Boulovaivl IDoiiuaries The Denver Catholic Register — Wed., January 13,1988 — Page 5 Jesuits study stars College campus is their observatory TUCSON, Ariz. (NC)--Ministry in the scientific world, black holes and speculation about the Christmas star merit priestly interest at the Jesuit-staffed Vatican Obser­ vatory. The observatory’s main home is at Castel Gandolfo, site of the papal residence near Rome, but the Vatican ast­ ronomers call Steward Observatory on the University of . X ' Arizona campus in Tucson their second residence. There, three Jesuits work as full-time astronomers, a ministry they say allows them to be dedicated to both science and the Church. One of the astronomers, who concentrates on studying t : star spectrums, considers himself a pastor of sorts in the world of astronomy. “ My ministry is to do this work as pastor,” said Father Chris Corbally. “ My parish is the world of astronomy and \ the world of science.” V The purpose of the Vatican Observatory, Father Corbally said, “ is to do science and to do good science. The other . mission is to be that contact in the science (community) for the Church.” Another observatory staff member. Father Bill Stoeger, said that while the Vatican astronomers may consider relationships among science, philosophy and the­ ology, “ that's not the main focus of our work but rather an N> important byproduct. We couldn’t justify the observatory by just doing that, ” he said. “ We must be also deeply involved in a bona fide area of science.” \ h H b Black holes Father Stoeger studies such things as black holes — hypothetical bodies in space, believed to be invisible col­ lapsed stars, so condens^ that neither light nor matter can escape from their gravitational fields. He said that before scientists and theologians can begin talking there must be “ mutual understanding” of terms. “ When a theologian talks about creation and a scientist talks about creation they can mean very different things. Strict science can’t really talk about creation in the radical sense the theologian can,” he said. “ The scientist has to have something which is not God...before he can begin his studies,” but the theologian has nothing to begin with but God, Father Stoeger added. He said that “ creative tension” can exist between Church and science, but where conflict occurs it is often the result of misinterpretations. One example is the fundamentalist interpretation of j " Scripture that holds the earth is only about 4,(K)0 years old when science reveals it is some 12 billion to 20 billion years old. Father Stoeger explained. .• -., If- But science may provide insight for looking at some biblical accounts — such as the story of the Christmas star. P attern s Father Stoeger noted that astronomers can trace the patterns of the stars, planets, sun and moon back to the time of the Magi; the wise men who, Matthew’s gospel reports, saw the star and journeyed to worship the newborn Christ. “ By what we know now we can run the system backward in time; we can do that accurately,” he said. “ One of the Father Stoeger said that the Christmas star might not may have been a more subtle light than what the story difficulties is we’re not sure of the exact time of Christ’s have been so prominent to anyone who was not accustomed leads us to believe,” the priest said. birth.” to frequently studying the skies, as the Magi apparently did. “ Astrologers may have said, ’Oh, that wasn’t there bef­ The date of Jesus’ birth has been disputed by historians “ I think it is important to keep in mind that the report in ore, that's significant,” ’ he suggested, “whereas the normal and theologians alike and estimates range from 12 B.C to 4 the Bible where astrologers from the East are apparently person wouldn’t have noticed.” A.D. talking about a celestial event or observation that occurred Cuban political prisoners arrive in U.S. By Laurie Hansen compiled by a number of U.S. voluntary agencies, he said. flights each week until all those with permission to emi­ WASHINGTON (NC) — Nine former Cuban political He said the USCC had not heard from Cuban government grate have come, Hohl said. prisoners and their families arrived in Miami Jan. 6, seven representatives regarding the fate of the 900.

J, tl Death squads return P Archdiocese of Denver n Salvadoran Archbishop Arturo Rivera Damas called an apparent resurgence of death squads in his country a “ nefarious sin” and vowed to seek ways to stop it. L Speaking in a homily, which was televised, he called M ortuary T for “ an end to this practice, which threatens the C consolidation of a true democracy as well as being a d nefarious sin that goes against the Christian spirit.” Jk Two Salvadoran human rights organization officials C were gunned down in separate incidents in late 1987. Dedicated To Serving In December, 25 civilians were reported killed in death squad-type fashion — shot from passing cars or abducted and tortured before having their throats slit. The Catholic Community During the 1970s and early 1980s thousands of Sal­ vadorans were killed by right-wing assasin^tion teams widely believed to have the backing or participation of security officials. El Salvador is engaged in a pro­ tracted civil war with Communist-led insurgents. The death squads often boasted anonymously of their deeds and accused their victims of being leftists.

Five-year high in violence Political violence in Northern Ireland set a five- year high in 1987 by taking 93 lives, including 11 slain in a single bombing. Responsibility for 60 of the killings was claimed by the Irish Republican Army. The 1987 casualty list was only four fewer than the 97 people killed in the mostly Protestant British pro­ vince in 1982. The worst year was 1972, when 467 died. ’The bloodiest single incident was the bombing Nov. 8 in Enniskillen that killed 11 people in a crowd celebrating Remembrance Sunday, Britain’s memorial day. Nearly 60 were wounded when the IR A bomb blew out part of a building owned by a Catholic parish.
