We could notexpect the hatchet man,Pot Pol,ruler of Cambodia, to allow anAmerican imperalist film crewinto the ghost city, Phnom Penh.once when Pot 'Pol was askedwhat happend to Phnom Penh,he blithely responded that hecould not feed the people in thebig city and so he moved themto the country.
WiUiam Buckley, WashingtonStar columnist, in his April 21article, said that there is no wayof undoing what the Nazis didin the holocaust but that we doprofit from reminding ourselvesabout it "by resolving that sucha thing shall not happen again."Such things are happening saidBuckley, in Cambodia just asthey happened in the genocidalwar against the Ibo tribe in Biafra and shortly before that, inRuanda and 'Burundi. where thedominant tribes slew others witha vengeance Eichmann wouldhave envied.

The holocaust should not happen again, but to be realistic weknow that it can happen again,if we do not stay on top ofanti-Semitism. After My Lai, wesaid that such atrocities wouldnever happen again in Americanwars. I am', not too sure. Allwars are hell and we have noguarantee against American involvement in another Vietnam orworse.
I did however hear a remarkrecently that gave me a lift.Haynes Johnson, on the Agronsky and Company TV program,said that the phenomenal response to "Roots" and "Holocaust" was evidence of the increasing sincerity and maturityof the American public.' He feltthat such an overwhelming response would have been inconceivable in the America of 10years ago.

The Cambodian HolocaustBy Father John B. Sheerin. CSP
A few days after the showingof "Holocaust" on TV, JimmyCarter let fly with a fusillade atthe Cambodian government. Itwas the strongest statementmade by the ,President since hetook office 15 months ago. Hecondemned Cambodia as "theworst violator of human rightsin the world tOday."
From Cambodian refugeesCarter had learned of "mass killings, inhuman treatment of thesupporters of the previous government . . . the total suppression of recognized political andreligious freedoms as well as deprivation of food and healthcare." The president called onthe other countries of the worldto ,register protests.
What has all this to do withthe "Holocaust" film? I mention-it here because there were manyviewers of the film who wereshocked and outraged by Nazibutchery but were content toforget about it because "it cannever happen again."
Carter's protest proves thata large-scale slaughter such asthat in Germany can happenagain. It is happening in Cambodia. It is estimated that a million people have heen killedthere since the communist regime, aided by Red China, hasbeen attempting to purge thesupporters of the previous, Cambodian regime.
A TV series on CBS a fewweeks ago showed some ghastlyscenes that took place in Cambodia. And one, that spoke louder than words was a view of thegreat city of Phnom !Penh, the

Vote and March for Life, not Abortion
Here are two statements that should be read with dueconsideration by Catholics and non-Catholics alike wh:>really do care about life.
The first is from a press release from Massachusetts. Citizens for Life on a recent federal court ruling on parental
consent."By ruling parental consent unconstitutional, the fed
eral district court in Boston has dealt another devastatingblow to family life.
"Doctors may now perform an invasive procedure onunmarried minor girls which may affect the rest of theirlives without the knowledge of their parents. .
"Any doctor could be sued for assault and battery ifhe removed a minor's appendix, administered local anesthesia, or took a stitch for a laceration without parentalconsent. We ask: why the double standard?
"Today's ruling is a malevolent attack on the naturalrights of parents and the entire family structure. Lastyear's poll in the Boston Globe showed the public wasagainst such a Haw.
"We invite all outraged citizens who share our concemto come forward now and work for the defeat of all thoseelected officials who vote, and vote, and vote to use ourtaxes for payment of abortion. It is time to put an end totaxation without representation."
The root cause that prompted .such a statement showshow far we have let things get out of hand. Voter apathyis one of the prime reasons why many public officialscould not care less about life.
Such attitud.es are reinforced by statements from lead··ing foundations that deride and scoff at pro-life activities.
Such an attitude is clearly shown in a letter receivedby The Anchor fJrOm the Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter of the National Foundation - March of Dimes.
The executive director of this chapter wrote in part:"This chapter stands ready to accept any new applicationsfor genetic services and will not be pressured by antiabortion forces to alter our policies and programs. I appreciate any action you might take to better inform theresidents of Southeastern Massachusetts of the goals andobjectives of the March of Dimes."
Well, the executive director can be well assured thatwe call to the attention of our readers the apparent proabortion attitude that permeates the literal sense of thequoted statement. If such be the case, then this chapterof the March of Dimes does not deserve one red cent fromany Catholic in this diocese.
In the case of abortion, all of us should realize thatthere is no middle ground. You are either for or againstlife. Otherwise you start playing God. It is indeed mostunfortunate that such a defiant spirit should permeate thementality of a foundation that has accomplished suchnotable medical progress in the past. Why must i.t nowtarnish its image?
This paper urges you that you support life, vote for lifeand support only pro-life medical foundations.

