PAN-ARABISM,DREAMOFPRESIDENT

Theselandscanbe dividedroughlyintothree overlappinggroups:

(1)AllotherArab States;

NASSEROFU.A.R.

(2)Africancountries, especiallythenewlyindependentonesandthosethecapitaloftheUnitedArabRepublicofEgyptandSyriabutalso whereindependenceis sought;

(3)TheAfro-Asian countries.

Theactivitiesdirected fromCairotowardsthe peopleoftheselandsare mainlypolitical,witha strongelementofMoslem religionoftenincluded.The MoslemuniversityofAlAhzarinCairoisoneofthe chiefagenciesforinfluencingothercountriesthrough religion.

Thepoliticallineisaneutralistone,sometimestilted leftward.Buttheoverrulingprincipleisthat leadership,forthecountries concerned,lieswithCairo, notwithMoscoworPeking anymorethanwithWashington,LondonorParis.

TheaspirationsofCairo naturallymeetobstaclesin theArabcountries,in AfricaandintheAfroAsiangovernments.Oneof itsmostsubtleproblems, however,willbetokeepits communist"friends"from usingittopromoteMoscow'sinterestsinallthree groups.

PresidentNasseraccepts materialaidandtechnicians fromtheSovietUnion,but heprefershisU.A.R.studentstolearnfromnoncommunistcountries.

Mr.Lemassrecalledthat Irishmissionaryeffortsin Nigeriabeganbetween50 and60yearsagoandplay averyimportantrolein theeducationalandmedical,aswellasreligious, lifeofthepeopleofNigeria.

Apartfromabuses,however,slaveryinitselfisnot necessarilywrong.

Q.:Nowaccordingtoyou theBibleisinfallible.

R.:Sincethe inspiredWordofGod,itis necessarilyinfallible.But onemustrightlygraspits meaningbeforeitsauthorityisquoted.Forexample, itmaybeinfalliblytruein describingthevicesofmen. Thatwouldnotjustifyone inquotingtheBibleasapprovingofthosevices.As regardsslaverytheOld Testamentsuggeststhatit wasoriginallypermittedby Godasapunishmentforsin, asinthewords:"Cursed beChanaan;ase:wantof servantsshallhebeunto hisbrethren."Gen.9.25The samebooktellsuslaterthat theEgyptiansallottedslaves toAbram;andthebookof Leviticusshowsthatthe

LawgivenbyMosestoleratedslavery,althoughunder manyconditionsmitigating severityoftreatmentinregardtoslaves.

Q.:HowcantheNewTestamentsay:"Slaves,obey yourmasters?" R.:IntheearlyChurch, ifaslaveofapaganownerbecameaChristian,the onlysensibleadvicetogive himwasthatheshould sanctifyhimselfinthemidst ofhisdisabilities.St.Paul, there,advisedsuchconverts tofulfiltheirduties,notin ordertopleasemen,butin ordertopleaseGod,asservantsofChristfulfillingthe willofGod.ItmustberememberedthatChristianity wasbornintoaworldin whichslaverywasanintegralpartofthesocial system.Thesuddenabolitionofslaverywouldhave disruptedsociety,andwould havemeantruinforthousandsofslaves,reducedto destitutionandrobbedofall security. therefore,wiserthanyourself,launchednodirect attack onthe institutionofslavery;they did, however, teach doctrinescalculatedtodo awaywithabusesandto rendertheconditionsof slaveslessunbearable.St. Paulinsistedthatmasters mustbehumaneandcharitabletowardstheirslaves; andheremindedChristian slavesthat,iftheywerein astateofservitudetomen, theyhadthatspirituallibertywithwhichChrist hadmadethemfree.You maybeaslaveofmanin thislife,hesaid,butyou areafreemanoftheLord.

Q.:WhydidnotChrist Himselfcondemnslavery?

R.:BecauseHedidnot comeasakindof,revolutionaryKarlMarx,preachingtheviolentoverthrow oftheexistingstructureof society.Hecametopreach thekingdomofGod,urging mentolayuptothemselves treasureinheavenandnot

LackOfAccuracyInBook

CondemnsItselfAndWriter

Enquirer,Erskineville:Wouldyouplease commentontheenclosedarticlebyArchdeaconT.C.Hammond,fromtheChurchof Englandpaper,"TheAnglican,"ofAugust 19?

R.:Whatyouhavesent mecannotrightlybecalled anarticle.Itisaletterto theEditor,inwhichArchdeaconHammondprotests againstthewayinwhich "TheAnglican"reviewed hisrecently-publishedantiCatholicbooklet."TheAnglican"suggestedthatthe bookletshouldhavebeen entitled"Hammondversus theChurchofRome,"stresseditslackofaccuracyand impartiality,anddeclared itselfunhappyaboutits havingbeenpublishedatall. Asthematerialinthebookletisofthesamequality asthatofsimilarwritings ofArchdeaconHammond which"TheRock"newspaper-notoriousforitsbigotry-findssuitableforits columns,Iwillnotburden mysessionwithmorethan thereferenceto"TheAnglican's"estimateofit,and withthestatementthat ArchdeaconHammond'sletterofprotestdoesnotunderminethevalueofthat estimate.

Q.:DidtheSynod,fArles, inCanon10,permitdivorceandremarriage?

