"IndustryCouncilPlan"isthecommonlyaccepted Americantermfor"theorganicsystemofeconomic reconstructionoutlinedinQuadragesimoAnnoand manyotherpapaldocuments,"heexplained.

FollowingasummaryofFatherGerardDion,of LavalUniversity,helistedtheprinciplesbasictothe IndustryCouncilPlanasfollows:

CHRIST'SRESURRECTIONistheinspirationfor missionarydriveandits"courageousdefenceofthe whichtheedificeofhumandignityandChristian built,"theHolyFatherhasdeclared.

InanEasterEvebroadcasttoCatholicsofthe world,theHolyFather intertwinedtwoancient phrases:"THELORDIS TRULYRISEN"andits response"ANDHEAPPEAREDUNTOSIMON."

ThePopegavevoiceto theResurrectionmessageof hopeandtriumphandatthe sametimeunderlinedthe roleofthepopesasvicars ofChristonearth,vicars whotransmitandre-emphasisethatmessagethroughoutthecenturies.

Butinhismessagehealso warmlyshowedhisfeelings forthenon-Catholicworld andeventhenon-Christian world.

PopeJohnspokeofa movingEasterritecelebratedbytheOrthodoxin Bulgaria,wherehewasapostolicdelegateinthe1930's. Later,hereferredtohis "longing"thatnon-Catholics andallmenshareinthe blessingsoftheRisenChriSt andthat"allofthemmay betouchedbythejoyofthis exultantnews:TheLordis risenindeedandhasappearedtoSimon."

ThePontiffbrieflysketchedSt.Peter'spartingiving witnesstotheResurrection andtheLord'scommandto Peter"tocontinueandto directinHisplacethework ofevangelisationofthe world."

OurObligations

"Belovedchildren,"he said,"theworkforsouls, suchaspreachingandother actsofthesacredministry, givestestimonyofthe ResurrectionofJesus.And theresponseonthepartof eachofthefaithfultolive uptotheobligationsofa Christianlife-whichthe Popedoesnotceasetoencourage-contributesto strengtheningthevisible unityofHolyChurchand topavingthewayformany andfruitfulapostolicactivitieswhicharecarriedon tothefarthestreachesofthe earth.

"Thisisthemeaningof thetripleannouncementof thissacrednight-theLord istrulyrisen.Fromthisfact isdrawntheinspirationnot onlyofthemissionaryapostolatebutalsoofthecourageousdefenceoftheprinciplesuponwhichisbuilt theedificeofhumandignity andofChristiancivilisation."

Throughouthismessage, thePontiffintertwinedthe double-ideasOfthehistorical andspiritualconsequences oftheResurrectionandof theroleofthepopesfrom thetimeofSt.Peterin carryingouttheconsequenceofthatgreatestof miracles.

"Itisonaccountofthe ResurrectionofChristthat theGospelhasbeenpreachedoverthewholeworldby menwhowithstoodtheonslaughtsoftheforcesofevil

andovercameeverytypeof difficulty,"hedeclared.

ThePontiffsaidthatnotwithstandingtheeffortsof the"princeofthisworld" whohasexploitedhuman weakness"toleadmento giveintocompromises theGospelhaspenetrated likeafertileseedintothe soulsofmen."

"St.Peter,livinginhis successors,continuestoannouncethegreatmessageof theResurrection,"HisHolinesssaid."AndthoseChristianswhomorefervently professtheirFaithhaveput intopracticethelogicalconsequencesofthismessage, eveninthesocialorder."

ThePopedeclaredthatby virtueofChrist'sPassion, DeathandResurrection,a Christianisabletomeetthe vicissitudesofthislife.

"Painanddeath,tragedy andmiserycanweigh heavilyuponhisshoulders, buttheycannotbreakhis spirit,"hesaid.

PopeJohnthenturnedhis attentiontotheSecondVaticanCouncil,duetomeetin October,

"JustastheApostlesexperiencedanawakening aftertheResurrectionand afterPentecost-whichput thesealofapprovalupon theteachingsoftheDivine Master-sotodayareawakeningofChristianlife undertheardentinspiration oftheHolySpiritisabout togiveanewimpetusto furtherconquests,tomore generouseffortsintheserviceoftheLord."

PopeJohnsaidthecouncil'sopeningwillbelike"a newEastermorning."

SATURDAYOR

CatholicNorthCoast:A Protestantfriendofmineis thinkingofjoiningtheSeventhDayAdventistsbecause hefeelstheyarerightin observingtheJewishSabbathonSaturday,rather thantheChristianSunday: and amtryingtohelp himtoseehowthatisa mistake.

R.:AsaProtestant,of course,hewillwantyouto showhimthatfromthe Bible.Naturally,anyalterationoftheJewishreligion forChristianscanbeshown onlyfromtheNewTestament;butasaprofessing Christianheacceptsthat. NowtheNewTestament showstwothings,namely, thatJewishSabbathobservancehasbeenabolishedforChristians,andthat fromtheverybeginning Christiansadoptedthecustomofobservingthefirst andnotthe,seventhdayof theweek,thatis.Sunday, andnotSaturday.

