INQUIRY
Is it wrOng TO listen
TO mont Catholic sermons?

@. Is it wrong TO listen to nom
Catholic sermons, etc, on the radio
or to watch them on televisiOn?
A. Yes. If it is truly an act of
worship it represents a departure
from Catholic doctrine and practice.
While the sermon may be we'll pre-
pared and even edifying there is dam
ger of being influenced toward reli-
gious indifferentism.
There are, however, religious pro-
grams which are not strictly denomi-
national, or at least, they qualify as
tnspirational rather than doctrinal
(e.g. dramatic episodes illustrating
Christian ideals). There would seem
to be no difficulty in listening to or
watching such programs. Also it
would seem to be permissible to listen
one time or another to some outstand-
ing figure leg. Billy Graham).
We do not question the sincerity
or integrity of the sponsors of non
Catholic religious programs, but the
Catholic religion is based on the con-
Viction that there is only one true
Church.
Constant listening to ministers
of other religions could Tin some
cases) lead to confusion and to an
attitude of indifference to the real ma
ture of the Church. There are many
good Catholic programs, usually list
ed in the Catholic Times.

ARBP. LORENZ JAEGER

The radical change in
social conditions, due to the
advance of science and the
raising of material standards,
has given rise to new pro-
blems on various levels. There
is too an urgent need to up
hold the religious and ethical
principles of private, family
and public life, which many
are misguided enough to de-
spise as relics of medievalism
or else ignore in practice.
IN THIS MATTER an ecu
menical council can power
fully contribute to a moral
revival among the people.
That was why, 20 years ago,
Cardinal Ruffini, Archbishop
of Palermo, urged Plus XII
to summon an ecumenical
council, pointing out that it
would have as many pressing
problems to deal with as the
Council of Trent.
The Council of Trent, as
Is well known, was a reform
ing council; and the future
Council too will aim at re-
form and the renewal of
Christian life, as Pope John
XIII has often repeated. On
April 6, 1859, he expressed
the hope that it would renew
the power of the apostolate
and prove to the world that

HI CHURCH I'M C"HRISTENDOM

for needs Of a changing world

the Christian people" Men
today are no worse than
those of previous gener-
ations, but they are exposed
to greater dangers. No
doubt, in earlier times = the
Renaissance, for example =
there was a decline in
Christian moral conduct and
gross corruption in public
life; but this was confined to
a small circle and did not
affect the people at large.
Today, however, immoral
principles and practices are
brought to attention of all
through radio, cinema, tele-
vision, newspapers, and no
one is immune. These media
OF mass influence raise new
pastoral problems, for they
can be put to good use, and
in fact, often are. There is a
picture of Durer's Knight,
Death and Devil" which
shows a man passing tri-
umphantly through all the
dangers of this world. But
today the destructive powers
of darkness have SO many
features and shapes, they
Turk in so many points of
vantage, that it has become
inordinately difficult for
anyone, however prepared,
to avoid contamination and
defilement.
The sense of purity and up
rightness in both private
and public life needs to be
stirred up anew. Once the
rising generation acknoW-
lodges purity of morals in
the spirit of faith as a posi-
tive value, the signs of de-
cadence we see around us,
the fruit of a philosophy
based solely on the passions,
will disappear more quickly
than we might now imagine.
The Council will initiate a
new springtime of Christian
living with its source in the
teachings of faith, and re-
kindle among men the love
of Christ. The Spirit of God
is still mighty enough today
to renew the face of the
earth.
THOSE WHO speak about
the reform of morals must
never forget that it can only
come from the spirit of the
Gospel, from faith in the Re-
deemer crucified and risen.
In taking account of the
changes around us, we must
never asSimilate ourselves to

