Pope seeks unity

By NC News Service A visit to the seat of world Anglicanism and a landmark agreement in Catholic-Anglican relations highlighted 'Pop~ John Paul II's six-day trip to Great Britain May 28-June 2. On the first-ever visit of a pope to England, Scotland and Wales, Pope John Paul' also pleaded repeatedly for an end to British-Argentine hostilities in the South Atlantic, met with Queen Eilzabeth II and embark­ ed on a full schedule of events designed to give new spiritual vitality to British Catholicism. In meeting after meeting with British Catholic groups he urged them to be living witnesses of faith in their lives and to resist influences of selfishness, division and hatred. While praising marriage as "n sacrament of salvation" and "the pathway to holiness" at a key meeting with families near York May 31, he warned against self· centeredness, " the growing num­

ber of divorces, the scourge of abortion, the spread of a contra­ ceptive and antilife mentality." But his explicitly pastoral and ecumenical visit reached its high point on the second day, May 29. The 62-year-old pontiff and Arch­ bishop Robert 'Bruce of Canter­ bury, primate of the world An­ glican Communion, met at his­ toric Canterbury Cathedral to pray and renew their baptismal promises together and to sign a "common declarati.on" establish­ ing a new Anglican-Catholic commission to resolve remaining doctrinal differences and rec­ ommend "practical steps" for the reunion of the two churches. The pope's visit was also his first to a country at war and had almost been called off a week earlier because of the Brit­ ish-Argentine fighting in the Falkland Islands, called the Mal­ vinas by Argentina. The pope saved the trip by stressing its pastoral, non-poli­ tical character and by agreeing to make a quick "pastoral visit"

to Argentina two weeks later. Yet repeated papal pleas for an end to bloodshed and a negotia­ ted solution to the dispute over the islands puntuated the pon­ tiff's travels in Britain. However, the Falkland Islands crisis had a surprising side ef­ fect of apparently diminishing promised protests of Protestant at papal stops extremists throughout the visit. A~out 200 protesters demon­ strated peacefully outside the Anglican cathedral in Liverpool as the pope visited there May 3D, and the next evening about 100 Protestant extremists pelted the papal car with crumpled paper in Edinburgh, Scotland. Elsewhere small groups carried anti-Catholic signs but in most cases lowered them at the re­ quest of the police. Although papal peace pleas made the biggest headlines, Pope John Paul's pastoral and ecu-' menical program was the chief focus of his own emphasis. Turn to Page Six

In The Shoes of the Fisherman As he returns to the Vatican from Great Britain, Pope John Paul certainly must be aware that he has made history. For the first time in the life of the Church, Peter has set foot on English soil. It has taken almost two thou­ sand years for this event to take place. We all have been its witnesses. _ 'Of all the nations in the world, England 'presented the pope with his greatest challenge. Even today most of the world looks upon England as a bastion of Northern European Protestantism. There are of course other coun­ tries with vast· Protestant majorities, but none so historic and influential as England. ' , The queen is still considered the Defender of the Faith, a papal title given special meaning in 'the early days of the Reformation. So ingrained is the Protestant mind that even today a member of the royal family may not marry a Roman unless he or she gives up all rights to the throne. The attitude that imposed such a law and that s.ubjected Cath­ olics to 'the infamous Penal Laws and loss of citizenship still lingers in many English backwaters. One must recall that only in 1850 was the hierarchy restored to the suffer­ ing English Catholic church. Today the British Catholic church -is alive and well, thanks primarily to immigration. ~lmost five million Irish and their descendants live in England along with large communities of Italians, Portuguese and Polish. What is considered the old English church remains influential al­ though very small in numbers. . Despite the difficulties of post-Reformation persecu­ tion, the Catholic Church in England has preserved re­ markable tenacity and purpose. The appointment 9f Car­ dinal Basil Hume, a "'Benedictine from a kt:lighted family, served well the church of Westminster. The remarkable re­ lationship developed between Rome and Canterbury since Vatican II has been a most positive step towards the heal­ ing of anci~nt wounds. In the past year England has es­ . tablished full diplomatic relations with the Vatican on the ambassadorial level, something that cannot be said of our own country. What will happen following the papal visit is mere speculation. What is certain is that the spirit of brother­ hood between the Church of England and the Church of Rome has been refreshed. The Catholic-Anglican dialogue can continue more prayerfully and perdurably after the joyful celebration in Augustine's Cathedral at Canterbury. The extremist voices reflected in the diatribes of Paisley have been reduced to no more than an irritating annoyance. John Paul has shown the non-Catholics of Great Britain that one need not fear Rome. The Catholic communities of England, Scotland and Wales' must indeed be congratulated for the 'energy and efforts they have expended to show their countrymen that the Catholic church is not a threatening minority but rather a religious body whose members seek peace and fraternity as loyal subjects of the crown. Not only is Great Britain better' for the visit of the pope but so too the world. The p,ontiff's courageous mission­ ary spirit is an example to all members of the church. He' has shown us that one must preach Christ whether con:­ venient or in~onvenient to one's personal Circumstances. Pope John Paul has demonstrated to us alfthat we should not fear to follow in the footsteps of the fisl1erman.

