Catholics and Jews

Pope Plus Xl once wrote: abraham is called our
patriarch and ancestor. Anti-Semitism is not compat-
lble with the sublime reality of this text. 1t is a move
ment in which Catholics cannot participate. We are
spiritually Semites.'
THIS IS A FoRcEFUL statement that prejudice
against the Jewish people or anyone else for that
matter, is alien TO Catholic teaching. In 1923 the Church
condemned the hatred directed against people once
chosen by God"
Catholic teaching emphasizes the dignity of every
human person, honors the historic and religious role
OF the Jewish people, and acknowledges our debt to
the Judaic heritage.
ALL THE HATRED and oppression visited upon
the Jews by the NaZis and Communists might appear
as the latest chapter in their history as victims of the
Gentle. Some might feel Jews are constantly fated
Tor Martyrdom of one kind or another.
Lest we get a distorted view of history Rabbi
Harold Nj. SchulweiS, in a recent article in the
National Jewish Monthly, reminded his brethren that
that they must not forget that many, many Gentiles
sacrificed, even to death, to save Jews from death
and Imprisonment in World War ii. He asks them TO
tell their children the whole truth: that much evil was
done to the Jewish people, but much good as well.
IN IT'S JANUARY 10 ISSUE, The commonwesI
quotes the Rabbi and adds that his words NAV be di-
rected to Christians as we'll. The Catholic review says:
We must tell our children of the depths of viciousnesS
and sinfulneSs into which any and all of us may fall"
But also we must tell them that in the world
there is kindness and charity bravery and love
TO heal men, " as the Rabbi insists.
WE THINK H POINT is well taken. Sometimes
in our condemnation of an evil we show only the dark
side of the moon and neglect to look at the bright
SIDE as well. In making adjustment on the record of
past history, we should always give, as commonweaI
says, "the truth, neither more nor less than the
truth" -GAF.

Yesterday we began the Chair of Unity Octave to
pray that God may bless the cause of religious unity
among the peoples of the world.
Last year Cardinal Augustin Bea, S. J., chairman
of the Vatican Councils Secretariat for Promoting
Christian Unity, wrote an article in the magazine
civiIfs cattoliea which gives some excellent points
for our consideration.
He WROTE THAT OUR Holy Father in calling
for the Second Vatican Council gave a distinctly
"unionistic' goal to the Council and invited the whole
Church to colaborate in a collective effort of Santifi-
cation for its preparation.
The Cardinal pointed out that the Council will
not solve any of the large questions that separate
Christians, but will establish more frequent contacts
with those of other faiths. With this as a common
ground for discussion we can in charity and sincerity
build on the accomplishments of the last so years and
will "be able to achieve, with slow hard work, a grad
ual drawing closer of mentalities, the elimination of
preludlceS, the thorough knowledge of faith and char
iy and ever closer collaboration in fields not connect
ed directly with faith
THIS TASK, HE SAID, requires of Catholic peo-
pie "a solid preparation in knowledge of their faith,
clarity of ideas, sound adherence to the faith, and
above all the sanctity consisting of humility, charity.
prayer, sacrifice and an exemplary Catholic life"
The demands made upon US by the Cardinal are
formidable ones. 1t is true not everyone will contrib
ute equally, nor need they do so, but all of us must
show charity and understanding toward those of other
religious backgrounds.
MORE IMPORTANT. and more p~roximateIy, pray
er is the means of collaboration for all the faithful.
We can do this most effectively during the Chair Of
Unity Octave.
In addition, we can keep this intention in our
minds when people unite with the priest at every Mass
to say Let us offer these gifts for the holy Catholic
Church, that Thou may deign to unite her
throughout the whole world" Lord, regard not nv
sins, but the faith of Thy Church; deign to give her
peace and unite her according to Thy will"-cAF

