Ashorttimeago,PopePiusXIIs.ummedupthe historyofthosefortyyearswhenhesaid:"The CatholicChurchfordecadesandespeciallyforthe pasttenyearsisundergoingoneofthemostserious, andtakingeverythingintoconsideration,oneofthe mostdangerouspersecutionsshehaseverknown."

WHYPERSECUTION?

ThosewhothinkthatCommunismisonlyapolitical orsocialmovementcannotunderstandthispersecution.WhyshouldCommunists,whentheyaresecurely inpower,trytoexterminatetheChurch?Unfortunately,Communismisnotjustapoliticalorsocial movement;itisalsoananti-religiousdoctrine.Lenin, architectoftheRussianrevolution,andarecognised authorityonthemeaningofCommunism,statedthis bluntlyagainandagain.Hesaid,forinstance"ThephilosophicalbasisofMarxismisdialectical materialismMaterialismthatisabsolutelyatheistic andresolutelyopposedtoallreligion."Tosuppose thereforethattherecanbepeacefulco-existence betweenCommunismandreligionissheerwishful thinking.Whentheytrytodestroyreligion,Communistsareonlyactinginaccordancewith*their beliefs.Sincetheyregardanythingthatpromotes Communismasmoral,theyhavenoqualmsabout eventhemostbrutalpersecution.Theonlyproblem foithemis:what,inthecircumstances,isthebest meansofeliminatingreligioninacountry?

VARIETYINTACTICS

Ascountriesandcircumstancesvary,themeans judgedbestwillalsovary.Murderandimprison- ment,thetraditionalformsofpersecution,havebeen usedinallcountriestakenoverbytheCommunists, andarestillbeingused.Thousandsoftheclergy andlaityhavesufferedinthisway.Theestimated figureforeachcountryisgivenbyMr.Gaiter.Some ofthemoreflagrantexampleswillbealreadyfamiliar toreadersoftheCatholicpress.Lesswellknownis thestoryofAlbania,wherethemajorityoftheclergy hasbeenkilledorimprisoned,andthatofCzechoslovakiawherein1950-1,twothousandmembersof religiousordersofmenwereinternedandmostnuns wereexpelledfromtheirconvents.Ineverycountry, too,churcheshavebeencloseddownandreligious worshiprestricted.

Suchbrutalmethods,however,havetheirdisadvantages.ItisnoteasyforCommuniststoconvince

religiouspersecution.Also,whereCatholicpopulationsarelarge,itisimpossibletokillorimprison everybody.Again,whatremainsoftheChurchis drivenundergroundandoutofCommunistcontrol. Fromtheirfortyyearsofexperience,Communists hoverealisedthattheirmethodsmustbemorecunning,moreflexible,thatthedestructionofreligion willtakealongertimethananticipated.Attimes, even,theymustbepreparedtomakeconcessions,to relaxthepressure.Afinetimeforsuchagestureis whenadelegationisvisitingthecountrysothatthe delegationcanreportonitsreturnthattheRedshave seentheerroroftheirwaysandareabandoningthe persecutionofreligion.

Itwouldappearthatthesatelliteisnottheonly "achievement"ofSovietScience.AccordingtoMr. Gaiter,"underlyingthediversityoftacticsthereis alwaysdiscernibleaconstantpatternofpersecution, akindofover-allplanning,withbutdifferenceof degreeinitspracticalapplication.Thereisreason tobelievethattheCommunistGovernmentshaveat theirdisposalaresearchorganisationandpsychologicallaboratoriestoaidthemintheiranti-religiousor ratheranti-Catholicstrategy."

THENEWPLAN

Thenewpatternofpersecutioncanbesummedup, onthebasisofMr.Gaiter'smaterial,inthefivefollowingprinciples:

1.-"NoMartyrs."

