Catholic Archdiocese of Miami Vol. XXX No. 39 November 19, 1982 Price 25C Bishops defend N-stand WASHINGTON (NC) — Members of a committee of the National Con- ference of Catholic Bishops that is drafting a pastoral letter concerning the use of nuclear weapons defended the bishops' competence to address that issue. "Our competence is in the area of moral teaching," said Auxiliary Bishop Thomas J. Gumbleton of Detroit, one of the committee members, at a news conference on Nov. 15, the first day of the annual fall meeting of the bishops' con- ference in Washington. "We don't pretend to have extra- ordinary competence in strategic or military matters,'" Bishop Gumbleton said, noting, however, that the com- mittee did consult specialists in those areas. "We believe we are competent to make moral judgments," he said. Another committee member, Bishop Daniel P. Reilly of Norwich, Conn., noted that critics of the draft pastoral letter "sometimes say 'You don't know what you're talking about' " and that the same criticism is sometimes voiced about bishops teaching in the area of marriage and. the family. "WHO ARE the experts who can THANKSGIVING DAZE talk to us in this area?" Bishop Reilly Little Reina Marina takes time out from making Thanksgiving decorations to have a good yawn. asked.

Bishops' commission calls Britain's treatment of prisoners unjust LONDON (NC) — The Social Welfare Commission of the Bishops' Con- ference of England and Wales has called Britain's treatment of criminals basically un-Christian. Punishment must always be just, reasonable and reasonably effec- tive, said the commission in a report titled "A Time for Justice," released Nov. 11. The report stated that "present sentencing practice in this country cannot command the support of the Christian conscience . . . the vast majority of those imprisoned are non-violent offenders . . . Who are more of a nuisance than a threat." The commission asked church leaders to press for an end to prison over- crowding and to help remedy social and environmental factors which predispose people to comitting crimes. It also called for greater concern among Catholics for the prison ministry.

In another program at the congress, Archbishop Thomas C. Kelly of Louisville held an "Ask Your Archbishop" workshop, where he fielded questions on everything from women's ordination to R-rated movies. One girl asked the archbishop why he doesn't use female servers at Mass. The reason I don't get female servers is that the pope won't allow it," he replied. "Eventually, I hope we get around to straightening it out." (Use of women servers at Mass is not allowed under canon law.) Discussing women's ordination, he said that "my view is that the church has got to reflect seriously on the question." The church law forbidding ordination of women "can be changed," he said, but added that "I dont see it happening right away." Another girl asked the archbishop's opinion about teen-agers attending R-rated (restricted) movies. Archbishop Kelly replied: "I guess anything that's rated R is probably bad enough that you ought to avoid it, that you owe it to your own development to keep away from stuff like that." Another teen was curious if Archbishop Kelly had any chance of becom- ing pope. "No, I don't have any chance at all," he replied.

Miami, Florida / THE VOICE / Friday, November 19, 1982 / PAGE 11 Conserv 'The committee recognizes the delicacy of the WASHINGTON (NC) — deterrence issue.' Congressman Henry Hyde (R-Ill.), and other speakers at a news con- ference sponsored by conservative Catholic groups, said Nov.

Hyde "pleaded" with the bishops Archbishop calls to "leave room for Catholics who believe in a strong, credible deterrent." The press conference, sponsored by the Catholic Center for Renewal and nuclear strategy the Committee for Concerned Catholics, was held at the Hay- Adams Hotel, two blocks from the Capital Hilton where the U.S. bishops began their annual meeting in 'new' moral issue Washington.

Miami, Florida / THE VOICE / Friday, November 19, 1982 / PAGE 13 Bigotry for dollars in greeting cards What more appropriate time to spread bigotry than Christmas? And when you can make a profit doing it, all the better. That apparently is the view of a Manhattan outfit called Nunsense. Thanks to Nunsense, if you are really hip you can send a greeting card that attempts to make the sisters look ridiculous. There is a whole selection to choose from. On the front of each card is a picture of a nun (actually someone simulating a

EDITORIAL "" nun) in some sort of ridiculous pose, with a supposedly hilarious caption inside the card. One example shows a "Sister Cardella {card-e\\a, get it?) sniffing coke, eyes closed, mouth gaping open, with the cap- tion, "I'm in heaven." The tradeware magazine Giftware News gave the card line a glowing plug: "Sister Mary Cardella is the subject of one of the funniest lines of greeting cards to be seen in a long time. Each card shows the 'nun' in a rather unconventional situation and has funny, appropriate wording." Such "humor" as this can only appeal to people who are already predisposed to anti-Catholicism and who are com- pletely insensitive to the feelings not only of the sisters but of their friends and families. It is especially galling in a time of limited vocations to see such disrespect toward the sisters and, by association, priests and brothers. No wonder people are flocking to see anti-Catholic plays such as "Sister Mary Ignatius" and others. The Catholic League protested to the company pointing out that if they were profiting through racism or sexism, "then it might occur to you how depraved and repugnant your business really is." But most Catholics either look the other way or even chuckle along with everyone else. And that's why bigots and exploiters continue to target Catholics. We don't fight back.