debate between liberals and
conservatives"
The right wing extremists,
in Father Germans opinion,
are not true conservatives.
The true conservatives, he
contends, have much to offer
and should be given every OPP
portunity to express their
point of view. Ditto for the
true liberals. "Instead of
less" he says, "vc should
have more debate among
them"
ON THE OTHER HAND, he
says that it would be difficult
to call off the debate with the
extreme right wingers. There
just hasn't been any debate
with these people, he con-
tends, and there isn't going
to be. You can't debate with
people, he says, who are COM
pletely s~elf-assured and never
suffer a doubt and one of
whose chief occupations is
writing abusive letters in
which they accuse those who
disagree with them of being
communists or comm u
sympathizers.
My own experience leads
me to think that Father Cor
man is correct. Most of the
letters / have received in re-
cent months from right wing
extremists clearly start from
the assumption that they and
they alone have the answer
to the communist menace and

Father Ralph German,
C.P., editor of The Sign

congratulated very sim

Father German was one of
the first editors in the United
States to call the turn on the

started after them several
years age, and to judge from
the tone of the lead editorial
in the current issue of The
Sign he is not about to call it
quits. His current editorial
will cost him dearly in terms
of subscriptions and personal
abuse. No matter. He is a man
of his convictions, and he
isn't easily frightened. More
power to him.
FATHER CoRMAN'S cur
rent editorial is a friendly re-
ioinder to those Catholic edi-
tors and journalists who con-
tend that the time has come
to call a halt to the debate
beween liberals and conserva-
tives. "Some Think" he says,

so bitter as to threaten unity

Certainly not. Pope John, be-

IDENTIFY about the possibility of
reunion.
The focus Of resistance to
reunion efforts among the Or
thodox seems to be the lower
clergy. They are not top-level
theologians but they are
staunch defenders Of the
Faith, oftentime more
stuanch than prudent.
THEY HAVE BEEN in the
vanguard of the centuries-old
fight against Moslem influ-
ence. The trouble is that, not
being theologians, they tend
to identify the Christian Faith
with certain traditional Gus
toms, practices and protocol.
They are ready to do battle
not only with Moslems but
with any Latin who dares to
transgress ever so slightly
Orthodox privileges in the
holy places.
There is no denying the
fact that some Orthodox cler-
gy are belligerently anti-Lat-
in. From an ecumenical view
point. our task as Latins is to
try to understand their psy-
chology. Their umbrage origin
ated in certain theological
quarrels between Orthodox
and Catholics in the past but
the theological hostility was
aggravated by incidents of a
political or cultural nature.

to make them miserable in
doing their duty. He puts on
the old broken records of the
past and the future and gets
them so worked up about
areas in which they have
neither competency nor re-
sponsihility that they ignore
the present moment and its
potential of happiness.
Science fiction writers keep
dreaming about a time ma.
chine which would enable a
man to go back into history
or forward into the future.
Until such an impossible
dream becomes a reality the
only thing anyone can do any
thing with is the present. In
fact, it is the only thing for
which he will be held re-
sponsible by God.

Their it means putting into
practice the advice of st. Au-
gustine = Leave the past to
the mercy of God, the future
to His providence and conse-
crate the present to His love.
It relieves the poor guy OF
the feeling that he is taking
on the combined strengths
and talents of the Green Bay
Packers and the New York
Giants. It gives him the feel
ing that he can ''red-dog" the
job of the moment to his
hearts content.
All this sounds too simple
but God meant life to be sim
pie. It is we who make it COM
plicated. They say of a drug
addict that he has a monkey
on his back and the monkey
gets bigger and stronger the
more it is fed.
BUT EVERYONE HAS a
monkey of one size or an
other. The couple who keep
feeding their pet the tidbits
of the past or the snacks Of
the future soon find they
have a monster on their
hands who gives them no
peace.
In the daily life of every
couple there should be devo-
ton to the Holy Spirit. The

care of the past and the fu-
ture. The Spirit will guide

The devil is a person
with a couple of good
tricks in dealing with peo-
pie. He can lead them into
sin and thus destroy their
love relationship with
God.
If they get wise to that, as
they do, and are more attract
ed to God, Satan works a
more subtle deal. He destroys
their peace of mind, so that
they who should be giving
glory to God in the peace of
their own lives are going
around with a harried, taut
and nervous look no differ

you; not as the world gives
