Therehavebeenmany controversiesinO'Connell Street;themostsustained isthatconcerningLordNelson,wholooksdownonthe street-andonlargeexpansesofthecityandthe seabeyond-fromhishigh pillar.

Nelson'spillaris,indeed, Dublin'smostfamouslandmark,andNelsonitsmost famousstatue,buthewas placedtherewhenDublin wasstillunderBritishcontrol.Everynowandthen, thereisacampaigntoreplacehimbyanIrishmanorIrishwoman-whoserved theIrishRepublic,andalthoughtherearemanyeligiblecandidates,LordNelsonstayswhereheis.

Nobodyreallydislikeshim: everybody'stripthrough town,whetherstrangeror native,isguidedbyLord Nelson:appointmentsare madeforthebaseofhl'.; statue,peopleclimbthe scoresofstepstoenjoythe magnificentviewwithhim, andifyouareastranger enquiringhowtogetsomewhere,youwillalmostcertainlyhesenttoNelson's pillartostartfromthere.

Provincialpeoplesettling inDublinfindthatNelson isoneoftheirfirstfriends. Theyquickly-learnhowto gettohim.whenthere,how togettotheirultimatedestination.Sometimesthedestinationcouldbereached withoutgoingnearNelsonby,say,a500-yardwalkbutinstrangestreetsa wrongturningiseasy,and sometimespeoplegoontravellingamiletoNelson,and thenamiletothedestination,ratherthantrustthemselvestotheNelsonless streets.

Ifheisremovedeventually,itwillnotbeoutofbitterness,butbecausethe growingtrafficmakesitdifficultforhimtojustfyhis standinthemiddleofO'ConnellStreet.Butothersclaim thathehasasteadyingeffect,slowingdownthemotoristsandkeepingthem, verydefinitely,ontheir propersidesofthestreet.

Thenthereis"TheThing" orwhatisleftofit,on O'ConnellBridge,which spanstheRiverLiffey.It firstcameafewyearsago aspartofaplannedannual Festival.Inthecentreof thebridge,asortoflong flower-gardenmadeitsappearance,togetherwithan illuminationwhichbecame knownas"TheBowlof Light."

THREEDIVINEEQUALPERSONS

B.G.,BRISBANE,writes:

owTheCatholicChurchteachesthatthethreePersons inGodareequalinallthings.

R.:Thatistrue.ThereisbutoneGod,andeachof theDivinePersonsisequallyGod.ThatiswhyOur Lordtoldtheapostlestobaptiseinthename-theone name-of"theFather,andoftheSon,andoftheHoly Ghost.-WhenwespeakofthethreeDivinePersons, however,wearespeakingofGodasHeisinHimself, apartfromallotherconsiderations.Additionalthings havetobetakenintoaccountwhenwesaythatthe EternalSonofGod,theSecondPersonoftheHoly Trinity,becamemaninordertobeourSaviour,being knowntousasmanunderthenameofJesusChrist.

"YETJESUSDECLAREDHISFATHERGREATER!"

Q.:WhatworriesmeisthatJesussaid:"TheFatheris greaterthanI"(Jn.14:28).

R.:OnceyoumentionthenameJesusyoushowyou arespeakingoftheSonofGodasmademan.

Inthecatechism,inanswertothequestion:Whomdo youbelieveJesusChristtobe?theansweris:Ibelieve JesusChristtobetrueGodandtrueman.InChrist, therefore,oneandthesameDivinePersonpossessed twonatures.HeretainedtheUncreatedandDivine naturepropertoGod,butalsohadthefiniteandcreated humannatureinwhichHewasbornoftheVirginMary. JesuscouldaccordinglyspeakeitherinvirtueofHis UncreatedandDivineNature,asHedidwhenHesaid: "IandtheFatherareone"(Jn.10.30):orinvirtueof Hiscreatedandhumannature,whenHeusedthewords youquote,namely:"TheFatherisgreaterthanI."That waspracticallysaying:"MyDivineNaturewhichI haveequallywithmyFatherisgreaterthanmycreated humannaturewhichyouinthisworldseemeto possess."

"ST.JOHNAS"THEBELOVEDDISCIPLE"

Q.:Also,whydoesSt.Johntheapostlecallhimselfthe "disciplewhomJesusloved?"

