  • The Twenty-First Crossroad
    THE TWENTY-FIRST CROSSROAD Christ's Church has existed now for almost two thousand years. Church history tells us that within this vast length of time only twenty ecumenical councils· have taken place. We are indeed fortunate that the twenty-first ecumenical council wili convene during our life-time. For as Lorenz Jaeger, Archbishop of Paderborn and a member of the preparatory commission for the Second Vatican Council, has stated, "councils are always held at the great crossroads in the Church's history." Christianity is now approach­ ing one of these great crossroads. Centuries have often gone by from one ecumenical council to another as indeed happened between the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century and the First Vatican Council in the nineteenth. And in our own time, ninety years have elapsed since the Piedmontese army forced the First Vatican Council to a premature close in 1870. Perhaps as a result of this great lapse of,time, we of the twentieth century have often come to look upon ecumenical councils. as instruments which have been very useful and necessary to tlie Church in past ages, but which are no longer needed in the present se.t-u'p of the Church. Some have felt that the definition of papal infaliibility in matters of faith and morals, the high-point of the First Vatican Council, makes future ecumenical councils superfluous. If the pope cannot err when he speaks ex cathedra, what need is there for the lengthy discussions which often occur in an ecumenical council? What surprise then to many Christians when on January 25, 1959, Pope John XXIII announced to a group of cardinals at the Basilica of St.

  • The Seventh Sunday of Easter (C) 2Nd June
    THE SEVENTH SUNDAY OF EASTER (C) 2ND JUNE 2019 ‘Father, may they be one in us as you are in me and I am in you, so that the world may believe it was you who sent me’ (John 17, 21). S THE POLITICAL CRISIS DEEPENS in this country, our focus must be upon Our Saviour, Christ A the Lord. Our prayers are powerful, and we must respond to the anxiety and confusion by entrusting ourselves and our society to God’s merciful love. At the same time, we must uphold and respect the rule of law. Even if governments totter and fall, even if the media jubilantly fill our hearts with despondency, we have the Holy Spirit to impart to the fearful and confused. The divisions are clear enough, but the issues are so incomprehensible that the experts, especially the politicians, know not what they are. Furthermore, the crisis in other countries also gives ground for alarm. The search for security leads inevitably to extremes of right and left. We are now faced with an opportunity and a moment of grace. We are not powerless or hopeless or gloomy for the spirit of God fills all the earth, ‘and we have the mind of Christ.’ Dom Michael Clothier The results of the recent MEP elections show a country that is deeply divided within itself. Even the break-up of the United Kingdom seems once again to be a possibility. The divisions within the two traditional major parties resemble the cracquelure in an Old Master painting in need of urgent restoration.

I love superheroes. Based upon the abundance of superhero movies produced, I can assume three out of five people in the world do too. (If you are one of the two in your pew who does not, I appreciate your fortitude before the Hollywood blockbuster gauntlet.) But, I love superhero movies. The mindless preposterousness of the plot is part of the appeal; however, as I write this, it is three days before the release of the latest Marvel production and I cannot overlook that there is something profound at work in this one. The elements of its composition reveal the secular longing for divine salvation. The title: Infinity War The plot: “Thanos arrives on Earth to collect the Infinity Stones for a gauntlet that will allow him to bend reality to his will” (a quotation ripped from Wikipedia). The antagonist: Thanos. A name derived from Thanatos the Greek mythological personification of death The protagonists: Pretty much every superhero that Marvel has created “To what shall we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable In other words, Death arrives on Earth to collect our sense of the infinite, can we use for it? which will allow him to bend reality to his will.

Progress rests on painstaking efforts to uncover the truth, identify failures where they exist, and humbly seek forgiveness. Recent scholarship presents a complex picture in Europe both before and immediately after the Second World War, both in the local churches and at the Vatican. Such can­ dor prompts a question: Should the Society of Jesus, serving its own role in the universal Church, review its own history during this dark period, and where neces­ sary, join in the Churclis search for forgiveness? ear the beginning of the new millennium, Pope John N Paul II made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and prayed at Judaism's most holy site, the Western Wall of Herod's Tem­ ple.

    Pentecost — June 9, 2019 SAINT MARY’S & SAINT ELIZABETH’S CATHOLIC CHURCHES Phone: 701-579-4312 FATHER GARY BENZ-PASTOR [email protected]; Cell Phone 701-509-9504; Rectory 701-579-4874 VICTOR DVORAK –DEACON www.stmaryschurchnewengland.com “The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything that I told you.” A Maryknoll missionary nun was imprisoned in China after the Communist Revolution. Angry crowds shouted outside the prison where she was held, “Death to the western imperialists.” One night, the nun woke up with a start, believing she had heard a guard at the door of her cell; she feared it was time for her execution. But, it turned out no one was there. She thought to herself, “Perhaps it was the Holy Spirit, reminding me that He was with me. I call upon His peace and consolation while in prison.” This leads us to ask, “Where in my life, at this moment in time, do I need the peace and consolation of the Holy Spirit?” Jesus sends the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, into our world. On our part, we just have to accept Him in our lives. Familiaris Consortio (cont.) The Situation of the Family in the World Today #6. Worthy of our attention also is the fact that in the countries of the so-called Third World, families often lack both the means necessary for survival, such as food, work, housing, and medicine and the most elementary freedoms. In the richer countries, on the contrary, excessive prosperity and the consumer mentality, paradoxically joined to a certain anguish and uncertainty about the future, deprive married couples of the generosity and courage needed for raising up new human life: thus, human life is often perceived not as a blessing, but as a danger from which to defend oneself.

  • Jean Améry and Wolfgang Hildesheimer: Ressentiments, Melancholia, and the West German Public Sphere in the 1960S and 1970S
    JEAN AMÉRY AND WOLFGANG HILDESHEIMER: RESSENTIMENTS, MELANCHOLIA, AND THE WEST GERMAN PUBLIC SPHERE IN THE 1960S AND 1970S A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Melanie Steiner Sherwood January 2011 © 2011 Melanie Steiner Sherwood JEAN AMÉRY AND WOLFGANG HILDESHEIMER: RESSENTIMENTS, MELANCHOLIA, AND THE WEST GERMAN PUBLIC SPHERE IN THE 1960S AND 1970S Melanie Steiner Sherwood, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 The dissertation revisits the West German literary scene of the 1960s and 1970s to investigate how two of its Jewish participants, Jean Améry and Wolfgang Hildesheimer, sought to promote ethical responses to the Holocaust. The study incorporates literary analysis and socio-political reflections on the ethics of public life. First, it is an analysis of the relationship between judicial confrontation of the German criminal past, the silence in the wider German cultural sphere in the wake of this confrontation, and the two writers’ efforts to expose and address this ethical disconnect (chapter I). Second, it draws attention to two very different modes of reactive affect, ressentiment and melancholia. Through readings of Hildesheimer’s novels Tynset (1965) and Masante (1973) in chapters II and III, on the one hand, and Améry’s essay “Ressentiments” (1966) and the essay-novel Lefeu oder Der Abbruch (1974) in chapters IV and V, on the other, the dissertation analyzes these two modes. Hildesheimer employed a register of ethical writing that articulated the interconnected processes of mourning and melancholia, but unlike recent scholarship that focuses on these categories and valorizes melancholia as source of productive socio-political action, Hildesheimer did not prescribe them as exemplary modes of affective reparation.