conate ministry of service. Hesaid that stress must be placedon the role of the wife in herhusband's vocation.
"It is imperative," said thedirector "that during the formation program the wife be encouraged to grow and developwith her husband."
During his homily, ArchbishopJohn F. Whealon of Hartford,principal celebrant of the Eucharistic liturgy closing the assembly, discussed the possibility ofwomen deacons. He said thatmuch theological study would beneeded in the matter and that itwas unlikely that a decisionwould be forthcoming in thenE\ar future.
Directors of permanent aiaconate programs in New Englandmet during the day and resolved:
-That the Bishops' Committeeon the Permanent Diaconate andthe National Association of Permanent Deacon Directors beurged to co-sponsor one annualnational meeting rather than twoseparate gatherings;
-That the New England Deacon Assembly become an annualevent;
-That New England directorsmeet on a regular basis;
-That greater use of the media be encouraged in order tocorrect misunderstandings regarding the permanent diaconate.
Assembly workshops wereheld in the fields of ecumenism,hospital and nursing home ministry, work with prisoners, theaged, youth, alcoholics, the deaf,families, students and Hispanics.
Additionally, each deacon director conducted a session during which he explained his diocesan program.

ing change in individual familiesby involving them "like-to-likeministry," such as divorcedCatholics counseling the divorced and parents aiding other parents.
The Call to Action plan approved at the meeting puts asimiliar emphasis on individualactions in the area of social justice.
The five-year-plan, the U.S.bishops' response to the 1976Detroit Call to Action conference, outlines actions required insix areas; education for justice;church and people; justice; human rights; and world hunger.

1887 when the area was part ofthe Providence diocese. Thechurch then located on HunterStreet. was already 10 years oldand the original French nationalparish for the Fall River district.
It soon prospered under theDominicans to the extent thatexpanded accommodations wereneeded. The present South MainStreet location was selected andthe church was designed byCanadian architect NapoleonBourassa to rival the Canadianshrine of St. Anne de Beaupre.
Mortar and stone, however,were not the primary contributions of the Dominican Fathers.More important were their apostolic works, especially in thefield of education. Dominicansponsored schools were established throughout the city, esspecially in the South End andMaplewood areas, and were finally consolidated in St. Anne'sSchool, with a capacity of 1500students.. Two Dominican priests werealso responsible for the foundingof St. Anne's Hospital, one asthe person responsible for bringing the Dominican Sisters of thePresentation to Fall River tostaff the facility and the otheras its architect.
Next Sunday's program willinclude a 5 p.m. Mass of Thanksgiving, with Bishop Cronin asprincipal celebrant and homilist,and a banquet at the Condesarestaurant in Somerset.
Banquet tickets are availableat St. Anne's rectory and several Fall River business establishments.