R.:TheApostlesthought itgoodenoughtowarrantdescribingSundayhenceforth asthe"Lord'sday"for Christians-atermexpressly employedbySt.Johnin Apocalypse (Rev.,1:10).

R.:Thatistheordinaryteachingofboththe CatholicandtheEasternOrthodoxChurches,asit hasbeenforover1,500years.Anybooks,which happentodealwiththatparticularaspectofthe doctrineintheApostles'Creedthat,OurLord"was bornoftheVirginMary"wouldprovidesuch information.Normally,whenthinkingofthe VirginBirth,Catholicscontentthemselveswiththe twoideasthattheconceptionofChristwasmiraculous,duetothedivinepowerwithouttheinterventionofanyhumanfatherandthatafterthe birthofChristMaryremainedalwaysavirginin thesensethatshehadnofurtherchildren.Asthe EasternOrthodoxtheologianDr.GeorgeFlorovsky remarks:"Thetitle'Ever-Virgin'excludesmarital relationsasutterlyinconceivableifwereally believeintheVirginBirthandintheDivinityof Jesus."Lessattention,however,isusuallygivento thesecondofthethreeaxiomaticcharacteristics thatMarywasavirgin"before,duringandafter" herchild-bearing.ItisCatholicteachingthateven herphysicalvirginalintegritywaspreservedby themiraculoustransferenceofherchildfrom withinhertotheoutsideworldwithouttheusual birth-processes.

R.:TheEasternOrthodoxtheologianIhave quoted,Dr.GeorgeFlorovsky,saysthat"EverVirgin"meansshewas"overshadowedbythe poweroftheMostHighbothintheconceptionand intheactualbirthofChrist,"andthatMary, therefore,"isinauniquecategoryofherown,not asamerevirgin,butasvirgin-mother."Iquotean EasternOrthodoxtheologianbecausetheOrthodox ChurchesbrokeawayfromtheCatholicChurchin the11thcentury,retainingthisparticularCatholic doctrine.Thedoctrine,then,isnotmerelya "current"beliefoftheCatholicChurchnora mediaevalRomishinvention"assomeProtestants havecharged.ItisanabidingChristiantradition fromtheearliesttimes,towhichboththeGreek andLatinChurchesbearwitness.

NEWTESTAMENT TEACHING

Q.:MyfriendwantsSaturdayinsteadofSunday observance,and would liketoshowhimfromthe Biblewhereheismistaken. R.:Youcouldpointoutto himthat,whentheJewsaccusedthedisciplesofnotobservingtheSabbathlaws, ChristdefendedHisdisciples saying"Thesabbathwas forman,notmanforthe sabbath;"andHeinsisted onHisownauthorityto abolishsuchlawsbyadding: "TheSonofmanisLord evenofthesabbath"(Mk. 2:27,28).Again,whenHe enumeratedtheCommandmentsasinLk.18:20,He significantlyleftoutany referencetoobservanceof theseventhday.Acts20:7 speaksof"thefirstdayof theweek,whenwewereassembled,"showingtheChristianpracticefrontthevery beginning.St.Paultoldthe Corinthiansthattheold Mosaiclawwasabrogated, madevoid,doneawaywith t2Cor.3:7);hetoldthe Colossiansnottobother whatpeoplemightsayof themfornotobservingsahbathswhich,hesaid,were but"ashadowofthingsto come"12Cor.3:7);and writingtotheGalations,he condemnedthosewhosought toreviveJewishobservances asiftheywerestillofobligationforChristians(Gal. 4:10).Certainly,ifyour friendisguidedbytheNew Testamentratherthanby Mrs.EllenG.White,he won'tmakethatmistake.

Ireland'sbiggestsportsorganisation,theGaelicAthleticAssociation,whichorganisesthenativegamesof Gaelicfootballandhurling, hasdecidedtoretainits long-standingbanwhich prohibitsanymemberfrom playing,attendingorhelpingtopromotewhatitregardsasforeigngamesrugby,soccer,hockeyor cricket.Delegatestotheannualcongressoftheassociation,whichattractsattendancesofalmost100,000toits bigfinalsinCrokePark, Dublin,havevotedbyan eaterwhelmingmajorityfor retentionoftheban,which somememberswishedremoved.

PromotionofGaelicfootball,whichdiffersfrom soccerinthatthehandsare alsousedandthereisa largerteam,andofhurling, whichisplayedwithsticks andasmallballandis ratherlikehockeybutmuch faster,becameidentified overalongnumberofyears withtheIrishdesiretoassertindependence,andit wasarguedthattheplaying ofgamesnotnativetothe countrywasanacceptance ofthevaluesof"theancient enemy."

Manynowarguethatrelationsaresogoodbetween BritainandthccomparativelynewIrishStatethat theoldreasonsnolonger apply,butotherspointto theareaofIrelandstillin theUnitedKingdomwhere, however,boththeBritish BroadcastingCorporation andIndependentTelevision BowfeatureGaelicgames, whicharefastandexciting andwellworthwatching.
