St. Cladimir's Ukrainian Catholic Church in Utica. The cardinal, spiritual leader of 6.5 million Roman (RNS Photo) New York — (RNS) — Intercom- munion, the practice in which Chris- tians of different Churches share the Eucharist together, \may very well be a major step\ towards full Chris- tian unity, according to Father Ber- nard Cooke, a leading Jesuit theolo- gian. Father Cooke expresses this view In a preface to the book \Is the Last Supper Finished?\ by Anglican Fa- ther Arthur A. Vogel. It is cheduled for publication Aug. 21 by Sheed and Ward. 'The further we advance in seri- ous ecumenical dialogue,\ Father Cooke says, \the more it becomes clear that the action of the Eucharist and the ministry which is exercised in it stand at the very focus of the questions that separate the various Christian Churches one from an- other.\ \The action of the Eucharist,\ he continues, \is meant to be a key sign of Christian unity aqd until it be- comes that, rather than a source of division, one cannot expect any real healing of the breach which now exists among Christians.\ \It is in this context,\ he maintains, \that increasing interest has been ex- pressed b the possibilities of inter- communion.\ \This intercommunion,\ he adds, \will not of itself constitute Christian reunion in the full sense, but it may very well be a major step in that di- rection.\ continued from Page 1 the \tent and sawdust revival meet- ings\ of the \U.S. Bible belt.\ They have criticized the spending of money on what they call a \worship rally\ while large segments of Colombia's population are in extreme poverty. Advocates of the Eucharistic Con- gress claims that the international meeting will spark a genuine renew- al of the faith in predominantly Cath- olic Colombia which will spread throughout the 225 million people in Latin America. They also claim that this renewal of \the bond of love,\ which is the theme of the conference, will lead to a vigorous and successful push for socio-economic reforms in accord with the Christian norms of social justice. \The Eucharist provides spiritual nourishment to the Christian Commu- nity of God whose members must be made aware of their obligations toward their brothers and sisters in Christ,\ explained Msgr. Mario Re- vollo press representative for the Eucharistic Congress. \This strengthening of the Chris- tian community will result in a change of mentality. Feelings of sel- fishness will be replaced by an au- thentic feeling of oneness in Chris- tian community expressed through the promotion of social justice for everyone.\ The congress will bring together the Pope, 20 cardinals of the church, 300 bishops, thousands of priests and ( ' nuns and hundreds of -thousands of pilgrims from rural Colombia and the rest of the world. A theological meet- ing and other events will run concur- rently with the congress. This city of two million people has been preparing for the congress and the papal visit for more than a year. New expressways have been cut through the colonial streets. A mu- nicipal project called Paulo \VI had been erected to house 12,000 pilgrims. It will later he turned over to city residents. The congress site itself, in the out- lying district of El Salitre, is com- posed of five seating and standing areas capable of holding 305,000 peo^, pie. There is room for ^SCOOO more just outside the conference site. A circular temple in the middle is an open-air structure with a concrete canopy to keep off the city's fre- quent rain. Bogota which is 8,355 feet above sea level m the Andes, has undertak- en an ambitious beautif ication cam- paign for the papal visit. Public and church buildings have been sand- blasted and washed and residents have been urged to spruce up their •houses and stores and to cultivate their gardens. Several thousand ragged urchins who usually haunt the streets in the center of town begging and picking pockets have been deported to camps in the country. They will be allowed to return after the congress is over. Theologian Defends Encyclical Newark, NfJ. — (NC) — A profes- fesor of dogmatic theology defended Pope Paul's encyclical on birth con- trol and told priests who dissent from the encyclical that they are going against not only the Pope but \the consensus of his brother bishops as well.\ \To lead (our people) by our preaching and counsel to neglect this document Is a betrayal of our minis- try, which is linked lo that of the official church,\ said Father Anthony T. Padovano of Immaculate Concep- tion Seminary, Darlington, N.J. Father Padovano addressed 300 fel- low pricsti of the lffiwark Archdio- cese at a'meeting called to endorse the statement of dissent from the encyclical issued in Washington in the name of 87 theologians. At the conclusion of the meeting. 20 of the 300 Newark priests sinned the state- ment of dissent, despite Father Pndo- vano's defense of the encyclical. \I accept the urging of some of my brother theologians that no Amer- ican theologian be silent on this matter,\ Father Padovano stated. \I accept the encyclical Humanae Vitae. without qualification.\ \It has been evident for years now that no matter which way the deci- sion went the church would have to sustain a shattering jolt,\ the priest continued. Noting that the encyclical has been overwhelmingly accepted by the bish- ops. Father Padovano said: \If we dissent, our argument Is not only with Pope Paul VI but with the consensus of his brother bishops as well.\ Declaring that the Pope \was care- ful to sec that more than one side would be heard,\ Father Padovano said, 'T am determined that moTo than one side of the theological com- munity will be heard on this issue.\ \Since the release of the encyclical one side has been heard, loud and often, in the press and over the mass media. Those who-disagree with them must now ho heard, especially those who have demonstrated their endorse- ment of reform and renewal. \Before liturgical reform and the civil rights issue became prominent in this country, a majority (of the church) were against both. Majority opinion is not, in itself, a guarantee of truth,\ Father Padovano said. \There was no reason why Paul, or the International episcopate, was bound to accept the majority vote of a commission called In for consulta- tion any more than the President of the United States must abide by the majority of his cabinet or endorse the litest plurality of a public opin- ion poll,\ the priest asserted. \When Paul balanced his state- ments in previous encyclicals in an 'on the one hand, on the other hand' manner, he was ridiculed for indc- * cisiveness by those same theologians who now dismiss him for having spoken decisively and unambiguous- ly,\ Father Padovano stated. Father Padovano stressed the need for compassion in implementing the encyclical. \Those who sin, will not be found only among those who re- ject this decision.