Before the general meeting, thebishops' Administrative Boardvoted to withdraw the SouthernAfrica statement from consideration because of rapidly changingsituations in Rhodesia, South Africa and Namibia.
The decision to postpone consideration of the statement indicated "no lack of convictionabout the issue," sa!sl Archbishop John R. Quinn of San Francisco, NCCB-USCC president, ata press conference after themeeting, but rather recognitionof the realities of the situation."
The statement as proposed bythe USCC Committee on SocialDevelopment and World ·Peacecalled on the U.S. government torestrict and discourage U.S. business from investing in South Africa and its trust territory, Namibia, and to abide by U.N. sanctions against Rhodesia.
The ERA question, brought upwhen an ad hoc committee onWomen in Church and Societyasked to issue a statement in itsown name supporting the ERA,was the subject of intense lobbying pro and con.
In its .statement, the women'scommittee, chaired by BishopMichael McAuliffe of JeffersonCity, rejected charges that passage of the ERA would harm thefamily or adversely affect antiabortion e·fforts. But the Administrative Committee decided instead to stand by a 1972 conference policy which concludes "thedoctrinaire character and broadsweep of the amendment mayvery well destroy the unity essential to a stable family relationship."
By far the major topic of discussion at the bishops' meeting,however, was the plan of pastoral action for family ministry,which was approved unanimously after a preliminary discussion,an afternoon of workshops andseveral amendments.
It calls for diocesan planningfor family programs beginningin 1979 and implementation ofparish programs and celebrationof a Family Year in 1980, to befollowed by a decade of "reflection and research toward the development of quality family lifeprograms, and an emphasis onthe family's social mission.

of the finding that only 16 percent of the Catholic kids in thecountry are impressed by thequality of the sermons they hear.
There was one appaJling lapseof professionalism in the Gallupsurvey. Respondents were askedwhether Latin Mass should bePERMITTED in their own parish. Sixty-seven percent agreed,to the delight of Catholic traditionalists and the misunderstanding of the secular press.The Chicago Tribune, for example, headlined the story,"Most Catholics Favor LatinMass."
I am simply astonished thatthe Gallup organization did notthink to ask whether the respondents preferred the Englishor the Latin Mass. Or was someone at Gallup or the CPA loading the dice? In any event, andfor the record, 87 percent ofU.S. Catholics approve of theEnglish liturgy. They are truepluralists, in other words. They'llpermit the Latin Mass, but theylike the English Mass. Perhapsthat's too subtle a distinction forthe Gallup folks to grasp.
confident about the good newsfrom Gallup, let me note someother, as yet unpublished, NORCfindings:
Only about 20 percent of American Catholic teen-agel's admire the life that priests andnuns lead. Only a quarter ofthem say they ever thought ofbeing a priest or a nun. Only aquarter say they can feel closeto a priest. A little more than Iithird think that priests are excellent at understanding theproblems of teen-agel's. And only16 percent of the Catholic adolescents in the country think thatsermons are excellent.
In 1963, 70 percent of Catholic teen-agers thought premarital sex was wrong now only40 percent think so. If you wantto use Mr. Gallup's approach ofthe half-full glass, you can saythat despite all the changes,there are still two-fifths of theCatholic teen-agel's in the country who think that premaritalsex is sinful.
But I defy Mr. Gallup or anyone else to make good news out
What frosts me about the Gallup/CPA study is rather its resolute inattention to previousNORC research on the same subject. There is nothing in the Gallup/CPA report that we did notanticipate three years ago. Thisdoes not mean that their reportshould not have been done; itdoes mean that intellectual honesty, scholarly integrity and human graciousness would seem todemand that they acknowledgethe existence of previously reported resea.rch.
We always carefully footnoteMr. Gallup's findings in ourwork, and I do not think I amunjustifiably affronted when heand the Catholic Press Association ignore ours.
Lest Church leaders get too
Uoth statements are true;there is nocofltradiction between them I leave it to Churchleadership whether. they reactjoyously or not to the thoughtthat some four-fifths of theirmembership reject the teachingof the encyclical "HumanaeVitae."
A Depressing Study of the U.S. Catholic Churchbetween the Gallup and NORCfindings is that the former notesan upturn in church attendancewhile we do not. However, eV('nthis is not a real difference, b~
cause we do not report increasesor decreases in church attendance until they have been sustained for two years.
Nor am I irked because Mr.Gallup inshits that his researchrepresents "good news" for tteChurch. The issue here iswhether one chooses to say it eglass is half-empty or half-full.Our report was that althoughmany Catholics still define themselves as such, and affiliate withthe Church in many differentways, they reject her right toteach them in certain criticalareas, such as race and sex. Th'"sis bad news for the Church.
Mr. Gallup reverses the rhetoric and says that althoughmany Catholics reject theChurch's right to be a definitiveteacher, nonetheless they still a':filiate with the Church and engage in many different forms ofreligious behavior, and this :sgood news for the Church.