R.:No.TheSynodof Arleswasheldin314A.D. Christianshadtoliveina RomanEmpirewhosecivil laws,accordingtopagan standards,alloweddivorce andremarriage.TheSynod ofArlesurgedbishopsto makeeveryefforttodissuadeChristianswhoobtainedcivildivorceon groundsofadulterytorefrainfromfurthermarriage whilethepreviouspartner stilllived.Thetemptation wasnaturallygreatfora Christianfacedwithsucha difficultytodropthepracticeofhisreligionandfollowthecustomsofpagan society.TheSynodstressedthedanger,andtheobligationofbishopstodoall possibletopreservethe faithfulfromit.

Q.:DidaPapalDecreeof 740A.D.alsopermitdivorceandremarriage?

R.:No.St.GregoryIII wasPopefrom731A.D.to 741A.D.Heissuednodecreeofsuchakind.St.Paul, in1Cor.7:8,hadcounselled widowsnottomarryasecondtime;butthiswasonly advice,notacommand,for headdedthatiftheyfound thistoogreataburden,then "letthemmarry." St. Gregory,withthisinmind, wrotein740toSt.Boniface inGermany,notonthesubjectofsecondmarriages, butofMorethantwomarriages. HetoldSt.Bonifacetodohisbesttopersuadethoseconvertedto theChurchinGermany, shouldtheyhavebeenwidowedtwice,tobecontent withtwomarriagesonly, andnottoenteruponfurthermarriages. Q.:Whendidprivatecanfessiontaketheplaceof publicconfessionofeins?

R.:Itisamistaketoimaginethatpublicconfession waseverreplacedbyprivate confession.TheProtestant theologian,MaxThurian, afteranexhaustivestudy ofthissubject,writesinhis recentbook"Confession" (1958):"Tosumup,private confessionandpublicconfessionexistedsidebyside intheChurchfromthe earliesttimes Public confessionmayevenbesaid tohavebeenexceptionalin theearlyChurch.Onlythe publicconfessionofguilt withaviewtoreconcilliation,withoutadetaileddisclosureofthesinscommitted,butprecededbyasecretconfessionwasgenerallypractised"(p.63).

Contemplatives NotShirkers!

T.M.C.,SYDNEY:FORTHESAKEOFA FRIENDOFMINE,WOULDYOUPLEASE EXPLAINTHEVALUEOFTHECONTEMPLATIVELIFE?

R.:ShehasinmindtheEnclosedReligious OrdersoftheCatholicChurch,suchasthatofthe CarmeliteNuns,whoforsakeallworldlyinterests andcontactsinordertodevotethemselveswithin theseclusionofthecloistertoalifeofprayerand contemplation.When,however,sheaskswhatis thevalueofsuchalife,wehavefirsttoexplainthe variouskindsanddegreesofvalues.Thereare valueswhichcanbeappreciatedonlyaccordingto one'sstandardsofeducation,understandingand insight,whethertheybematerialvalues,cultural valuesorspiritualvalues;andwhethertheyareto beconsideredasgoodinthemselvesandfortheir ownsake,ormerelyfromautilitarianpointof view.Nowinabriefreplyonecannotprovidethe educationnecessaryforittomeanverymuchto thosewhohavegivenlittlethoughttothesubject, andwhosewholewayoflifeisdifferentfromthat ofotherswhichpuzzlesthem.

Q.:Shethinksthosewholeadsuchlivesarevery selfish.

R.:Ifsheknewanythingaboutit,shewould realisethattheselfishtypeofpersonwouldnot dreamofenteringuponalifeofsuchself-renunciation,andwouldnotpersevereinitifshedid.As Christiansweknowthatthehighestdutyofmanis theworshipofGod.ChristHimselfinsistedthat thefirstandgreatestcommandmentis"Thoushalt lovetheLordthyGodwithallthyheartandsoul andmindandstrength."Itistruethatthesecond commandment:"Thoushaltlovethyneighbouras thyself,"isliketothefirst,butthatisnotneglected bycontemplatives,asweshallsee.Meantime,in theorderofvalues,worshipofGodforwhatHeis inHimselfrankshigherthantheserviceofGodin Hiscreatures.Contemplativesexemplifythistruth, renderingtoHimtheacknowledgementandworship,loveandobedienceduetoHiminallthe variedoccupationsoftheirenclosedlife-theirdetachmentfromtheworld,theirlifeofself-denial andtheconditionsofausterityunderwhichthey liveunderminingsteadilyallformsofselfishness.

Q.:MyfriendadmiresotherReligiouswhoteach, nurseorhelpthepoor,astheyaredoingauseful workandhelpingsociety.

R.:Thesecondcommandment:"Thoushaltlove thyneighbourasthyself,"hasitsplace.Butwe mustbewareofutilitarianviewswhichthinkonly ofwhatarecalledingeneralhumanitarianactivities.Godprovidesforsuchworksofmercy.In fact,themajorityofvocationstothereligiouslife aretoactiveOrdersengagedinthem.Butthe ChristiandoctrineoftheprimacyofGodasHeis inHimselfand,thatunionwithGodthroughworshipcanbeanendinitself,remains.Onlya comparativelyfewhavethetemperamentandthe graceforsohighanddetachedvocationtocomplete dedicationtosuchalife.Anditisnotananti-social vocation,asyourfrieindmightthink.Itiscomplete self-offeringinunsparingservicebyconstantprayer forallothermembersoftheChurchandtheenrichingspirituallyofthewholeMysticalBodyof Christmidstallitstrialsanddifficultiesinthis world.Weothers,immersedinallthedistracting affairsofbusiness,oronlytoopronetobecome comfort-loversandself-indulgentpleasure-seekers, needboththeexampleandhelpofthosewillingto devotetheirlivesentirelytospiritualideals.
