It is dramatically visible among young people, where, as one perceptive advocate of youth has put it, a "drug sub-culture" has become as characteristic as the alcoholic equivalent is of their parents' generation. But the problem cannot be measured or understood merely in terms of youth delinquency and it cannot be solved merely by more rigorous enforcement of present laws. It invades our whole society; ·it plays a central part in organized crime and in the increase of per­ sonal violence in the streets; it increasingly infects our whole fabric of inter-personal relationships; it erodes the self-understanding and self-discipline on which a civilized society depends. Our concern-the concern of Christians-must, of course, in­ clude the social, legal, and medical aspects of the problem, but also go beyond them to the basic perspective of Christian faith. We must acknowledge at the outset that the growth of knowledge through research has made, and will continue to make, the discovery of new drugs inevitable, both blessing and cursing mankind. Drugs in fact, reveal man's glory and his tragedy-his ability to intrude his will into nature for good or evil, in obedience or disobedience. 1. Man's basic necessity, as he makes new discoveries, is rever­ ence-a profound respect for the laws of nature, which he did not make and from which he cannot escape. Thomas Huxley put it well: The chess-board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just and patient. But also we know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance. In other words, reverence for the given structure of things means awe, wonder, respect, ami fear. When we inject a drug, however innocent-seeming, into the body, effect will follow cause, and no good intentions, or ignorance, or tears, will change that result. And our caution and care should be the more increased when we remember that some effects may not be seen for years. 2. The seco~d principle which applies to drugs is responsibility, the teaching that the world, and our bodies and minds, are v vi given to us for a short time in trust, and that we are respon­ sible to our Maker for the use of them. To corrupt the body and mind is, therefore, not simply an offense against ourselves and those who love us and depend upon us; it is an offense against the God who gave us life. Our growing knowledge leads us to conclude that the dependence upon tobacco and alcohol must, in this regard be taken most seriously. 3. Since the work with those misusing some drug is a specialized field with its own knowledge and skills, we must exercise not only pastoral concern ourselves, but learn to support those rehabilitative agencies and groups dealing with the problem, working through others and growing in intelligence ourselves. Those who abuse drugs have often rejected the society in which we live; and since they will not come to us, speciaIly trained people must go to them. 4. If we understand, at the deepest level, the growth of the de­ pendence upon drugs, we can appreciate the hunger of the soul and the meaning of serious and profound religious dis­ ciplines. The abuse of drugs reveals, on the one hand, a posi­ tive desire for a new quality of life-for contentment, happi­ ness, a greater awareness, ecstasy, a sense of well-being and self-confidence. On the other hand, viewed negatively, the turning to drugs reveals a rebellion against a quality of life in our society which many find to be barren and oppressive. At the deepest level, we must understand the misuse of drugs as a rebellion against emptiness, futility, pessimism, anxiety, disappoint­ ment, insecurity, and a poor opinion of the self, whether in the ghetto or the affiuent suburb. It is not easy to be a man; and, in contrast to the animal world, men fight unseen battles in their own souls and have spiritual needs. Denied the peace, power, joy, and even ecstasy, that are given to the soul by communion with God and man, they will attempt to fill the void. It is interesting that in this, the first period in which people have cut themselves off from religion and socially acceptable mystical experiences, drug-taking has become a major prob­ lem ... It seems likely that many young people use LSD, mari­ juana, amphetamines-to fill the void 20th cenutry living leaves inside the mind.

  • 2.2 the MONARCHY Republican Sentiment Among New Zealand Voters, Highlighting the Social Variables of Age, Gender, Education
    2.2 THE MONARCHY Noel Cox and Raymond Miller A maturing sense of nationhood has caused some to question the continuing relevance of the monarchy in New Zealand. However, it was not until the then prime minister personally endorsed the idea of a republic in 1994 that the issue aroused any significant public interest or debate. Drawing on the campaign for a republic in Australia, Jim Bolger proposed a referendum in New Zealand and suggested that the turn of the century was an appropriate time symbolically for this country to break its remaining constitutional ties with Britain. Far from underestimating the difficulty of his task, he readily conceded that 'I have picked no sentiment in New Zealand that New Zealanders would want to declare themselves a republic'. 1 This view was reinforced by national survey and public opinion poll data, all of which showed strong public support for the monarchy. Nor has the restrained advocacy for a republic from Helen Clark, prime minister from 1999, done much to change this. Public sentiment notwithstanding, a number of commentators have speculated that a New Zealand republic is inevitable and that any move in that direction by Australia would have a dramatic influence on public opinion in New Zealand. Australia's decision in a national referendum in 1999 to retain the monarchy raises the question of what effect, if any, that decision had on opinion on this side of the Tasman. In this chapter we will discuss the nature of the monarchy in New Zealand, focusing on the changing role and influence of the Queen's representative, the governor-general, together with an examination of some of the factors that might have an influence on New Zealand becoming a republic.

As we spoke with members of the diocese in their parishes, we heard their sense of optimism and hope. As we prayed together as a committee and studied the responses to our surveys, the way forward has become clearer to us and, we hope, to those of you who may discern a call to respond. We hope that this profile gives you a snapshot of our Vibrant Episcopal Communities United in Christ and the wonderful region of the country in which we live and work. The Search/Nominating Committee will receive names from August 15 to September 30, 2011. Instructions for submitting names may be found at the end of this profile.