I will confess that I amirked by the Gallup/Catholic Press Association studyof the state of AmericanCatholicism.
I am not irked because theCPA commissioned the studyor because they chose Gallup todo it. It's a free market andpeople can 'purchase their research from anybody. Nor am Iupset because the Gallup findings are at odds with previouslyreported National Opinion Research Center findings. Whenpeople ask, "How do you explain the fact that Gallup provesyou wrong?" my response is thatGallup does not prove us wrong,that given the different wordingsof some questions the researchconfirms rather than refutes ourown findings.

It was late as the old artistsat by his kitchen table stirring an already cold cup oftea. His sweater was so wornand patched it no longer kepthim warm. He pul1ed it closer,trying to ward off a chill thatwas .coming from inside hisbones.
He was weary. But his weariness was not fatigue. He felt hewas a failure. Never, in all hisyears, had he painted one picture exactly as he had wantedto.
He leaned heavily on the table
to help himself to his feet ar;dshuffled to ::-Jis bed. As he passedthe mirror, it reminded him thathis grey ha::r was unkempt. Perfunctorily, he ran his har:dthrough it . . . but that didn'tchange the need for ~l haircutand a shave. He refused to acknowledge the reflection ... ar.dslumped to his bed.
The won:. slippers fe] readilyfrom his feet. There was r:oother preparation for sleep, butit didn't matter for sleep wouldnot come anyway. Every tirrehe closed his eyes the vision of"his painting" haunted him. Foryears he had tried . . . btltcould never capture it on canvas. Yet night after night it WB.S
so clear in his mind . . .
The o~ly way to escape it wasto reach th,~ light.
Reaching overhead, his han iswayed in the blackness till he
found the string that wouldchase the specter. He found itboth amusing and humiliatingthat one bare lightbulb had suchpower over his mind.
His hand groped the bed until it caught the corner of Ii
threadbare portfolio. Drawing itout, he remembered the dayswhen his ta.lent was young andhis aspirations indomitable.
The first painting had beendone when he was very young.Being too anxious, he hadn't prepared the canvas properly. Ithad been a beautiful picture . . .but now it was faded, his message lost.
With the second he had takengreat care. He had worked dili-"gently, used all the best materials and followed the time-testedtechniques. But in spite of hisprecaution, some of the materials were faulty. Studying the
finished picture now, he realizedthe colors had changed. It wasdistorted . . : no longer conveying his original intent.
Then he came to the one . . .the one that was to be "hispainting." That was when theinspiration had overpoweredhim with a vision that wasmagnificent. Yet rememberingthe long labor on it, all thatstruck him was that the paintingseemed to have a life of its own,pulling itself away from his original theme.
The picture had bold brilliancewhere he had envisioned softmuted shades ... and soft areashad developed a fire of theirown. The finished painting wasbeautiful . . . but so far fromhis original plan.
The next painting he thrustinto a carton of trash . . . thendrew it back and replaced it in
the portfolio. Studying it alwayshurt. That had been the closestto his dream . . . and vandalshad destroyed it.
The beginnings of a smilesoftened his eyes as he studiedthe next. It had been done later,at a time when he could not gethigh quality materials. Yet therewas something beautiful andtender about that painting.
Replacing them gently underthe bed, he tried once more tosleep. His mind again studiedevery little detail of "his painting," every bit was so clear . . .But he knew it would never be. . . There were no materialsleft.. .
A tear slipped down his furrowed cheek.
He wondered if there was anyone else in the world who hadspent his lifetime not quite ableto achieve that which he had setout to do.

