BY KEITH COFFMAN
Physician-assisted suicide is contrary to the Judeo-Christian ethic and should be opposed as a matter of public policy, according to members of the Rocky Mountain Inter^th Alliance. The alliance was formed two years ago to “edu cate the public, and to challenge the growing accep tance of this trend,” explained Mimi Eckstein, direc tor of the Respect Life OfiRce for the Archdiocese of Denver. The alliance sponsored the Archbishop’s Sympo sium on physician-assisted suicide at Regis Univer sity in March. “No matter what the reasons may be, we have to be very clear that we don’t have the right to take an other Ufe,” Eckstein said. Orthodox priest Father Paul von Lobkowitz, who ministers to residents at the Hospice of St. John in Lakewood, said “euthanasia and suicide are morally wrong and interrupt a reconciliation with God. “Hospices provide a period of healing before death,” he continued. “To deny this for people is cheat ing them. Pope John used to call it ‘packing your bags’ — the sanctity of life is in God’s hands, not ours.” Rose Marie Falk, coordinator of the parish nurse program at St. Anthony Hospital, agreed that “dying is a process; and people need to know what the alter natives [to physician-assisted suicide] are.” “That is one of the most important aspects of ORDAINED to the transitional diaconate by Archbishop J.

ARCHBISHOP’S COLUMN A source book of the tru th .4 BY (MOST REV.) J. FRANCIS STAFFORD
I have a simple re quest. I ask every Catholic family in this archdiocese to own at least two books. The first, of course, is the Bible. Nothing is more important than the word of God, and read ing Scripture daily is tile surest way to know that “God is love.” But there’s another book, due to be pub lished June 22, that also belongs in eveiy home. Let me explain. Catholics are a be lieving community. The truths we hold in common are the threads that weave us together as a people. That’s why doctrine matters. It helps define us. That’s why we study it, revere it and discuss it. What we believe is not just a group of abstract ideas. It’s the most precious gift we can hand on to our children: the key to knowing God in this world and being happy with Him in the next. That’s what makes 1994 such an exciting, posi tive moment for the Church. Next month the Holy See, through the bishops’ conference in the United States will issue the English language edition of the new “Catechism of the Catholic Church” in this country. While it arrives two years after the origi nal French edition, it is well worth the wait. The text is the first “major catechism,” or com plete compendium of our Catholic faith, in 400 years, beautifully updating and reaffirming what we believe in light of the Second Vatican Council. First proposed at the 1985 Extraordinary Synod of the world’s bishops, it was compiled in consulta tion with bishops fi'om around the globe. And it is not merely thorough. While it is addressed officially to bishops, it’s designed, written and edited in a way that makes it an ideal tool for the average adult Catholic. You don't need to be a theologian or a pastoral minister to draw nourishment firom its pages. Y>u wont need to hire a sdiolar to tell you what it re ally means. Tliis catechism is for any adult who’s hungry for the truth. It is my hope that every parish of the archdio cese will make this new catechism available to its WORKERS dismantle the organ at the Cathedral o f the Immaculate Conception.

He discussed the 1994 legislative session with On the education side. House Bill 1097, which al Register reporter Keith Coffman. lows students in non-public schools to participate in extra-curricular activities at public schools within their district, is before the governor. I think the argu ment was persuasive that the parents of children in non-public schools are paying taxes and should be able to take advantage of programs that may not be of fered at their school. However, it must be signed into law before it takes effect. Speaking of education, a bill to offer tax de duction to parents of non-public school students failed. What happened in that instance? D elaney: That was a disappointment, to be sure. Timing is everything in politics, and the legislators just didn’t feel it was viable this year, much like the resolution we supported aDowing easier prosecution for pomographers that was lost in the Senate Judi ciary Committee. In an election year, legislators are pretty cautious on controversial issues. You could see that in several unresolved gun control/access mea sures. A s y o u say, th is is a n e le c tio n year.

Delaney: The most significant bill was the at tempt to offer prisoners time off of their sentences if they agreed to undergo a sterilization procedure. The bishops were adamant in their opposition to this, and the conference played a major role in amending and ultimately defeating this proposal. Another issue we successfuUy opposed was a pro posed law that would expand the Patient Autonomy Act to allow the government to intervene in life-end ing health care decisions for people who have no im mediate family. We also opposed several punitive welfare reform bills that seem to crop up every year. It iseems that spiking le^slation is as impor tant as getting legislation passed. Delaney: It is, but getting a measure through the process entails a lot of legwork also. After a bill is introduced and assigned to a committee, it has to get the votes to move out of committee to the full Senate or House. Then it has to pass through both bodies twice before it goes to the governor. But along the way, it can be sunended or gutted, so monitoring a bill every step of the way is crucial.