R.:St.John,inwritinghisgospel,about100A.D., wishedtoremainasanonymousaspossible.Instead

LawnMowersandShearsSharpenedandSet HarryArmstrongPty.Ltd.

ofusinghisownname,therefore,heusedadescription wellknowntothefirstChristians. OurLordhadshownanespecialloveforSt.John, evenentrustingthecareofHisMothertohim.Our LordundoubtedlylovedallHisapostles;butinSt. John'scharacteranddispositionsHefoundaparticular appeal.

Q.1IfOurLordlovedJohnmorethantheothers,why didHenotmakehimheadoftheChurch?

R.:ThefactremainsthatHedidnot,butthatHe appointedSt.Petertothatposition.Thegospelsleave ourcuriosityunsatisfiedastothereasonsforOurLord's decision,andwecanonlysaythatwhateverthose reasonswere,theywerefullyinaccordwithHisinfinite wisdom.

THE"POORINSPIRIT"

Q.:Also,couldyoutellniewhat"Blessedarcthepoor inspirit"means?

R.:Therearetwopossiblemeanings.Themostlikely is:"Blessedarethosewhoarenotproud."Thatwould meanaspecialblessingforthosewhoarelowlyintheir ownestimationandhumblyturntoGodnallthings.A secondmeaningcouldbeinreferencetoearthlypossessions,sothatthoseareparticularlyblessedwhohave suchaspiritofpovertyanddetachmentfromworldly goodsthattheywouldbepreparedtoletthelotgo ratherthanoffendGodbysininordertoget.keepor increasethem.OurLordwarnedusthatthetrue wealthofaChristianistoberichinworksofcharity ratherthaninworldlygoods;andthatthosewhohave earthlypossessionsshouldusetheminrelievingthe needsofthepoor,iftheywishtosavetheirsouls(Lk. 16:9).

"SERVILEWORKS"

Q.:Please,also,whatare"servile"works?

R.:Thecatechismtellsusthatwemustsanctify SundaysandHolyDaysbyfulfillingprescribedreligious dutiesandbyobservingtheSundayrestfromall unnecessaryservilework.Theword"servile"isa technicaltermdatingfromtheearlycenturieswhen patricianhouseholdsofancientRomehadgangsof slavestoattendtodutiesrequiringhardbodilylabour. Thereferencetodayismerelytothekindofwork forbiddenonSundaysandHolyDayswithoutserious necessity,suchasthatinvolvingphysicaltoil,or engagingincommercialandindustrialpursuits.Sunday shouldbeadayofrestfromsuchoccupations,thatwe maysanctifyitbyprayerandotherreligiousduties, andbymoderateandlawfulrecreationrefreshourselvesforanotherweek'slabouratourordinarytasks.

R.Morally,yes;although owingtolegaldifficultieshe wouldnotbeboundinconsciencetodoso.Inother words,hemaybutneednot doso,asfarashisownconscienceisconcerned.He maydosu,,fortheJehovah Witnesshasawrongconscienceonthepoint.Objectively,amanisobligedto acceptnormalmeansofpreservinghislife,andbloodtransfusionisanormaland ordinarymeans.IftheJehovahWitness,throughhis sect'speculiarmisinterpretationofScripture,thinksit wrong,then,sinceitisdone againsthiswill,heisguilty ofnomoralfaultandisnot forcedtoconsenttowhat hethinkswrung.Norwould thedoctor,doingwhathe thinksright,beguiltyofany moralfault.Ontheother hand,owingtotheabsence oflegalprotectionandthe possibilityofbeingsuedfor assaultonthepersonofthe patient,thedoctorwouldbe excusedfromanydutyof forcingablood-transfusion onanunwillingpatient,and couldallowhimtoputup withtheconsequenceshe bringsuponhimselfbyhis obstinaterefusal.

CASEOFACHILD

Q.:Whatofachildwhowill certainlydiewithoutthe blood-transfusionwhich theJehovahWitnessparentsforbid?

scienceisnotyourconscience;thattheyarejustifiedfromtheirownpointof viewinfollowingtheircon. science(suchasitis)rather thanyours;andthat,in viewofthelegalposition,in theinterestsbothofyourselfandthemedicalprofession,youareatleastnot morallyobligedtoactaccordingtowhathappensto bemedicallyindicated.

