrinal firmness. The 32 propositions which have not been published conclude with a 16-point charter of human rights, which the bishops asked the Holy See to propose to the United Nations, and a call for each of the World's bishops' conferences to draw up a pas-
toral directory for families. T he propositions which have been handed to the Pope ask that he use the document as a basis for a papal letter. All synods to date have been followed by major papal documents. • On this page is a summary of what the synod concluded on some of the key issues discussed: artificial contraception divorce and remarriage and equality of women.

Today People A weekly feature
Why ban women from altar service? Why keep women and girls away from service at the altar? asked Bishop Lebel of Quebec, Canada, in a long look at the place of women in the Church. The following is Bishop Level's written submission: The state of submission and oppression to which women are subjected in the world is a sinful situation, the result of original sin. It is a situation of sin, therefore something to correct. It is out of fidelity to the word of God that the church ought to recognise as positive the modern feminist movement. It is a question as a whole, of progress within civilization and it is one more step in the coming of the kingdom. If there is a place where calls for the liberation of women ought to be heard, it is in the church of Jesus Christ, enlightened by the word of God. The church should not be in the tow of civilization and cultures nor should it excuse delays in listening to these calls by saying that society does not do any better. The church ought to have a message and prophetic action which promote all sorts of liberation. The church ought to denounce and correct all that, in laws, customs and cultural expressions, brings about
forms of discrimination or of subjection. On the promotion of women the church is already prophetic but its message ought to become clearer and not be obscured by reticence. The church is filled with the presence and the influence of the mother of God; but we are far from having understood all the consequences of Marian dogma for ecclesiology and the practice of the church concerning all that femininity can mean and contribute to a full humanization of the presence of God and of his salvation. But the desire for what is lacking in this domain should not prevent us from seeing what exists. There is in our time a very positive sign, one that is full of promise for our hope. The woman finds in Christian marriage and in the Christian family the full recognition of her dignity and her equality with her male partner. Since that already exists in the "domestic church", how can we not hope to see the consequences of it one day on the level of the whole church? However, the comparison of the domestic church and the whole church is weak andIleave it to you to conclude which side is lagging behind. If families have influence in the life of the church, women will have it, for they
are at least half of families. That is easy to grasp. But it is not necessary to limit the role of women in the church to the influence they are able to have through the family. The woman is more than a wife, a mother, even if these two roles evoke an immense human and supernatural reality. Women want to discern in the church a serious desire that they take up their responsibilities. Certain negative attitudes on points that are not of great importance are nonetheless heavy in significance. Why, for example, keep women and girls away from the altar? I admit that it is not by carrying the cruets that women ar e going to arrive at their full religious development,but, for them, it is serious that even that is refused them. Such a prohibition has all the appearances of a sexist attitude; it has an anti-family aspect for it is the couple or the whole family that presents itself for the service of the altar, as one sees in a practice spreading in our contry and, undoubtedly, elsewhere. Let us be spared, therefore, the embarrassment of having to convince our faithful people of the pertinence and the intelligence of such regulations.

DVENTURE IN OCCUPIED SINGAP
The Pageant of light
A GLITTERING( PENING • A Catholic priest with a parish consisting of 15,000 gypsies who wander the roads of Britain is the subject of the BBC Everyman documentary The Chosen Road on Two Thursday at lOpm. Twelve years ago Father Daly had his fortune read by a gypsy girl. Intrigued he visited her family in their caravans and found in their mobile community a very real spiritual commitment to the Catholic faith of their ancestors. In response to a demand from the travelling people as they prefer to call themselves, Father Daly established his Mission for the Pastoral Care for the Travelling People. Based in a small terraced house in Oxford, he travels nearly 50,000 kilometres each year to carry out his ministry.

Jack Smethurst stars in the premiere of the Australian comedy series Love Thy Neighbour in Australia tonight (November 2) on Seven at 8pm. Smethurst continues his role of the English bigot who has now emigrated to Australia and lives in the West Sydney suburb of Blacktown. Few British immigrants arrive with such panache as that of the bigoted Mr Booth. Eddie is delayed on his arrival in the premiere episode, Out of the Frying Pan, and misses the arranged rendezvous with his new boss. Deciding to have a few beers, he meets a man who soon becomes antagonistic about Eddie's attitude towards foreigners and "nig-nogs". Having then managed to find his new work address, he realises that in fact the man he previously annoyed at the airport is his new foreman-to-be. Further complications arise when he discovers that he is to board with the shapely secretary of the boss, and that his new next-door neighbour is a beerswilling ocker.
The new action series The Dukh of Hazzard, starting on Niri 11 1 4 / November 7 and screened ead Friday at 7.35pm, offers a mode Robb interpretation of the old Hood story.

The celebration of YCW MICHAEL MINCHAM Week in Bunbury corn(Bunbury)
A drive past the old East Perth cemetary on Plain Street reveals a precious little church standing amidst ageing tombstones and Australian gum trees.
This scene is an admirable reminder to us that the Church is made up not just of the living saints here on earth that gather weekly for worship but also, of the dead, those in heaven and those on their way to heaven. November is the month to remember the saints that have gone before us. The first day is the feast of All Saints who have reached their eternal destiny, having lived their life on earth but are not numbered among the recognised saints on the Church's liturgical calendar. On the second day of November we pray for those people who are still on their way to heaven. We believe there is a time of purification before a person may enter heaven. These souls can do nothing for themselves but depend on us, the Church on earth to intercede on their behalf. It is a day when we -remember people who no longer have living relatives to pray for them. It is a day when the Church throughout the whole world prays for the dead.

AND MARRIAGE
I wish to conclude the analysis of the words spoken by Christ in the Sermon on the Mount on "adultery" and "lust", and in particular of the last element of his enunciation, in which "lust of the eyes" is defined specifically as "adultery committed by the heart." The words are usually understood as desire for another's wife (in the spirit of the ninth commandment) but this interpretation can and must be widened in the light of the total context. A moral evaluation of lust ("looking lustfully") which Christ calls "adultery committed in the heart," depends above all on the personal dignity of man and woman. This holds true both for those who are not married and — perhaps even more — for those who are husband and wife. The words in Matthew 5:27-28: "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery,' but Isay to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart," show a need to deepen the ethica meaning they contain.

Can the Pope really be right?
Pope John Paul It is probably one of the most inspirational Popes of all times. No Pope has travelled as widely, and no man has a face which radiates such goodness. But his dogmatic view on sexual morality is causing worldwide debate. Today's Daily News takes a penetrating look at the Pope and his controversial utterance on love and sex.
He has invented a new morality, based apparently upon a peculiar interpretation he places
upon words of Jesus quoted in Matthew (and only in Matthew).