@. What is a persons name day?
Feast day?
A. For most of us they would be
the same thing. A religious who takes
a patron saint upon entering a reli-
gious community would have the feast
day of that saint.
A persons name day is the estab-
lished feast of the saint after whom
he is named. 1t is an ancient and
recommended Christian custom to
celebrate a persons name day. Every
family should celebrate such days for
each member and use the occasion to
tell the children about their patron
saint.
@. With all our talk about the
Immaculate Conception do we not ex-
aggerate the Importance of virginity
and belittle marriage?
A. Not in the least. The Immacu-
late Conception means that Mary was
free from sin (original SIM from the
moment of her conception. AS far as
we know she was born to her parents
Joachim and Anne) as any other
child. The doctrine in question seems
to be the Virgin Birth.
This means that we believe that
the Blessed Virgin Mary vas a virgin
before and after the birth of Christ.
1t was a miraculous sign of Gods
special providence for the coming of
the Son of God to earth: "And the

heads the list. This is a book
to be re-read by fans of Mon
signor Benson and one to
make some new readers for a
priest-writer far ahead of his
time.
Speaking of ~priest-writers,
the late DAME. A. Lord, 81,
had a large following in the
field of popular spirituality.

Lords approach but he had
a wide audience and was es-
pecialIy appealing to young

those who ordinarily find

Election on marriage to say that a soul
dedicated to God completely (as only
Mary was) was most appropriate as
instrument of the Incarnation.
Christ could have been conceived
and born as other children are, but it
seems obvious that it is appropriate
to derive Christ's human life from
the Blessed Virgin in an unique and
spiritual way.
@. Is a child named AngleO or
Angelica named after the angels?
A. Yes. There are, however, saints
of that name. st. Angelus was a Fran
cisan martyr of the thirteenth century
(feast October 13). Blessed Angela
of Foligno Oath century Franciscan
visionary whose feast is January ~
and st. Angela Merici (16th century
founder of the Ursuline Nuns, whose
feast is May 81 are sources for such
a name.
From earliest time honor was
paid to all the angels in connection
with the feast of st. Michael on Sep

the Guardian Angels on October 2.

and the nature of the uni
-versal Church.
The law of the Church, her
methods of evangeliZation
and ecclesiastical usages in
the missions, must be brought.
into line with the changed
environment, and this sac
commodation'' must be care
fully thought out. A general
council affords the best pos
sible scope for solving all
these problems.
AS happened 400 years
ago, the coming Council will
effect a real reform in the
Church, an intensified spirit
of faith, a fresh Towering
of the Christian life, a re-
newal of pastoral activity,
and legislation appropriate
TO the present situation.
Mankind has achieved won
derful results by relying on
its own abilities in solving
the problems of the present
world.
This need not have led
men away from God; for it
is God, in His almighty
power and wisdom, who
created the natural order and
laws man has made subser-
Went to his needs. God Him
self had inserted His plan
and ordinances into creation
in the form of natural laws:
and He continuously sustains
this order.
MAN DOES NOT make the
natural order, but only dis
covers it SO as to use
it for his purposes. All
he can ever do is to
follow gropingly the steps of
divine wisdom and assent to
Gods preordained laws. Only
in the service of the Creator
can he fulfill the biblical in
junction to rule the earth.
Our own scientific and tech
biological age could, on these
lines, have led to a natural
knowledge of God of increas-
ing range and depth.
Instead of this, the wealth
of discoveries, such as atomic
power, and scientific achieve
ments like the DRIFTING of
satellites, have served to in
toxicate men and induce a
kind of blindness to God. In
discovering Gods laws of
nature and applying them,
they act as if they them
selves had made these laws
and had no use for God they
are misled about their own
nature, the meaning of life,
and lose all certainty. The
power they have won has be-
come a menace to all life
on earth.

A good
series for
the Layman

Recent lay interest in the
Bible has led to a great num-
Der of books in that area not
only on a scholarly level
for the expert but for the
general reader as well.
The Paulist Fathers have
published a series of book
lets selling for very little
which takes a book of the
Bible, presents a translation
of it, and includes a COM
mentary by a top scholar in
Biblical studies. The great
advantage of their Pamphlet
Bible Series, Of which there
are SO booklets, is that the
reader has text and COM
mentary in one handy vol
ume.
ONE OF THE most recent
is "The Book Of Wisdom
(50c) by Father Eugene H.
Maly.
Father Maly is well known
in Biblical circles as a schol-
ar. He is known more closely
by many priests of the Co
lumbus Diocese who studied
Scripture under his direction
at Mount St. Mary of the
West Seminary in Norwood
since 1850, with time out TO
do specialized work in his
field.
We would commend this
series to the layman who
wants to know the Bible for
what it is. 1t is especially

But the present situation