Q.:Wouldcompliancewith theJehovahWitnessesbe theoreticallyandethically correct,attheexpenseof thepatient'slife?

R.:Inviewofthelegal position,yes.Butifadoctor waspreparedtotaketherap shouldcivillawbeinvoked againsthim,hewouldcommitnomoralfaultasfaras conscienceisconcernedin givingthetransfusion.

TRAGEDYFORALL CONCERNED

Q.:Mostofuswouldfeelit almostmurdertostandby andwatchapatientdie, ourhandstiedbythemisguidedteachingofthe JehovahWitnesses,

R.:Onecanunderstand yourfeelings.Butyousay "almost"murder,realising thatactualmurdersupposes thedeliberateintentionof killinganotherperson. Neitherthedoctornorthe JehovahWitnesseshave suchanintention.Bothhope thatthepatientwillafter allsurvive.TheJehovah Witnessesintendtheobservanceofwhattheymistakenlythinktobethewill ofGod,resigningthemselves toapossibledisastrousconsequencewhichcanbe avoidedonlybymeansthey donotfeelmorallyfreeto permit.Thecaseisbetter describedasatragedyboth forthemandforthedoctor whofeelsjustifiedinrefusingtoactwithouttheirconsentinsteadoftakingthe lawintohisownhandsand doingwhathepersonally believestobeamorally permissibleandnec,:ssary procedure.

FamousPsalmOf Babylon

Curious,RoseBay:

MyDouayBibledescribesPsalm136.which begins,"Upontherivers ofBabylonwesatand wept,"asbeing"A psalmofDavidforJeremias."DidnotDavid livecenturiesbeforethe Jewswereledaway intotheBabyloniancaptivity?

R.:Yes.Davidlived about400yearsearlier. Jeremiastheprophet waslivingatthetime whenJerusalemwas capturedbytheBabylonians,althoughhehimselfwasnottakento Babylonwiththosesent intoexilethere. He had,however,prophesiedthatGodwould punishthenationin suchawayforitsinfidelities.

WHYASCRIBED TODAVID?

Q.:HowcouldDavid havewrittenapsalm whichwasobviously writtenbysomeone

themiseriesofthe captivity?

R.:Thetitle,"Apsalm ofDavid,forJeremias," doesnotmeanthatDavidactuallywroteit. TheDouayVersionderivesthetitlefromthe Greektranslationofthe OldTestamentmadeby theJewsofAlexandria aboutthe3rdcentury B.C.Thereferenceto Daviddoesnotappear intheoriginalHebrew textoftheOldTestament. TheAlexandrianJews traditionallyspokeofthe bookofpsalmsingenneralasthe"Psalmsof David"becausehewas regardedasthenational poetoftheJewsand wastheauthorofthe greaterpartoftheearlierpsalms.Probably theywishedtolinkthe nameofJeremiasalso withthepsalmsincehe hadpredictedtheBabyloniancaptivity.Just whattheAlexandrian Jewshadinmindcannot beknownnow;butCatholicbiblicalscholars agreethatPsalm136 waswrittenduringor shortlyaftertheBabyIonianCaptivitybysome unknownauthor.Itis, ofcourse,asmuchpart oftheinspiredWordof Godasanyoftheother writingsintheOld whohadexperiencedTestament.

R.:Thesamesolutionapplies.Thedoctorwouldcommitnomoralfaultindefyingtheunreasonableoppositionoftheparentsand safeguardingthechild's righttolifebygivingthe transfusion.Hecouldsayto them,"Sinceyouhavenot consented,youwon'tbe answerabletoGodforthis. Iamgoingtogivethetransfusionandampreparedto taketheresponsibilityupon myself."Again,however,in viewofpossiblelegalconsequencesowingtonoexpresslegislationauthorising himtotakesuchastep,a doctorwouldcommitno moralfaultifhechosenot toactagainsttheopposition oftheparents;declaringthe deathofthechildtheirresponsibility.

MORALPOSITIONOF DOCTORS
