In a Dec. 8 apostolic letter, “Pa- tris Corde” (“With a Father’s Heart”), the pope said Christians can discover in St. Joseph, who often goes unnoticed, “an intercessor, a support and a guide in times of trouble.” “St. Joseph reminds us that those who appear hidden or in the shadows can play an incomparable role in the history of salvation. A word of recognition and of gratitude is due to them all,” he said. As Mary’s husband and guardian of the son of God, St. Joseph turned “his human voca- tion to domestic love into a superhuman oblation of himself, his heart and all his abilities, a love placed at the service of the Messiah who was growing to maturity in his home.” Despite being troubled at first by Mary’s pregnancy, he added, St. Joseph was obedient to God’s will “regardless of the hardship involved.” “In every situation, Joseph declared his own ‘fiat,’ like those of Mary at the Annunciation and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane,” the pope Continued on page 14 Capitol attack Read what Pope Francis and other faith leaders said about the Jan. 6 attack at the Capitol, page 15.

  • Modern Alternative Popes*
    Modern Alternative Popes* Magnus Lundberg Uppsala University The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) is arguably the most important event in modern Catholicism, and a major act on the twentieth-century religious scene at large. On several points, the conciliar fathers made changes in how the Catholic Church perceived the modern world. The language in the decrees was different from earlier councils’, and the bishops opened up for ecumenism and interreligious dialogue, seeing at least “seeds of truth” in other religious traditions. The conciliar fathers also voted in favour of liberty of religion, as meaning something more than the right to practise Catholic faith. A very concrete effect of the Council was the introduction of the New Mass Order (Novus Ordo Missae) in 1969 that replaced the traditional Roman rite, decreed by Pius V in 1570. Apart from changes in content, under normal circumstances, the new mass should be read in the vernacular, not in Latin as before. Though many Catholics welcomed the reforms of Vatican II, many did not. In the period just after the end of the Council, large numbers of priests and nuns were laicized, few new priest candidates entered the seminaries, and many laypeople did not recognize the church and the liturgy, which they had grown up with. In the post- conciliar era, there developed several traditionalist groups that criticized the reforms and in particular the introduction of the Novus Ordo. Their criticism could be more or less radical, and more or less activist. Many stayed in their parishes and attended mass there, but remained faithful to traditional forms of devotions and paid much attention to modern Marian apparitions.

Lidé po farisejsku vyučení za zlé pokládali Pánu Ježíši, že obcovals publikány čili celníky, a sami sebe v samolibosti měli za výkvět a ozdobu národa svého. Těm chtěl Pán Ježíš vysvětliti, jak liše a mylně smýšlejí o sobě, a jak rozdílný bývá úsudek Boží od úsudku lidí. Při tom pak chtěl Pán poučiti nás, kterak s modlitbou stálou, o níž mluvilv podobenství předchozím, máme spojovati také pokoru, poněvadž „modlitba kořícího se oblaky proniká, dokudž nepřiblíží se (až k Bohu); nepotěší se, aniž odstoupí, dokudž nepopatří Nejvyšší.“ Sirach 35, 21. Uvažme podobenství dnešní. „Dva muži vstoupili do chrámu, aby se modlili;jeden fariseus a druhý publikán.“ Luk. 18, -10. Ješto Jerusalém ležel na výšině, a chrám rozprostíral se na hoře Morii, proto pravil Pán Ježíš: „Dvamužové vstou­ pili do chrámu.“—Proč vstoupilido chrámu? Inu, pročse chodí do chrámu? Už dříve byl Kristus Pán rozhorleně pravil prodá­ vajícím a kupujícím v síni chrámu Jerusalémského: „Dům můj dům modlitby slouti bude.“ Mat.
