Where ignorance is never bliss
In remote areas of Bihar, India, half the children die before they reach five. Sickness, hunger, abject poverty all take a share of responsibility. But the real killer is ignorance. Ignorance of basic hygiene. Ignorance of proper health care. Ignorance of balanced diet. Ignorance of efficient farmi%. Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance! And, the tragedy is, these are hardworking and industrious people. Where village education programmes have been established, the results have been little short of spectacular. To set up one of these village schools costs about $500. But they are all too few. Australian Jesuits there simply have not got the money. Until they do, half the children will continue to die before they reach five. Any help you can give will be gratefully acknowledged by: National Director, Father G.

HAVE YOU:I-SAY
Record In the temporary absence of the official spokesman of the archdiocese, Dean P.G.J. O 'Reilly, the editor of The Record was approached last week by The Daily News for comments on a case of an alleged refusal of m arriage to a purportedly impotent man. It is a hazard to offer comments that become buried in an avalanche of heated invective, this time from various handicapped quarters, and about a situation on which it is now clear the whole truth was not being told. Until quite recently impotency was a marriage impediment in state law. It is not surprising that it should be so in Church law. It is not a subject often referred to principally because the causes and cures for impotency are complex both physically and psychologically in both men and women. If Church marriage laws and regulations exist, it is because the Church cares. It is a f undamental and proper expectation of any man or woman entering marriage that they will be entitled to normal sexual unions and the Church supports this contention because it cares about the happiness of the partners. The question of potency is not likely to arise in marriage preparation talks because the situation is in favour of the parties marrying until positive evidence to the contrary e ventuates. It is probable that only after a lengthy period of marriage could it be positively a sserted that the impotency of either the man or the woman is permanent, irreversible and i rremediable. Only then, on the petition of a partner, would a process of annulment be instituted. It follows therefore, by induction, that if because of serious disability it is possible a man or woman might show signs of sexual impotency that a priest is entitled to draw the attention of the couple tothe fact, to ask them to take advice and to explain the Church's teaching and its reason. The Church is not in the business of refusing marriages. The priest acts as the local representative of the Catholic community to ensure that a couple know, understand and are able to discharge the responsibilities of marriage. Hopefully, it is the couple themselves who will appreciate that obstacles, whether physical or emotional, stand in the path of their happiness. Alternatively, they decide that the care of the Church has no meaning for them and they go their own way. The Church does not subscribe to the midday television serial formula that marriage is a right for any two persons simply because they say so, still less because they declare themselves to be in love, whatever that means. There are far more important issues to assess than hypothetical impotency or related sexual matters. Instability, immaturity, ignorance and plain unpreparedness are coming up constantly in cases before church tribunals and indicate in no uncertain terms that some people should not have entered marriage at the time they did. To forestall the frustration, bitterness and hatred that quickly replaces what should have been love, the Church is entitled to insist on counselling or other professional advice that will ensure that the couple are ready to accept their full spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities. In the present case the bishop has not necessarily granted any dispensation from the law but followed the prudent advice of the medical profession that impotency is far from established in this case and that therefore the man enjoys the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. As a post script it could be argued that the priest over -reacted by asking for some assurance that the man was not handicapped sexually. He would have been on far safer grounds refusing to proceed with the marriage because of the man's patent immaturity. Any man who within hours of having spoken to a priest — and no one else — was prepared to humiliate his future wife by trotting her so-called sexual disinterest through the press of the world has got a lot to learn about human love and sensitivity, about the delicate bond that a husband and wife have to establish.
POLES' MOVE DIFFERENT from J. F. Harding, Diane/la
Sir, Paul Donnelly wrongly perceives (The Record, January 28) E similarity between Australian industrial action, the British national strike of 1926 and the gallant attempt by the working people of Poland for social justice and freedom from the Soviet yoke.
Christmas contrasts apparent from John Veszely, Nollamara
Sir, Mr Donnelly (The Record January 28) was quite incorrect in saying that without martial law Christmas would have been terrible. It was terrible. The 1980 Christmas in Poland was the happiest for over 40 years. The one which was celebrated last year was the worst since 1939. The reason for it was that tens of thousands were interned and their loved ones did not even know if they were alive. This was the result of Jaruzelski's martial law. Mr Donnelly's contention that Moscow is more concerned about coal than the ideology of the Polish nation I doubt. If the Soviets would not put ideology before anything, Stalin would not have found it a "must" to have the Polish officers murdered in the woods of Katyn. Historians tell us that the reason for that, the greatest mass murder of POW's, was that the Kremlin wanted to eliminate any nationalist-minded power base from Poland, so that the Kremlin could impose their will without anyone resisting after the war. As for saying that the Jaruzelski clamp-down was preferable to industrial disruption, Archbishop Glemp, the primate of Poland, compared the plight caused by martial law of his beloved people to the agony of Christ. Pope John Paul II had nothing but condemnation for Jaruzelsi's martial law.

SCHOOLS DO HAVE A MORAL EFFECT from Mary L. Urquhart, Dalkeith
Sir, Paul Donnelly's contention (The Record, January 14) that the minority Catholic school system does not have much effect on the moral and ethical outcome of our total Australian education is very subjective and can not be validated. H owever, the likely ments or recent Church potential of a minority history, my son at a t owards the majority Catholic school wrote the would be influenced by its following when he was quality. eight and eleven years As to his second claim respectively: that a 10-year-old knew "Thank you God for all the neither the patron saint of beautiful things that light Ireland, the Old Testa- up the world and help ment, Ten Command- blind people feel beautiful

GERMANS AID CAUSE BONN, West Germany —West German Catholics contributed nearly $450 million to n ational Catholic assistance agencies during 1981. More than half of the total was from voluntary contributions, while the rest came from the church tax imposed by the West German government on citizens with religious affiliation and distributed proportionately to the churches. The voluntary contributions totalled 564 million marks (about $250 million). This was nearly $20 million more than the previous year.

"Are you a disciple?"

Master-disciplE relationship The words 'master' and 'disciple' are n reflected in the words of today which are used replace them: 'Teacher' and 'student'. In the time of Christ the words reflected the deeper relationship c Hebrew father and his , son. In the time of Jesus the relations' between the master and the disciple was deeper and even mc important than the relationship of the Hebrew to his father.

Even though He was a failure with the crowd, Jesus Christ is the greaThat is by no means enough to test success in all of human history: explain ourselves as true disciples. so successful, that He divided his Jesus felt this was a good time to cross in half; the greatest success, ask of them something difficult for because before His death, He prOHimself when he said: "I will give duced 12 disciples. you my flesh to eat and blood to Jesus Christ multiplied Himself 12 drink" but the crowd said these are times because that is exactly what a hard words and who can believe them.
The crowd disappeared but then He turned to a group of disciples and asked: "Will you also abandon me?' Peter spoke up: "Lord", (meaning. I am not free to leave you) "To whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life."