1150 JEFFERSON BLVD.WARWICK, R.I.
(Rt. IS South· AIrport Ellt)
orders of men and women varygreatly in the types of workthey do in the Church. Naturally,the mental and physical qualifications would vary accordingly.A missionary in a foreign landneeds certain abilities that ahigh school teacher might' notneed; and both of these woulddiffer from the requirements ofa more contemplative community, which demands its ownphysical and mental qualities.
Some illnesses or handicapswould naturally make life in areligious community difficult orimpossible. But religious communities exercise such a varietyof service today that it is en·tirely possible your handicapwould not rule out the religiouslife.
My suggestion is that youwrite to a priest, Brother, orSister whom you know, perhapsin the religious order that youare most drawn to, and ask .theiradvice. You don't lose anythingby trying, and with some askingaround, and with some' prayers,you may find just what you'relooking for.

Question (ornerBy Father John Dietzen
Q. A small study group I belong to just read the Book of Judith in the Old Testament. Wewere puzzled: How can the Biblehold up as a model such violence and living as this womanshowed? Do we have to believethat really happened?
A. In this, as in all parts ofthe Bible, it is important that wetry to understand the spiritualtruth which the writer intended,and which the people understoodin it when he wrote it.
After all these centuries, it isimpossible for us to determineexactly how historical theseevents were - or whether theheroine of the story ever reallyexisted as she is described. Perhaps the book is woven aroundsome actual event, or maybemuch of it is meant only as akind of parable.
Whichever is the fact, however, the purpose of this beautiful, if somewhat bair-raising taleis to remind the Jewish people.and ourselves of the love and.power of God in delivering Hispeople from slavery and otherevils, and of how this divinepower is shared by those whoare faithful and trust in Him.
The lesson is not that we cutoff the heads of those we don'tlike, but that incredible beautyand strength come mainly fromthe inside of a person - fromone's courage, goodness, andgenuine love for one's neighbor.
Q. Must a person have a personal reference or sponsor toenter a religious order? I have ahandicap, and' my brother tellsme that if someone has a physical illness it is a sign that theindividual doesn't have a religious vocation. What abouthandicapped men and womenwho are otherwise healthy?

12 THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. May 11, 1978
By Father David Tracy
In our century the role of theintellectual in Catholicism is vital. One of the most crucial intellectual rol~s. is that of thephilosopher whose task allowshim to reflect upon the verymeaning of truth and reality. Inthe Catholic tradition, philosophy has always played a centraltask in the development and understanding of the faith.
From the earliest Christianapologists through the greatsystems of Augustine, Aquinasand Bonaventure, the greatCatholic thinkers have beenboth theologians and philosoph'ers. In our own century, wetum to thinkers like Gabriel Marcel, Jacques Maritain, BernardLonerg~n and Karl Rahner towitness this great philosophicaltradition at work.
For many, Professor LouisDupre continues this tradition inhis own groundbreaking work intheology and the philosophy ofreligion. Born in iBelgium, Duprehas taught for most of his career in the United States. He wasfor many years at GeorgetownUniversity before being appointed to the chair of Catholic theology and philosophy at Yale.
He was first known for his interpretations of the philosophiesof Kierkegaard, Hegel andMarx.
With the 1972 publication of"The Other Dimension: A Searchfor the Meaning of ReligiousAttitudes," Dupre became internationally recognized as oneof the foremost living scholarson the meaning of religion. Thismagisterial book provides penetrating criticisms of theorieswhich try to reduce religion topsychological or sociological realities.
It also offers erudite and original interpretations of all themajor religious realities: signs,words, myths, the reality of thesacred, the names for God, creation, alienation, sin and salvation, and, above all, mysticism.
Above all, the reader cannotfail to note that here is a philosopher of the first quality who understands not only the greatCatholic philosophical and theological traditions but also theoften neglected Catholic mysti-cal tradition. .
Louis Dupre helps his readersto see how the experience of themystic is essentially the religious dimension of our liveswhich each believer shares. Themystic, therefore, is not strangeor alien to the .experience offaith shared by all Catholics.Rather, he has been gra~ed toexperience more deeply the samefaith experience which everyCatholic has a vocation to nurture.

