PapalPrinciplesApplyAcid TesttoExistingSocialPolicy

ByP.TRAVERS.

SocialJusticeinIndustryisabroadsubject,andoneonwhichwehavemanyauthorities.Someofthemostimportantare thePapalencyclicalsandtheBishops'statements,andapublicationproducedbythe Jesuits,called"SocialSurvey."

Attheoutsetitmustbe observedthattheChurch's teachingonsocialjustice springsfromourbeliefin GodandofmanasthecreationofGod.Thefatherhood ofGodandthebrotherhood ofmanisnotidealism,itis aconcretefactofChristian revelationandfromitflows thegreatdignityofevery humanbeing-thesourceof hisTherightsandduties. Churchholdsbefore usavisionofasocialorder whichisnormaltoman. Thepointstobeconsidered injudgingasocialorder aresetoutintheBishops' statementonSocialisation:-

(a)Aretheinstitutionsof marriageandthefamily strong? 4

(b)Arethematerialgoods equitablydividedbetween thedifferentclasses,grant-edthefunctionswhicheach ofthemperforms?

(c)Isreligionastrong andvitalforce?

(d)Isthehumanperson freeandsecureintheenjoymentofhisinviolable rights?

(e)Thestatementpoints outthatmaterialwealthof thecommunitymustalso betakenintoaccount.

PropertyIsBest

(a)Theinstitutionofthe familyisstrongest.

(b)Privatepropertyis theeconomicguaranteeof personalliberty.

(c)Mentendtolookafter thatbestwhichistheir own.

(d)Menhavetheright tothedisposaloftheir incomes.

Itisapparentfromthese reasonsthattheChurch believesinadistributive systemofpropertyownership.Is representativepropertyownership oftheAustraliancommunity?Propertyhasbothanindividual andasocialcharacter-the righttopropertyhaving beenestablished,wearenot freetouseitatwill.We mustuseitinamanner thatwillbestpromotethe commongood.

WhyNotGothic?

"Whyisftthatsofew sewchurchesaroundPerth arebuiltinGothicstyle;Is ftnotthemostsuitable architectureforchurches sadtheonehallowedbytradition'!"

R.:Ifearthatthepeople whofirstchristenedthis styleofarchitecturebythe name"Gothic"wouldnot agreewithyou.TheGoths, youremember,werebarbarians;hence"Gothic"was acontemptuous,thoughindeedvery inaccurate, termusedbytheItaliansof theRenaissanceperiod,to describethearchitecture, Franco-Normaninorigin, oftheMiddleAges.

IntheMiddleAgesitwas indeedtheCatholicstyle, sinceitwastheexpression ofthenewcivilisationintroducedbytheChurch afterthestrugglewithpaganism,anditremainstodaythesupremeartisticachievementofthatcivilisation.ButGothicwasa styleofthatperiod,rather thananecclesiasticalstyle.

Apartfromthisexternal respectduetothem,they alsodemandinternalor mentalrespect.Itcannot belightlyadmittedthat errorwouldenterintodocumentsofsuchimportance andreligioussignificancefor theChurchofGod.

Hence,torefusetoadmit theteachingoftheEncyclicalletters,thoughnotinitselfasinagainsttheFaith, maywellbesinfulonthe groundsofrashness,selfopinionatedpride,anddisregardforsupremereligiousauthority.

Onhisdeath,however, duringthereignofthe boy-kingEdwardVI,15471553,barrierswereremoved,andbothCalvinismand Lutheranismobtained widespreadinfluence.

Elizabeth'sIntent

Thiswascheckedbythe accessionofQueenMary, 1553-1558,whichbrought withittherestorationof Catholicism.Asaconsequenceofthis,agreatmany oftheclergyandlaitywho hadsympathisedwithProtestantismfledabroadto HollandandFrance,GermanyandSwitzerland.

WhenElizabeth,15581603,succeededtothe throne,theseexilesreturnedtoEngland,morethan everaffectedbyCalvinism andLutheranism,asthe casemightbe.Butthey foundtheQueenunsympathetic.

ShewasintentonrestoringtheChurchofEngland asithadbeenunderEdwardVI;andherretention ofEpiscopalgovernmenttogetherwithmanyofthe oldritesandceremonies provedoffensivetothose whohadreturnedfrom abroad.

Thereturnedrefugees feltthatthereformspropos-

NotPleasantPeople

ButthePuritans,whether theyconformedtothe ChurchofEnglandornot, wereallardentfollowersof Calvin'steachings,other thanthosedealingwithecclesiasticalpolity,which thePresbyteriansaloneaccepted.

AndCalvin'steachings didnotmakethemvery pleasantpeople.E.Dowden,inhisbook,"Puritans andAnglicans,"wrote: "Theircardinalerrorlay inanarrowconceptionof GodastheGodofrightousnessalone,andnotas theGodofjoyandbeauty andintellectuallight."

A.C.Bensonsaidthatthe Puritans"forgotthatthe capacityforbeautyinnatural God''sthingswasafterall workaswell.It escapedthemthat,when theycriedfortheBibleand nothingbuttheBible,all theymeantwastextswhich theythemselvesselected."

Andmostoftheirtexts wereinsupportofagloomy andrepellentreligion,sufferingfromexaggerated reactionsagainsttheabuses edunderElizabethdidnottheythoughttorectify. gofarenough.TothemSidneyDarkhasrecently eventheSecondPrayer BookofEdwardVIseemed sheer'Popery."

Theythereforedeterminedtoexertallpossibleinfluenceto"purify"boththe creedsandpracticesofthe AnglicanChurchasre-establishedbyElizabeth.

Hencethename"Puritans,"giventothisfaction withintheChurchofEngland,afactionwhichaimed atgainingtheascendancy andmouldingAnglicanism accordingtotheirown desires.

Despairingofsuchslow methods,however,others feltthattheonlythingto dowastoabandonthe ChurchofEnglandandset upindependentChurches accordingtoaltogethernew plansandspecifications.

Thusarose"Independency."ThesePuritanIndependentsrejectedallCalvinistic,Lutheran,andElizabethanideasofreforming any"existentChurch." Theydeclaredallprevious Churchesbeyondreformation,andthatthe"Lord's People"shouldwithdraw altogetherandformnew voluntarygroupsboundtogetherbytheirown"Covenant"toserveGod, choosingtheirownofficers, andordainingtheworthiestmembersbytheimpositionoftheirownhands.

"GatheredPeople"

Thewholeideaofthe "Church"asformerlyunderstoodwas,therefore, abrogated.Thelocaland independentcongregation wastobeallthatmattered.
