  • Constitutional Convention for Giving Firm Shape to That Will
    We Commend ..... This report is about practical intent. It says: "Here is what we are going to do," not "here is what we would like". Those who seek inspirational home rule rhetoric are respectfully directed elsewhere, including to the Convention's own previous publications. We have moved on. We regard the argument in principle as compelling. The longing of the people of Scotland for their own Parliament rings clear and true every time opinion is sounded. We believe that the momentum for change is now too great to deny; and that a Scottish Parliament will soon be meeting for the first time in nearly three centuries. What has been missing has been a practical scheme for bringing the Parliament into existence, and a hard-headed assessment of what it will be able to achieve. That is the gap which this report fills. This report shows that the Parliament can work, and it shows how. In doing so, it answers opponents who have tried to portray a Scottish Parliament as a pipe- dream, a fantasy which the Scots, unlike other peoples around the world, somehow cannot turn into reality. The Convention has a diverse membership, as diverse as we could make it. Diversity and unanimity are not natural companions. It is the instinct of political parties to disagree with one another, and the instinct of civic groups like the churches, the trade unions and others to be impatient with the preoccupations of politicians. This has meant that a lot of time and effort has been required to arrive at the proposals in this document.

Der Kalender erscheint nur einmal im Jahr. Ihr erwartet daher vom Kalendermann etwas ande­ res als vom Reporter einer Tageszeitung. Unser Kalender ist noch weltanschaulich einheitlich, d. h. in unserem Falle katholisch, während die Tageszeitungen nicht mehr eine, sondern ver­ schiedene religiöse und politische Anschauungen bedienen wollen. Unser Kalender kann auch nicht für alle Probleme des kommenden Jahres und darüber hinaus Lösungen anbieten. Er kann auch nicht über die tausend Geschehnisse der jüngsten Vergangenheit berichten. Der Kalender­ mann wird auf einige grundsätzliche Fragen hinweisen, die in christlichem Geist gelöst werden sollen. Ich nehme mir da ein Beispiel an einem berühmten Kalendermann, nämlich Alban Stolz; der war auch Priester wie ich, lebte auch in Freiburg, aber nicht im Üchtland, sondern im Breisgau. In einem ganz vergilbten Kalender fand ich sein Geleitwort für den Jahrgang 1881. Ich drucke es ab und schreibe daneben mein Geleitwort für 1981. Der Kalendermann F. N.
