Anglican Bishop Claims
English Church Catholic
LONDON (NC) .VJuth intei
(*st was aroused here by the action
of a leading Church of England
(Anglican) theologian who ques
tioned the accuracy ot the oath by
which Queen Elizabeth will bind
herself at her coronation “to main
tain in the United Kingdom the
Protestant reformed religion estab
lished by law."
Queen's Oath
Preaching in Westminster Ab
bey, where the coronation rites
will take place next June, Dr. Ed
win Morris, Anglican Bishop of
Monmouth, declared that the.
Church ol England is not a Prot
estant church but is "the ancient
Church of the land, reformed in
deed, but Catholic still. Nowhere,
in its constitution, he said, did the
church describe itself as Protestant
and hence the oath the young
Queen will lake is inaccurate as it
stands.
Dr..Morris’ talk in Westminster
Abbey, ancient London home of
the Benedictine monks, now in
state hands, contained claims con
corning the Church of England
which two Catholic priests here
promptly contradicted.
“Not once in any of its official
formularies or documents. Dr.
Morris said docs the Church ol
England describe itself as Protest
ant In all ot them it expresses
or implies the claims to be the
Catholic church in this land
"’rhe Church ot England is no
new body created by Henry VIII or
Elizabeth 1. It is the ancient church
of this land, reformed indeed but
Catholic still. Our medieval ca
thedrals and churches did not foi
merly ‘belong to the Homan Cath
olics.' They have always belonged
to the Church of England."
Catholics Reply
The lust reply to Dr Morris
came from Father George P. Dwy
er, superior of the Catholic Mis
sionary Society, who said: “When
you change the worship, the teach

“COURTEOUS ERVICE"
THE CATHOLIC TIMES, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12. 1952
ing, the ruling authority of a
church, it is juggling with words
to pretend that there has been no
essential change But in recent
years the word Protestant seems to
have become unpopular in certain
circles in the Church oi England.
And so Bishop Morris now denies
that the Church of England is
Protestant at all.
The second Catholic answer
came I rum Fathei Joseph Christie,
who told a congregation at the
Farm Side Catholic Church that
“the mark of Catholicism is com
munion with the See of Home.”
Enforced on every monarch in
the past several hundred years, the
coronation oath is one of the last
remaining vestiges of antiCatholic
discrimination in the Constitution
ot the British commonwealth. Il
inflicts great hint on the many mil
lions ol Catholics not only in Brit
am itself, but throughout the Com
monwealth.
Past protests by Catholics and
others have caused some minor
modifications, but have had no ef
led on the essential purport of the
oath. It is now felt that any pro
test against the wording must
come rat het from the 25,000,000
Catholics in the Commonwealth
than from the 5,000,000 inside Brit
ain.

Insit Iler Ol Pope
Faces Prosecution
ROME (RNS)- A five year at
tempt by the Italian government to
prosecute a leading Communist
Deputy yn charges of insulting the
Roman Catholic Church and Pope
Pius succeeded here when the
Chambei of Deputies lilted his
parliamentary immunity.
The deputy, Luigi Longo, is one
of the Italian Communist party's
two vice secretaries.
Charges against Signor Longo
stem primarily from a cartoon pub
lished in a magazine in 1947. The
Pope was portrayed on the turret
of a tank with a dollar sign around
his neck, giving blessings to Pres
ident Truman and other Western
leaders kneeling before him and
offering arms.
The government’s victory in the
Chamber came on a show of hands
Only Communist and Left Wing So
cialists opposed the motion to de
prive Signor Longo of his im
munity.

I am not by
any means an
inveterate e
atre-goer, but I
have seen my
share of movies.
The best picture
I have ever seen
is “The Miracle
of Fatima."
1 speak in the
overall sense,
which is the on
ly sense that
makes complete sense. A show can
not rationally be judged on a few
factors, or some factors. It must be
judged on all factors.
You cannot intelligently say that
a production is good merely be
cause the plot is good, and or the
directing is good, the acting good,
the staging good, and so on.
There is a whole view of life, in
the light of which a person can
rightly assess anything. Without
that view, the assessment will be
more or less in error, more or less
inadequate.
Does a movie serve God? Does
it serve our fellowmen? Does it
have its roots in love of God and
love of neighbor? These are ques
tions likely to draw derisive hoots.
Yet. the fact remains that the
reason for existence, the purpose
of life, is to love and serve God
and neighbor. If we miss or ignore
that point, we simply bungle, blun
der and waste ourselves.
Is a movie good merely because
it serves, or attempts to serve, God
and man? Well, that is a very
strong point in its favor but the
serving ought to be done as expert
ly as possible.
The production of a movie is an
art. It is for experts, exactly as is
the directing of a symphony or
chestra. The best is none too good
tor'the service of God and man.
As likely as not, there have been
pictures which in one aspect or an
other of expertness were superior
to “The Miracle of Fatima.” I am
not competent to decide such ques
tions.
I simply give it as my opinion
that in the over all view, “The Mir
acle of Fatima” is the best movie
1 have ever seen. I shall attempt
to justify that statement.
The plot is, shall we say, God s
plot, it is concerned with that
great fundamental, the happiness
lorever, or the unhappiness for
ever, of human beings.
The conflict is the primal con
Hid between God and Beelzebub,
and between lhe Woman and Beel
zebub. The suspense is the conse
quence of the immense mystery of
man’s freedom of choice.
The very universe is involved in
the thing, because the miracle is
the colossal miracle of the sun,
falling or appearing to fall, from
lhe heavens. This once. Hollywood
really has something colossal.
The dramatic perils faced by the
producers were enormous. In a
hundred places, the slightest wrong
.shading would have destroyed the
success of the picture.
There was no room tor mistakes,
for ovei or -undei emphasis This
was a movie that had to be just
right all the way through, or end
in the kind of a failure that makes
an audience shrink.
lhe vision of Dur Lady had to
be handled with utmost delicacy.
Her voice her inflections, her tone
well. I should not like to be a di
rector hunting for the voice of he
Virgin.
The movie had to be clear to
those who are not Catholics, lhe
scriptwriters laced the exacting
task ot finding the precise re
wordings here and there which
would carry the message to every
body in the least falsifying it.
lhe three principal characters,
aside from Our Lady, were chil
dren Their roles would have been
difficult enough lor the finest
adult actors. Yet adults would not
do.
The producers, then, laced the
frightening task of portraying in
movie form the greatest event of

Joe Breig Says:
The Best Movie I’ve Seen
our time, and doing so mainly
through the performance of thrac
youngsters.
They had to lay before the
movie-going world God s personal
message to mankind, delivered by
lhe Mother of His Son. conveyed
by three children, and scaled with
a solar miracle.
They succeeded. They succeeded
admirably. This success, I think, is
a greater success than “The Song
of Bernadette". There isn't a
touch anywhere in “The Miracle of
Fatima” that goes wrong, or goes
too far, or falls short.
The public authorities of Portu
gal are precisely as atheistic, over
bearing and brutal as they were in
real life at the time of the visions.
The ecclesiastics are exactly as
careful and as penetrating in their
examination of the facts as they
must be. The children suffer just
as truthful children do suffer when
taken for liars. The people are un
critically devout, as simple folk
are. And the picture escapes that
pitfall of such dramas—silly pietis
tics. Finally, it stands to do more
than any other movie 1 can remem
ber—and that is the ultimate test.
