SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Catholics Operate Information Center In Washington, D.C. By LOUIS CASSELS United Press Correspondent Washington U What aspects of Roman Catholic faith are most puzzling to non-Catholics? Judging from the questions most frequently asked of two priests who operate a new "Catholic information center" in downtown Washington, they are: The church's stand on birth control. The claim that the Catholic church is the "one true church." Praying to the Virgin Mary and to saints. Belief in the infallibility of the Pope. Telling Catholics what books they may read or what movies they may see. The Revs. James Kerins and James Coen have expounded Catholic teaching on these points hundreds of times since they opened their unusual informa tion center in the heart of Wash ington's business district. The center, sponsored by the local Roman Catholic archdio cese, has been operating since May 5. About 50 persons a day, on the average, come in to ask questions. A substantial majority of the visitors are non-Catholics. "A few people come in with chips on their shoulders, hop ing to start arguments," said Kerins. "But most of them are sin cerely seeking information about some point of Catholic doctrine or practice which has puzzled or disturbed them." General Answers - Kerins and .Coen conduct each interview in a friendly, conver sational manner. They have no "set answers" for frequently asked questions. The answers given below should therefore be considered only as an outline of some major points they would make if you walked into the center to ask one of the "favorite five" questions: Q. Why does the Catholic church condemn any "artificial" birth control technique. A. Contraception violates the natural law put 'into human na ture by God. It involves the satisfaction of a natural instinct in such a way that the clear natural aim and purpose of the function are frustrated. The ob vious purpose of the conjugal act is the procreation of chil dren ... It is God's only way of continuing the human race. That conception of children may not in any individual case occur is due to nature itself, and there fore ultimately to God, the au thor of nature. What the church opposes is deliberate, artificial interference with nature. It does not teach this merely as a dis ciplinary law applied ""only to Catholics. Contraception is as seriously wrong in itself for the most primitive savage as it is for the most pious Catholic. Q. Why do Catholics contend there is only "one true church" the one headed by the Pope? A. The New Testament re cords that Christ said to Peter, "Upon this rock I will build my Church." From the very be ginning of the church's history, Peter clearly exercised authority as single head of the Christian church. And there is abundant testimony in the earliest cen turies that the bishops of Rome who succeeded Peter were ac cepted as the authoritative heads of the Church. Why the Saints? Q. Why do Catholics pray to the saints, and particularly to the Virgin Mary? A. uatnolics do not wor ship" Mary or the saints, be cause worship belongs only to God. But they believe that Mary, the mother of Christ, and the saints, who lived lives of vir tue far beyond the goodness of other human beings, have in fluence with God. There is abundant historical testimony that prayers to Mary and to the saints have often been the means of obtaining from God special favors or even miracles. Q. Do Catholics' really be lieve that the Pope a human being is "infallible?" A. The infallibility attribut ed to the Pope should not be confused with holiness, or moral perfection. Nor does it mean that every time the Pope speaks, he is divinely safeguarded from error. The Pope can make a mis take. It is only in certain cir cumstances when the Pope speaks to the whole Church, as the successor of St. Peter, on a doctrine of faith and morals that the Holy Spirit will pre vent him from making any mis take. Q. Why are Catholics forbid den to see certain movies, or to read certain books? A. The wrong kind of books and movies can bring serious harm to souls because they in duce people to commit sin and to violate God's law. Any parent with even a bit of common sense will govern his child's reading. The Church, in performing her job of eternal watchfulness for souls, properly warns her chil dren against these very real dangers to their eternal welfare. Presbyterians To Celebrate First 100 Years in Valley Sunday Jacksonville One hundredth anniversary ceremonies of the First Presbyterian church, Jack sonville, will be held Sunday, Sept. 22, starting with the 11 a.m. morning worship service.