By Father Augustine Henness}'
Some people can be aptlycalled secular saints. In the faceof suffering, they are conspicuously humane. The cost of living by their own convictionssometimes asks them to laydown their lives for their friends.And they do it bravely.
Such saints explicitly disavowbelief in a personal God. They .look upon Jesus as just anothertransient prophet. They considerthemselves entirely self-made.
I believe these people havebeen touched by the divineChrist. Believers like me callthem unconscious Catholics o:~

By Father Alfred McBride
During his aengthy rule of theCatholic Church (1846-78), PiusIX lost the Papal States and thechurch's secular power, undaunted, he turned this apparentdisaster into an extraordinaryvictory for the spiritual authority of the papal office. Utterlydevoted to the concerns of thechut:ch, Pius exhibited rockhard religious faith coupled withan astute capacity to win unparalled devotion' to the· popefrom millions of' ordinary' Catholics.
Liberals of the day. groanedat his conservative ·policies buthe combined conS4~rvaiive 'withpopulist leanings. Unlike kinglypontiffs before him, Pius lovedto be out with the. peElple., Hewalked about Rome· meeting,laughing, talking and. tradingstories with the people ~ anendearing trait partially pickedup by Pope John XXIII a centurylater.
iIt was ,Pius IX who introducedthe modem massiVe papal audiencesas instruments of influenceand contact with hundreds of
. thousands of the ordinary faithful.
His effort to personalize thepapacy was accompanied bywhat is caMed the Romanizingof the church. Previously bishopsof various local churches Germany, France, Spain, Austria,Hungary - had acted fairly independently of Rome in manymatters. Though in faithful communion with the Holy See, theynevertheless prized their individual differences.
But the twin forces of Protestanism and the rise of the secular liberal states created whatchurch historians call "ultramontanism" (literally, beyondthe mountains _. or ~ooking
south of the Alps). The nationalchurches north of the Alpsfaced hostile Protestant and secular liberal states. What morenatural. for them tc do, but tolook south to Rome to find adefense against the whims ofunfriendly rulers and aggressivehostile intellectuals.
Thus national c:hurches withfew exceptions, were willing tointernationalize, so to speak, andcentrailize the forces of thechurch in Rome. Living as longas he did, Pius IX was able toinstall like-minded bishops inmajor dioceses such as Westminster, Armagh, Vienna andMunich.
Keeping in mind Pius IX'spopularizing of the papacy andhistory's centrali:dng of thechurch in Rome, it is easier tosee why the doctrine of infallibility came to the fore at theFirst Vatican Council in 1870.It was a doctrine consistent withthe renewed spiritual authorityof the pope and with the "unityin strength" movement characterized by the centralizing of

To unite these seeminglydiverse traditions with the richexperiential character of American religious thought and thedemanding skill in rigorousanalysis of contemporary philosophy is no small task. But in Dupre's writings one finds thoseskills and traditions reinterpreted in a modern and originalfashion. For in his work thephilosophical reality of Catholicism lives anew.

Since he would not bend, hehad to break, and on Sept. 20,1870, Italian troops marched into Rome and the centuries-oldPapal States were no more.Rather than face reality and accept the proffered Law of Guarantees, he preferred to shut himself up in the Vatican. Thus began the so-called BabylonianCaptivity of the papacy, whichlasted until 1929. .
Freed from defending and ruling the Papal States, Piusturned to strengthening thechurch from within, in line withthen current theological viewsof her nature. He tightenedRome's authority and control,and the result was an amazingcentralization of function andauthority in the Vatican.
Still, Catholic people throughout the world venerated him asa courageous defender of thechurch, a martyr to the truth.When the ,First Vatican Council(1869-70) prociaimed the doctrines of papal primacy and infallibility, they applauded loudly.
In reality, he was everythingthe faithful believed him to be:profoundly spiritual, a man ofprinciple, possessed of a mostengaging personality. Despiteexternal troubles he had notneglected the more importantconcerns of the church.
He signed concordats withRussia, Spain, Austria and manyLatin American countries. He reestablished the hierarchy in England and the Netherlands, erected 206 new dioceses and vicariates apostolic, and fostered afar-flung missionary endeavor.
His proclamation of the Immaculate Conception (1854) gavea powerful impetus to Mariandevotion. So many of these accomplishments are forgotten inthe furor occasioned by his publication of the unfortunate Syllabus of Errors.
AU in all, he was a great andgood man, hampered by the enduring effects of his childhoodillness, by the ineptitude of hisstaff and by an ecclesiology thathad become some what detachedfrom its Gospel roots. He diedon Feb. 7, 1878, venerated bymillions, rejected by millions,misunderstood by millions more.One day history may achieve amore balanced view of him.

