nae By DAVID RICHARDSON

Herald Associate Editor

A community with no goal outside
itself will eventually rot and that’s
what's happening to societies around the
world, says Father Michael] McCarthy of
Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church in
Terrace. so

Individuals and cultures seem to go
through periods of “flirtation” with
humanism, that is, the belief that there
is nothing higher than man and his
ideals, says Father McCarthy. The
results, inevitably are disillusionment
and failure.

“When a man exalts himself and
believes there is no power greater than
himself, .. the result is
bankruptcy,’’ he said during an
interview yesterday.

Father McCarthy and his senior
colleague Father Andrew Allison
emphasized that the Christian faith must
be lived day-to-day and hour-to-hour to
be real and effective. . It cannot be a
once-a-week formality and stil] remain
alive and forceful.

_ “Christianity is really a way of life, as
vital to a dedicated Christian as the air
he breathes, it is not merely being

. baptised, married and buried in the
church,” Father Allison explained,

Through their work at Sacred Heart,
the two priests ‘challenge people to
decide one way or another” about
making such a commitment, Father
Allison continued, so that Christ's
teachings can infuse ‘every delail of
their lives’” and form the basis of their
daily relationships.

Father Allison has spent 12 of the last
17 years in Terrace, while Father
McCarthy has been here just over one
year, They conduct daily mass, which is

of responsibility maintaining the church.
Part of the leadership provided by the
priests is in treading the sometimes thin
ine between tradition and innovation.
Often criticized for maintaining rigid
values in a changing world, the Roman

Catholic Church has modified its .

methods considerably in recent years,
says Father Allison.

‘Our approach is basically this:
Christ passed on a body of teaching and

said he would be with the church until
the end of time.”

“That which comes to us throu
scripture and tradition from Christ, the
church cannot change. However, that
which the church made - those methods
and traditions, the church can change.

“We must make a distinction between
those two,” he pointed out.

Father Allison does not view the
Junction of the priest as evangelical in
the sense of “going out’ and bringing
people into the church. ;

However, he explains, when someone
comes to the door of the church,
“seeking, wanting to know more about

’ the power behind life or despairing of the
“humanist” philosophy of which Father
McCarthy spoke, then it is the priest's
task to bring that one to a deeper
understanding of himself.

An outdoorsman and nature-lover,
Father Allison believes a man must be
humbled before he can begin any serious
spiritual development. He must
“discover a need for God,"’ which is
tantamount to admitting he is not an
autonomous, independent and totally
self-reliant entity,

Father McCarthy feels the dramatic
deterioration in societies around the
world is “judgement” on man’s lack of
faith. Man is atternpting to go his own
way, he suggests, and the consequences
are proving to be disastrous.

This phenomenon however, is having
gome positive side-effects, says Father
Allison. It is stimulating Christians of

ism: parishoners assume larger role

all denominations to see that there is
more that binds them together than
separates them. .

‘Itis man who has built the walls, but
by trusting in. the holy spirit, we can
bring about the unity that Christ prayed
for,’”’ he noted. 7

Father Allison said he does not know
how many parishioners the church has,
butitis growing every year. The church
is a new building located on the grounds
of Veritas Separate Schoo) on Straume
Avenue,

The first Roman Catholic Church in

_ Terrace dates back to 1917. However,

according to historian Nadine Asante, a
Father LeJac was known to have
christened a few Indians in Kitamaat
Village as far back as 1864.

Roman Catholicism is the largest of
Christian churches with over 550 million
members throughout the world. It is
purported to have great wealth and
influence and has been accused of:
attempting to force morality on people
by subjegating them to ponderous
theology and strict adherence to papal
encyclicals. But much df that criticism
is itself theological or at least theoretical
and, according to Father Allison,
theology is merely intellectual. It has its
place, but its place is relatively low on
the scale of importance.

Far more.important, says Father
Allison, is the mass as it is performed in
individual churches for individual
catholics.

“The mass is the renewal of Christ’s
sacrifice. It is Christ offering himself to
his heavenly father again. It is the
supreme prayer.”

@ purpose of the Catholic religion,

_ say the two priests, Is to bring people

closer to G
other.

“As it says in the bible, you can't love
God and hate your neighbor,”’ Father
Allison concluded. y,

and thus closer to each