ThereisoneChristiansayingthattheCommunists havetakentoheart-"thebloodofmartyrsisthe seedof think,Christians."Previouspersecutorsfailed,they becausetheirvictimswereregardedasmartyrs fortheirfaithandbecameheroesinthepublicmind. Martyrsmustnolongerappeartobesuch:thecharges trumpedupagainstthemmustbepoliticalandtheir reputationsmustbeblackenedasfaraspossible. Henceoneoftheearliestandalsomostpermanent featuresoftheCommunistcampaignisastreamof propagandapouringthroughallthechannelsofcommunication.Thatthecampaignconsistsmainlyof lies,andthatitdoesnotdeceiveeverybody,doesnot worrytheCommunists,fortheyareconfidentthat"A lierepeatedtwiceisstillalie:repeated100,000times, itbecomesforthegreaternumberatruth."

toreducetheChurchtosilence.TheCatholicpress whichmighthavecontinuedtoanswerattacks,is suppressed,usuallybecauseof"papershortage," althoughthereisalwaysabundantpaperforCommunistpurposes.Catholicschoolsaretakenoverby theGovernment,Catholicteachersreplacedwith atheistones,andCommunismbecomesthemostimportantsubjectintheschoolcurriculum.Ashort periodofreligiousinstructionmayremainforatime sothatparentsmaynotbecometooalarmed,butthe childrenareputunderincreasingpressurenotto attendit.OnthegroundthattheStatewillnowtake careofallsocialwelfare,Catholichospitalsandother charitableworksarelikewisetakenover.Church propertyisnationalisedandCatholicassociationsof allkindsdissolved.NunsandBrothers,whohadbeen engagedintheseworks,areforcedtoobtainsecular employment,theclergymustconfinethemselvesto runningreligiousservicesortoactivitiesapproved bytheGovermpent.Theymaystillpreachintheir churchesbuttheirsermonsareliabletocensorship andtheywellknowthatreprisalsmaybetaken againstthemselvesandtheircongregations.Toadd tothefinancialburdensofthefaithful,apartfrom supportingtheclergyandprovidingfortheupkeep oftheChurch,theyoftenhavetopayaspecialfee totheGovernmentforeachreligiousserviceheld.

Visitorstothecountrywillseethatthechurches areoftenopen,sometimescrowded.Theywillbear witnessthatfreedomofworship,asguaranteedinthe Communistconstitution,isrespected.Yet,while freedomofworship-insomesense-mayremain, theChurchwillhavebeenrobbed,silenced,cutoff fromtheyouthofthenation,drivenbackintothe churchbuildingsandpresbyteries.

3.-"DivideandConquer."

Ifpossible,divisionsshouldbecreatedwithinthe Church.SeparationfromRomeisencouraged. AlthoughCommunistsdonotthinkofbreakingoff relationswithMoscow,theyarefilledwithnationalisticindignationthatthePopeshouldhaveany authoritywithinthecountry.HencetheApostolic Delegate,orotherpapalrepresentative,isdrivenout anda"NationalChurch"isgraduallyproposed-as inChinarecently.WheretheschismaticOrthodox Churchexists,pressureisexertedonCatholicstojoin it-asinthe,Ukraine,Bulgaria,Rumania,etc.

CharlesBorromeo,thesaintwhowasanabbotat12,hasrightly comedowntousasanorthodoxreformerofthe16thcentury.He soughtnothisownglorybutthatoftheChurchwhoseprincehe was.

Hewasamanofzealand courage.Anditisforthis reasonthatanothersaint, PiusX,hasraisedhimup inourowntimesasashiningexampleforallCatholics.

ThestateoftheChurch whenCharleswasbornin 1538wasasorryone.MartinLutherhadbegunhis revolttwenty-oneyearsbefore;HenryVIIIhad triumphedoverallhis enemies,thusdividing Europeintotwocamps.

ThomasMoreandJohn Fisherweremartyrs,and thegreatdisastercalledthe Reformationhadhappened. ThiscamebeforeCharles wasborn.

Ashegrewuphesawthe needforreformwithinthe Church.Milan,hisnative city,hadnotseenaresident Archbishopforfiftyyears Themoralsofsomeofthe clergywereonlymatched bytheirignorance.Religious communities,publicworship,thepeople'sfaith-all thesewerecryingoutfor reform.Yetreformwas slowincoming.

Meanwhilethereformers were(toquotePiusX) -looseningforthemselves andforothersthebridleof licentiousness,andcondemningtheauthoritative guidanceoftheChurch,to Dandertothepassionsof themostcorruptprinces andpeoples,andwithavirtualtyranny,hadoverturneditsdoctrines,constitution, anddiscipline."