Today it is we who fulfill the task' that Jesus began as the Good Shepherd. Unfortunately, however, many devout Catholics leave the role of evangelizer to the clergy. Nothing could be fur­ ther from the practice of the early church! Person to person contact is the normal way in which our faith is transmitted. The church is vital and nec­ essary to the true believer. This may appear an exaggerated statement, but it is not. It only seems so because the stress of our culture forces other values t othe front of our lives leaving' religion in an isolated and quiet corner. Then too, some think they can bypass the church, creating a false dichotomy between organ­ ized religion and their personal relationship with Jesus. How­ ever, without the church, true -believers might not know Jesus and would lack many of the sac· ~ raments, our major way of en­ countering him. Knowing then the crucial role of 'the church, we should 'more actively participate in her efforts to evangelize all the baptized.

(Nuns and priests frequent­ ly mention this as a plus of celi­ bacy.) The technique coincides with two other incidents that took place awhile back. I received a letter from Mike and Joan Hox­ ley, family life directors of the Youngstown diocese, asking me to write something on the press­ ure of today's families to be per­ fect. They sent along their fine family newsletter, "The Family Knight," in which they wrote about the prevalence of this atti­ tude on parents everywhere. "U's a heavy burden this busi­ ness of trying to be perfect ..:... as it oftentimes leads us to a very lonely and isolated place," they wrote. "It's like one is al· ways running trying to keep ahead of a giant stone that gathers more and more momen-

Being perfect doesn't lead us to happy family life - it gets in the way. If there's a universal parental sin, it's vanity, thinking that we can be perfect. We can't. We're im­ perfect beings in need of redemp­ tion through family as well as through others in our daily life. The same day I received their letter, I guest-taught a class in family ministry at a local dean­ ery. One of the women in the course told me that she reads and likes my material but that it often discourages her because her children don't always respond enthusiastically to the ideas I suggest for enriching family life,. "Your children must be special," she said enviously. "Mine fight me and each other over the littlest things." I wanted to laugh and cry simultaneously because ringing in my ears was my latest counseling session with one of my perfect' children who couldn't understand

why he should hang up coat and

hat when he was just going to

hidden weapon that he might

his defense, pondering, I believe,

the awful prospect of living with

one or two just like himself.

Parents who are always trying to be perfect are alw,ays failing. Parents who accept their human­ ness are the winners. They ac­ cept themselves and their weak­ nesses. They know there are some very good reasons for their bad behavior. The best parents are the ones with the best mem­ ories - and the fewest kids just like themselves. ,

