Wide Vision

With our vision Widened still more this year by
the beginning of the conquest of space our frame of
reference for the Indian and Negro Missions appeal
should at least be a little larger this year.
OUR EFFORT o THE conversion of these our
brothers in Christ should be measured in comparison
with the missions in central Africa. There the number
of Catholics approaches 20 per cent; here, little more
than two per cent of the Negro population.
Similarly, in Latin America those of Indian an
cestory are nearly all Catholic, even if not instructed
adequately, a far better record than in our fifty states.
IF WE CAN BE TEN TIMES more successful in
Africa than here there must be reasons. Some reasons
may be mysteries of grace, but some might be that we
have not had great fervor in showing each individual
OF that race the true Christian spirit. Sometimes sue
cesful mission work is not so much a matter of funds
as of personal concern, or charity.
TO PUT 1T IN a DIFFERENT WAY, the term
catholic we have always known to mean that the
Church is for all mankind. But we've not always grasp
ed that we who bear that name are also for all man.
kind That name dedicates us to be as Christ, con-
cerned with the souls of all.
May this Indian and Negro Missions appeal be
received in this spirit and so include a personal show
of Christlike concern to members of all minority
groups.

EDITORIALS
Lessons In Space

We are indebted to the writer of the lead editorial
in the February 25th New York Times and Mr.. James
Reston in the same issue for stating so well the lesson
to be learned from the space flight of Col. John Glenn.
THE EDITORIAL POINTED out that the flight
proved that man is the master of the machine, not the
other way round, and that within the limits of the
natural law we can control or destroy the world in
which we live.
Reston applauded the way Americans have taken
the astronauts to heart as heroes and models of human
character and recalled that nations destinies often
that courage, modesty, quiet patriotism, love of
family and religious faith are not exactly the pre-
dominant themes Of our novels, plays, TV shows,
movies or newspapers these days. Yet Glenn drama
tized them all coast to coast and around the world"
WE TOO WOULD HOPE that such qualities are
in style again in our country. And not only as virtues
to be admired in the few space pioneers, but in all
Americans.
The lesson for us all is that achievements are in
dividual in one sense, but communal in another; that
each man should profit from the experience of earlier
generations and that he needs the help of God if he
is to be of true service TO mankind.
WE SHOULD LEARN too that no one can master
the elements of nature unless he first learns mastery
over himself.
EVERYTHING THEN THAT we do should be
ordered to the glory of God and the good of others. A
man becomes worthy of his rational dignity when he
serves those two purposes.
Reston says Outer space is a long way to go to
discover a new generation of leaders of men, but if
we have to recruit them there, why not?'
WE AGREE THAT 1T is worth it and that God
intends man to learn more about the universe in order
to learn more about the Creator of that universe. We
hope this lesson will be applied more and more in the
months and years to come. - CAF

When equal justice is
suggested for all taxpay-
ers in support, through

schools, the usual negative
replies are as follows: Why
should | pay for support Of a
school whose church | don't
believe in? If your conscience
commands you to send your
children to a UNCONVENTIONAL
school does it not also COM
mand you TO support your
church? If so, would you ask
your government to pay for
your church? If not, why
should it pay for the school
operated by the church?
The logical fallacy in these
questions is apparent. Attend
ing and supporting his church
is a matter between man and
his God. Sending all children
TO school is a command Of
the state. If the state compels
children to attend school and
pays for education Of some,
why should it not pay for the
education of all?

scarcely any situations where
such a decision must be made.

Provocative Student

Professor Will Her
berg, the Jewish scholar
may or may not be the
most profound student of
the sociology of religion
in the United States, but sure

vocative.
Herberg deservedly enjoys
the reputation of being able
to see the forest for the trees.
The trees in this case are a
constantly growing mass of
statistical material about or
ganized religion in the Unit
ed States. He is also able to
discern more precisely than
most of his contemporaries
the development of new prob
lens and new trends in the
sociology of religion.

Sum and Substance:
Anticlericalism
Or Anti-Enthusiasm?
by Fir. John B. Sheerin, esp.

Is anticlericalism on the
rise among the laity? Re-
Gently | met a European
priest who claimed he
could discern in America
the beginnings of that hate of
the clergy that scourged the
Church in Europe.
Some months ago l dis
cussed this same question
with two noted Catholic lay
men. One said he felt that
anticlericaliSm was fast gath
ering momentum in American
Catholic life; the other said
the real danger was a grow
ing religious Indifference, a
trend among the laity to re-
main inert and let the clergy
carry on.
THIS LATTER is, l believe,
the genuine danger: Anticler-
icalism arose in Europe be-
cause the laity judged the
clergy to be the bulwark of
the corrupt political system
they wanted to destroy. Here
the clerical ties with political
bosses, understandable in the
days of an immigrant church,
are almost extinct.
My own experience may
not be typical, but | find no
real anticlerical venom ex-
cept among Catholic college
students. Yet even in my
das at a Catholic college it
was always open season on
the faculty.

The real danger as | see it
is that the laity may become
Indifferent to religion because
they consider it dull. And in
this most exciting era Of hui
man history, dizziness is the
unpardonable sin. AS a matter
of fact, a dash of anticler-
ical spice might make life in
the Church in America a bit
more exciting.
BUT THE SAME complaint
of dizziness is being heard
in the Protestant churches.
Last October, a layman named
Irwin Miller, the new head
of the National Council of
Churches in the United States,
said he had encountered a
heavy dullness in the Prot
eStant Church in his travels
around the country.
He discovered, moreover,
that perceptive, creative and
highly intelligent persons us
ually found little S~atisfac-
ton or stimulation in the
church. eff they give the
Church any recognition, it is
token only, and in few cases
can it be said that they find
in today's church their source
of excitement, a goad to their
c%reativity, or that profound

HUMAN DESIRE is expressed in words in the bull
sessions students have on the floor over beer and cof-
fee all night long working out a better world; in the
scream a young mother makes as she sees a danger
coming toward her child; in the turn of the palm when
the dying reach out for a last amounting.
Gods desire is in His own eternal Self, expressed
and Self fulfilled in His own Word. We know His act in
making us, His love poured out in redeeming us. He
tries to make us holy. He knows His own great plan.
In the practical details of living there's a prayer
that works. Deliver up to God Fundamentally all that
lie gives us and beg Him to absorb us in His plan, His
prayer, His loving action.

the changing nature of the
social problem in the United
States and on the consequent
need for a new approach to
the social problem on the
part of organized religion.
WRITING AS ONE who in
his salad days was a con-
WINGED Marxist but has long
since abandoned every vestige
of the Marxist philosophy,
Herberg says that nowhere
has his mind changed more
drastically in the past decade
than in his conviction as to
what constitutes the social
problem of today.
He used to think that "the
social problem" meant the
economic problem or even
more narrowly the labor
problem" 1t took him a long
time to realize, he says, that
this notion is no longer valid,
at least not for the United
States, Britain and the Scandi-
navian countries.
Granted, he continues, that
economic and labor problems
are still with us and perhaps
will always be, nevertheless
he contends that "the crucial
social problem of today would
seem to be no longer how to
achieve a larger measure of
social justice in q competitive
system, but rather how to
achieve a greater degree of
personal authenticity amid