TrentAssembles

Incontrasttothis,came -likeafreshconsolationthesounddoctrineandzeal ofCharles "For Godsoordainedthathis ministrywastohaveaforce andefficacyallitsown,not onlyincheckingthe audacityofthefactions,but inteachingandkindlingthe faithofthechildrenofthe Church.

Throughtheeffortsof PopePiusVandhis nephew,Charles,nowthe PapalSecretary,thebishops princesandtheologiansof theChurchre-assembledat Trent.Overthe300miles separatingRomefromTrent couriersoftengalloped. bringinglettersfromthe PapalSecretaryadvising, soothing,andurgingthe delegatesontodeeds.At lastthisPentecostalgatheringproducedthelong-desiredreformdecrees.

Yetwhowasgoingtobe courageousenoughtocarry themout?OnePortuguese observedthattheRoman Curia,composedofmostillustriouseminences,indeed neededamostillustrious reform.Charles,then,was notillustrious.Yetheponderedoverthewords."Reform!Wemustbeginby reformingourselves."

DiocesanSynods

Likecharity,reformbeginsathome.Sohome Charleswent,thatis,back ,tohisdioceseofMilan.Did theCardinalhopetobring aboutreformbyawinning personality?Thiswasimpossible,forhewasnot naturallygifted.Hisstudies atPaviadidnotreveala brilliantintellect.Hestammered,hadanaquilinenose, whichseemedtohaverun inthefamily,and,ifnature didn'tmakehimgauntand thin,hisfastingsandpenancesdid.No,thisArchbishopwasnotasparkling personality.

Yetinhisheartthere burnedthedesiretocarry outtheTridentinedecrees nomatterwhatthecost.He startedwiththeclergy.By elevenDiocesanSynodswhichhaveservedasa basisfordiocesansynods since-heputbeforehis priestshismethodofreform. Theyweretobeeducated inthetruthoftheFaith accordingtoeachone'sin-

St.Charles tellectualability.Thus equippedtheywouldfight thehereticstothenorth, andmaintaintheChurchin allhersplendour.Above all,CharlesBorromeowas thefirstArchbishopto establishseminariesforhis futurepriests.Theimportanceofthislastworkcannotbeoverestimated.Perhaps,ifseminarieswere establishedacenturybefore, theReformationwould neverhavehappened.

Ofcourse,notallthe clergywereenthusiastic aboutthereforms.Onone occasion,whenvisitingthe churches(whichhedidwith amazingregularity)hewas barredbyarmedmen,gates wereslammedinhisface andshotsfired.Heescaped withoutinjury-thistime.

Inanotherattackhewas notsofortunate.OneafternoonVesperswerebeing sungintheArchbishop's palace.Surroundedbythe priestsofhishousehold,he waskneelinginfrontofthe altarwhensuddenlythere wasadeafeningreport.The Archbishopreeled.Smoke andgunpowderfilledthe air.Therewasamoment ofterrorbeforetheArchbishop,uprightonhisknees, oncemorestilledtheconfusion,andVesperswere resumed.Thewould-beassassinhadpenetratedthe Cardinal'sskinwithoneof thebullets,andsomadea bruisewhichBorromeobore fortherestofhislife.

ClericalReforms

-Allthatwilllivegodly inChristJesusshallsuffer persecution."Charleswas noexception.AtRomehis motto"Humilitas"seemed altogetheroutofplace.A cardinal-especiallythe Pope'snephew-whopractisedself-denialandheroic Penanceclearlyshowed himselfa"crank."

InMilanhewasforced tosuppres1certainreligious, correctthemoralsofhis clergyandremindthe Spanishgovernorsofthe citythatsomethingswere notCaesar's.Eventhe peopleatonetimehatedthe manwhoobjected'totheir banquetsandballsonfestivaloccasions.Theycouldn't abhor-asCharlesabhored-the30murderswhich tookplaceononesuchoccasion.Yetbeingcompletelydedicatedtothecauseof Christ,hewasiron-willed inseekingthepeople'sgood, despitethepeople.When theplaguestruckMilanin 1576,thegovernor,senators andnoblesfled,whilethe Archbishopremainedto nursetheblotchedvictims.