Dwight Eisenhower, not­ ing that people are more Jack Geiger, professor of com­ avid for peace than their munity medicine at City College leaders, once remarked "one of New York. of these days governments had better get out of their way and let them have it." He was quoted approvingly by several of the distinguished sci­ entists and doctors who spoke at a symposium, "'The Medical Consequences of Nuclear Weap­ ons and Nuclear War," organized by the Physicians for Social Re­ sponsibility. George Kistiakow­ sky of Harvard, who helped build the first atomic bomb, and Jer­ ome Wiesner of the Massachu­ setts Institute of Technology, who helped design our air defense system, referred to Eisenhower as a president who understood the horrors of nuclear war. From his own actions, Eisen­ hower obviously realized how much bolder peopJ~ are than politicians when it comes to peace. He waited until he had one foot Qut the door of the White House to make his famous speech of warning about "the milita,ry-industrial complex." U was the same with John F. Kennedy, who looked down the nuclear abyss and came up with the partial nuclear test-ban treaty. He later said that, had he understood the depth of the popular support, he would have tried for a comprehensive ban. Eisenhower's vision of a popu­ lar uprising against the arms race seems to have come true. One of its strangest aspects is the presence of America's me~i­ cal community in the vanguard of the movement. Doctors are not generally identified with so­ cial activism. Prestige, money and golf seem to be more on their minds. But the nuclear threat has galvanized them, and their dedication and commitment has astonished and thrilled the move­ ment's grassroots foot soldiers. They prescribe a nuclear freeze to their patients and at public meetings; they go on talk shows, write letters to editors, lobby congressmen. They are seized with the idea of trying to heal what Physicians for Social Re­ sponsibility President Dr. Helen Caldicott calls "a terminally ill planet.'" Physicians for Social ,Re,!!p.Ql1.siJ>ility has 13,000 mem­ bers countrywide. It has obscure dentists, small-town general practitioners - and Dr. Jonas Salk - on its register. The group's members are not immune to the smears of hawks. The name of Physicians for So­ cial Responsibility should be changed to "Doctors for Death and Surrender," they have been told. Their obsession with the issue is explained by one of their most articulate spokesmen, Dr. H.

"Yes, we're more associated with freedom from government control, maximum fees and op­ position to quality control. But we are physicians, we see death and suffering, and we can't be intimidated by it; we must con­ front it." Geiger gave the audience in the Lisner Auditorium of George Washington University a harrow­ ing account of what would hap­ pen to Washington - which was smiling outside on a perfect spring morning - if a one­ megaton bomb burst over it: People would be "crushed, blown, thrown, baked, grilled, broiled." A bearded doctor named Glen Gelhoed showed stomach-turn­ ing slides of burn victims at Hiroshima. In an attack, Wash­ ington would have hundreds of thousands of burn cases. "We have an eight-bed burn unit in Washington; all the beds are full," he said gravely. "George Washington University Hospital will not be here after an attack. U will be at the bot­ tom of the crater." The silence was broken only by the random hoots of the doc­ tor's beepers. George Washing­ ton ,University Hospital gave credit ,to students and doctors who took the heavy course. "The resolution is simple," 'Gelhoed concluded. "Thermonu­ clear war must be prevented." Up on Capitol Hill, Secretary of State Alexander Haig was ex­ plaining to a Senate committee Ronald Reagan's new disarma­ ment proposal, a gap-filled docu­ ment that most politicians found it politic to "welcome." Geiger said it sounded to him like a proposition to join Weight Watchers "except that neither side will begin' to diet for five or six years, during which they can eat anything they want." Kistiakowsky said, "The like­ lihood of nuclear war in the meantime will be far from negli­ gible." How much power do people have when they try to sweep aside governments who insist on making more and more nuclear weapons?-Dr. -Jerome Frank, an eminent psychiatrist, put super­ power leaders on the couch. They grew up in a pre-nuclear era when the nation with more arms was stronger, he said. "You get a feeling of help­ lesssness," the doctor said in one of the day's few upbeat moments. "But after you become active, you really feel better, a whole lot better." "It will take milliQns of peo­ ple to get rid of nuclear weap­ ons," he said, echoing prophet Eisenhower.

Garrahy inks pro-life bill PROVIDENCE, R.I. (NC) -:­ Gov. J. Joseph Garrahy of Rhode Island has signed into law a bill that requires wives to tell their husbands when they are'seeking an abortion. The governor, known as a strong opponent of abortion, al­ so signed' a bill requiring that women seeking abortions be no­ tified of the medical dangers in both abortion and childbirth. The same bill requires a minor to obtain parental or court approval before' obtaining an abortion. The first law requires the doc­ tor or his or her agent to inform the husband unless the wife con­ firms in writing that she has told him. These rules would not apply in an emergency or if the wife were pregnant by another man. ' The new laws become effective July 1. Steven Brown, executive di­ rector of the Rhode Island affi­ liate of The American Civil Lib­ erties Union, said the ACLU and Planned Parenthood of Rhode Island, will" challenge the law requiring notification of hus­ bands. Mrs. ,:Anna Sullivan, chair­ woman of the Rhode Island State Right to Life Committee, said the bills were modeled on laws that have been upheld by federal ap­ pellate courts in Florida and Massachusetts.