Historians point out that formal definitions of dogma areusually responses to religious debates and questionings as wellas the result of cultural influences. The Council of Chalcedon,in the fourth century had definedthe divinity and humanity ofJesus; Trent in the 16th centuryaffirmed the real presence ofJesus in the Eucharist; VaticanI in the 19th century proclaimedpapal infallibility to stem thepossible crumbling of the international character of the church.
While an electric storm ragedoutside, 535 bishops approvedthe doctrine of infallibility onMarch 18, 1870, in the great hallof St. Peter's Basilica. It heralded unprecedented devotion to thepope and remarkably conservedthe universal character of thechurch.

All need to hear and believethat glorious proclomation of theSecond Vatican Council: "TheLord is the goal of human history, the focal point of the fongings of history and {:ivilization,the center of the human race; thejoy of every heart, and the answer to all yearnings."

It was his apparent willingness to compromise, to negotiate, which tipped the scales inhis favor in the papal election of1846. For a while his actionsseemed to substantiate thisjudgment, but it -became increasingly clear that Pius IXwould never allow constitutional government in the PapalStates.
His increasingly obvious political incompetence, coupled withan economic crisis, led to an uprising in which the papal primeminister was assassinated. Thepope had to flee but, with thehelp of a French army, was'ableto regain Rome. .

Why?Tell me why do people lie?
Written by Kenny Loggins and Eva Ein; Sung by Kenny Loggins(c) 1977, Milk Money Music
~enny Loggins is best known as part of the duo, Loggins andMessma, but is now singing on his own. This song is from his latestalbum, "Celebrate Me Home."
It relates the happenings of an unreciprocated love. Graduallythe singer discovers that the other person has been untrue to him.~e asks why people lie. Another way to state the question might be,How can another be careless with trust and personal vulnerability?"
The song is rich in content for comment. When we enter intoany type of love relationship, many possible roads for growth develop. Building a relationship does not happen quickly. Even thosewho "fall in love at first sight" eventually have to backtrack. Ourpersons are complex and need time and space to reveal themselvesto another. Real love commitment brings this time and space.
Our growth in relationships is like the growth we see in nature:We grow "in spurts." "
,The song stresses how responsible we should be toward ourrelationships. What we say and how we act toward another shouldreflect the type of commitment the relationship holds. Otherwise,actions and words can lead to misinterpretation, and even be seenas "lies" by another.
Further, the line, "In my eyes a revelation," also speaks clearlyof life experience. How well a person's YES reflect what is happening in their lives!! Our eyes cannot hide the joy, the pain, the fear,the confusion or the dreams happening in our lives.
At times, we try to hide these feelings from others, and some·times even from ourselves. Yet, loving another frees him or her tolet the inner light shine.
Perhaps this is the deeper message of the song, that even whenpeople feel that they have been cheated or lied to, we are called torekindle the spark of love's light. It can only be done with patienceand gentleness, belief in ourselves and the" God who gives healingeven in the experience of brokeness.

In an age when women weresold like hea:1s of cattle, when aman could divorce a woman forparting her hair the wrong way,how few men who called themselves Christian ever reallyheard or cared what Jesus said.And they were the ones whowere running things.
No wonder the men aroundJesus were astonished when theysaw how he treated women.
