Bishop John Wright of Pittsburgh
once wrote that we cannot escape the
fact that the Catholic Church is not a
democracy.
The authority of the Church does
not come from the community; it ome
from above, from Christ. The Church
is. if you will, totalitarian: it is totally
Christ. 1t does not belong to the people,
nor to the clergy. nor to anyone else.
1t belongs totally to Him with Whom it
is unified, Christ the Lord, the Son of
the Living God.
The powers of the apostles came
from Christ, and from Him flow through
them to the Church. Tertullian wrote
in the second century: THE Church
is from the apostles, the apostles from
Christ, Christ from God"
The apostles then did not act in
their own name, but as representatives
of Christ. They transmitted the auth
ority they had been given to others. and
these in turn passed it down to others,
and so on down through 1900 years,
The Holy Father and the bishops of the
Church today have authority based on
apostolic succession and represents a
service which is fulfilled only OF the
name of Christ and by His commission,

1t has been a trend in recent years
to chronicle the problems of teenagerS
III an atmosphere of s~entimentality and
downright misapplicatlon of the prin-
ciples of moral responsibility.
The usual story line, as we know,
is that the young person is a threat to
society not because he is bad but be-
cause his elders have failed him. And
then the finale shows us the older gen.
Grafton taking complete responsibility
for all the youngster has done.
This is not to say that parents,
teachers, and others do not share
some blame in the matter of teenage
problems-they do and very definitely.
But to go to the other extreme and pre-
sumo that the young person is practic-
ally without guilt is nonsense and a
denial of our rational makeup.
In view of this, it was refreshing
last week to view the Playhouse 80 pro-
duction "A Trip to Paradise" We had
the story of a young man whose father
had recently died and who had not vet
adjusted to facing up to life. His mother
had her w problems and did not
quite understand the son. Because of
his shy nature, he did not find much
help from his friends and schoolmates.

Sense From Playhouse 90

The crisis in the young mans life
came about when he got in with a VIC
ious, immoral group Of young people
who we're trying to shift the blame to
others for what they themselves had
done.
A man was beaten and robbed by
this gang and the hero Of the story
did not go to the police. Later when he
tried to tell the victim, he was met with
anger and bitterness, so he ran away
to join his wicked companions.
The climax Of the story came when
the police were searching for the young
MAJ and the victim declared he had
failed the boy. But a detective came
up with this sound observation; Sure, l
can show you murderers, rapists, and
robbers who have lost their parents or
omeon dear, and whose elders have
failed them. But | can also show you
many people who have suffered the
same loss and they didn't crack under
the strain. Everybody. sometime in life,
has to make up his mind to be a human
being and accept responsibility. Each
person must face this decision and only
he can make it.
We say Bravo to the author of "A
Trip to Paradise ."-CAE

TOtaIitarian Tradition

deriving its Importance exclusively
from the authority of Christ.
When the bishops of the Church
have spoken to us through the centu-
ries, it has been to teach not their own
doctrine, but the doctrine of Christ.
This doctrine was given to man through
the instrumentality of the apostles who
served as a bridge between Christ and
us.
A major part of the teachings of
the apostles was recorded in the New
Testament, while the ''other signs that
Jesus did" which are mentioned in this
Sundays Gospel, were handed down
by word Of mouth from the disciples of
Jesus. AS with the Bible these teach
ings have been preserved by the
Church, but in this case in the writings
of early Christian historians and COM
mentators, in the DEGREES of Church
Councils, in the decisions of the Popes,
and in the ceremonial of the Church.
Both Scripture and Tradition have
been given to us through the Church,
our infallible teacher, that we may be-
lieve that Jesus is the Christ. the Son
of God, and that believing we may have
life in his e."-CAF

temporary non-chrisiisns as
we find them. AS ! said, they
have made a mistake in the
way in which we talk about
Easter.
AT Christmas we emphasize
the human side of Christ, we
speak of the little infant in
the crib. At Easter however
we stress the divine. We
praise the divine power that
brought back Jesus to life
in a glorified body, and that
broke the prison walls of
the tomb in an astonishing
demonstration of miraculous
strength.
Yes. the Resurrection was
a victory for divinity but
we must remember that it
was also a triumph for human
ity. When Christ came TO
earth He took our humanity
and when He conquered death.
He was promising that as
He rose in His human and
divine nature, His brethren
would also rise in their
humanity.
The hUmsnist says that
Man must use His talents
for constructive purposes. for
soeisbility and sympathy. for
art and science. But why?
For the sake of soeiabiIity,
or for arts sake? The answer
is Easter.
Heaven is the incentive TO
improve the human situation
for we know that we will
rise to Heaven in our human
nature, and the degree of our
happiness will depend on the
diligence with which we have
developed here on earth the
talents God gave us.

REASON WHY
There is this middle period
of married life where couples
become so close. so intimate
that they often disagree. The
reason why is important. Is
il the way a wife drapes
herself when at the break
fast table? Is it because she
is so inefficient? Is il because
a husband does not see that
a wife must be taken out at
least once a week?
One has TO dig out the facts.
Maybe there is q question Of
nervous fatigue on the part OF
your wife. Maybe you are Just
frustrated and have lost your
own idealism. Maybe you have
lost your self-eonfidence.
Dig, dig, talk it over,
Systematically and intelligent
ly. Maybe your wife is worried
about the children, the bills,
your love, your appreciation
of her. Maybe she wants you

A. Without going into the
reasons behind such a regula-

that the general reason is that
fraternal help in the form Of
insurance was one of the orig
inal benefits of the society. It
is intended, then, not as an

his book as a synonym for ex-

of economic life. The word

Serfdom.
Dr.. Heyek's alternative TO
serfdom" is a return TO ec0no-
mic individualism, Professor
Clark. on the other hand, is
opposed to economic indivl-
dualism for philosophical as
we'll as practical reasons. In
fact, he can see no alternative
TO serfdom-Le., to excessive
governmental control of eco
nomic life-unless labor and
management and similar vol
untary agencies are permitted
and encouraged to solve most

shocker whose theme seems
to be that all human beings

with high ideals but who are
soon beaten down by their
uncomfortable impulses and
the unrelieved rottenness of
the world around them. Again,
the idea is that life has no
rhyme or reason and the
most charitable thing we can
say about the play is that