Special place Dear Editor: I know so many stories have been written about Notre Dame de Lourdes, and what a beautiful church she was. But she was much more than that to me. Inside her beautiful vastness she held in her womb the beauti· ful Grotto, small and simple com· pared to her beauty above. It' was my special place to run to, whenever the going was rough, my special place to pray, to listen, to just be there quietly and feel the presence of her love. I shed many tears with he~ and shared my most inner feel­ ings. Whatever problems I shared with her, I always left there feeling at peace with my. self, and when I went there look­ ing for answers she answered. No, I have not lost my faith in God or in Our Lady, I lost my special place to run to for com· fort and where my tears were washed away. I know we will build a new Notre Dame and maybe - just maybe - I might again feel that special presence of love of Our Lady of Lourdes. I love her so. Claire Pelletier S'ecretary, Notre Dame Parish Fall River

Where are men? Dear Editor: I am responding to the ques. tion posed by Dolores Curran: "Where are men?" (Anchor 30 April).... Curran states: "Not a single priest, deacon or lay man could free himself for the weekend ministry and women with child· ren at home were able to do so." Perhaps Curran should follow an average priest around for a few weeks, and she could answer her own pique! Follow "Father" call· ed in the middle of the night by the police to anoint those in· volved in carnage on the high­ way or in some joint ... follow him in and out of rest/nursing homes/hospitals visiting the sick, very sick or dying . • . in and out of the so-called "slumber rooms" praying over the dead and trying to console the living . . . spending hours trying to counsel those in the pits for one reason or another, offering daily Mass, trying to say his breviary and on Sundays giving a homily that won't offend our delicate sensibilities. ... Curran states: "I'm tired of playing games in a church where women want fuller participation and men don't care about parti­ cipating beyond the altar" . . . Curran must be cognizant that Christ is the architect and builder of his kingdom (Church). Like· wise she must be aware of the female role best exemplified by his Blessed Mother; Mary l>rought CHRIST into the world (ollowing God's divine plan. SI,e nursed him, guided him, supported him, and was part of his life up to and Includ­ ing his crucifixion. Mary, how-

PHYLLIS AND SAM TAUB of the Natio,nal Off­ ice of the Permanent Diaconate, Washington, D.C., will speak at a three-day retreat for deacons, deacon candidates and their wives the weekend of June 11 to 13 at the Family Life Center, North Dartmouth. With the them~ of "Ministry and Marriage: Its Joys and Difficulties," the retreat will be directed by Father John F. Moore, diocesan director of the permarient diaconate. The Taubs, natives of Wisconsin, have been married 34 years, meeting as college undergraduates. Taub served in the U.S. Marines from 1943 to 1969, then being placed on the permanent disability retired list. He was ordained to the diaconate in 1973 and was named associate pastor of his parish. In that capacity he is in charge of its catechumenate and, with his wife, specializes in hospital ministry. Since 1977 he has also devoted much time to the work of the Bishops' Committee on the Permanent Diaconate; and since 1980 he has served on the Arlington, Va., diocesan commission for the diaconate. ever, didn't preach, dictate, fo­ cus on improving womens' reo lationships or indeed interfere with the divine mission in any way except perhaps to initiate the redemption at Cana.

Crime and taxes Dear Editor: Crime and taxes are insepara­ bly connected. If we are going to bring more men and women into our courts and sentence them for longer terms, the tax­ payer is going to pay increasing­ ly heavy taxes. Multiplying cells across this State of Massachusetts to lock people away, coupled with the universally agreed upon failure of these warehouses to rehabili­ tate, is a guarantee that crime wili continue to 'increase. The candidate for governor who can decrease crime and taxes at the same time ought to be elected. One approach is to build, or contract out, more Pre-Release Centers and Half Way Houses. These have been proven to cost less to build, less to maintain, and those coming out" of them are much better, more produc­ tive, and safer citizens than ex­ offenders from places as Walpole and Norfolk. Also, the prisoners in there have to pay board, room, taxes, thus saving us taxpayers even more money. Another approach to reduce crime and taxes is through our interfaith prison ministry. To en­ courage such efforts which bring the love of God into the terrible problems of crime and punish·

Homosexuality Dear Editor: God's explicit command of Leviticus chapter 19, verse 22 "Thou shalt not lie with man­ kind as with womankind, be· cause it is an abomination" flies in the face of Dr. Roth's asser­ tion of May 7th, page 12, that homosexuality is a mental aber. ration, "no more sinful than al­ coholism." Homosexuality is indeed sinful as the Catholic Church has al­ ways taught. Those lustfilled in­ habitants of Sodom in Genesis chapter 19, were not blinded be­ cause, through no fault of their own, they were driven by some "mental aberration" to demand homosexual intercourse with two of God's holy angels! No, they were punished for their wilful involvement in the sin of homo­ sexuality, a sin which like all others, can be avoided by the Grace of God and an act of man's free will. Dr. Roth is deceiving herself and is not practicing Christian Charity for by downplaying, in fact denying,' the inherent sin­ fulness of homosexuality, she is serving as a stumbling block effectively muting the urgent ne.cessity for those poor souls lost in the grasp of this sin to free themselves if they are ever to hope of attaining their eternal salvation. Harry J. Booth South Dartmouth

The Sister was moving among the slums of a city in India. Unbelievably, she heard sobbing coming from a trash barrel. Brushing aside the flies and the vermin, she looked. Beneath the filth and debris was an old lady crying from tearless eyes as her life slOWly ebbed away. Tenderly the Sister lilted her, placed her on her shoulders and took her to the Hospice for tlie Dying. Before she died, the old lady told the Sister, "I'm not crying because I was in the gar· bage. I'm crying because my son put me there. He had to. There was not enough foM for the family." ... Tragically, this scene will be replayed many more times. But you can help to lessen it. Will you?

. IN MASSACHUSETTS, .

HAZARDOUS WASTE HAS

·ONLY ONE PLACE TO GO.

It adds up to 25 gallons for every person in Massachusetts. Every year. It's poisoned wells and. water supplies in 29 communities. And it threatens every city and town, It's hazardous waste. Where does it all come from? From just about every business large and small. Because hazardous waste )s part of making the products most ofus use every day. Industry in Plymouth and Bristol counties alone generates over 5 million galIons of hazardous waste every year. Hazardous waste doesn't mean' nuclear wa!!te. It means substances that are potentially dangerous because they're toxic, corrosive or flammable. Where does it ant go? Right now, Massachusetts has a few treatment plants. And some companies have their own facilities to safely dispose of their hazardous waste. Some hazardous waste is shipped out ofstate. But the cost involved is high. The rest is dumped illegally. By the side ofa road. Down a sewer. Into a brook or a stream. But that doesn't make it go away. Hazardous waste can travel for miles. Contaminate the earth. And poison the water we drink. In Rehobotl\, Dighton, Westport and Dartmouth water supplies have already been poisoned' by the illegal or improper disposal oftoxic chemicals. Dighton and Dartmouth have had to purchase water from other communities and find new sources. And they've also had to pay the high cost ofclean up and laboratory testing. On top ofall this, PCB's (known to cause cancer in laboratory

animals) have been dumped into the Acushnet River for years. What's the solution? Part ofthe solution is to create less hazardous waste to begin with. And to recycle as much as we can. But the big problem is how to dispose of the rest. Right now the best alternative is to build safe hazardous waste treatment plants. The idea may make you ner­ vous at first. But the technology is well established, and plants have been operating for years in Denmark, Germany and other parts of the U.S. Naturally, any hazardous waste treatment plant has to be properly built and maintained. And that's why Massachusetts passed the Hazardous Waste Management Act in 1979 and the Haz;irdous Waste Facilities Siting Act in 1980. Both are tough on developers. And the Siting Act gives communities strict control over plant development and operation. And complete involvement in the siting process. HaZardous waste treatment plains are a reasonable alternative to the illegal dumping going on now. That's why businesses are for them. Government is for them. Environmentalists are for them. And the best thing you can do is to learn all you can. . . #'~~o ~~~ f ~ .q . . '. '-a ~ ,. ' .' ~ _.~ .
