But where strict divisions and hierarchies of soci- Ely are done away with, there sometimes results a levelling Dm- mg where everyone becomes of equal value on a plane which is hi h.

””.?:k,:oo 3 example the great sameness which is so evident in our society. We all live in the ggma kind of home, furnished in rather common manner. suc- (umb to the pressure of the same mvertlsements. seek the same rs- creation in movies and ball-games. SUM uniformly to have a,new tar and television; and we call this democratic living. But where m mtg does the true excellence or dignity of the human person mow itself? How is man exalted in this? Where are the leaders so necessary in our darkness. and so iamentably llacklnz? This DB9- trrli of living seems to stifle the development of the leader or the sliliit. .

The gravely serious results of this sameness become shockingly apllflfellli in the field of mortality. Like a liquid seeking its own level such a society inevitably follows the line of least resistance and ignores the ultlmates which God has established: "I am the Lord my God, thou shalt not have grunge Gods before me. How many people bother with Church on Sunday? To how many does it occur that the first and most important duty of their life is to worship God? The prevailing at- litude is that Church-going something extra: we are doing God a favor. one may 80 10 Church if he is not too tired on Sunday morning. The great ms- Jomy tacitly accept and unthink- ingly conform to this easy DI?-' (em. The Church tells her chil- dmi they must worship. because we is the most important thing in the world. In worship man has niiily, in adoration inari isgreat.

there is another feature of our society which has become widely accepted and is sheepishly l0l10W- rd by the great mass of people:

artificial birth control. so many follow the practice and have not the courage in the face of so much social pressure to say. "No; it is against the law of God. Again the level is low and the multitude is brought to the levels The Church is called out-of-date and backward because she Iuerts God's law and preserves the true dignity of man. Man is not an instrument" for selfish pleasure. He is free and intelligent and possesses a creative power. He violating this freedom and intel- ligence when deliberately he frust- rates his power to create. The harm to-society. the social sin. he refuses to see. "Where there is no,vision, the people perish." If we fall victim to an alien nation the fault will be our own.

What is the basis of democracy. and what is its originill Is it an invention of the last century or so, rising out of some rebellions against tyranny? We know very well that it is older by for than the last century. than America. or France. or ancient Greece. The democratic manifesto was writtan in the, Book of Genesis. "And (God) said: Let us make men to our image and llkeness...And God created man to his own im- age; to the image of God he cre- nted him." (Genesis I. 26-21). There could be no greater dignity than this for man. There could be no stronger reason for the exalt- ation and freedom of man.

a . .

The golden, comfortable, con- tended mediocrity which charac- terizes us is I far cry from the noble nature of real democracy. The goal we now strive for is wealth. and the pleasure it brings -and which turns to ashes in our mouth. Is this animal happiness the extent of man's dignity? Is this the summit of his potential- ity? What has become of the in-

I5 dividual perfection of man's great-

est powers? What has become of the pursuit of greatness meas- ured in terms of the love of God? There is no leader who ever held out so high a. challenge aschrlst: "Be ye, perfect. as your heavenly Father is perfect."

Democracy is not at fault; our understanding and appreciation of democracy is at fault. There is nothing belonging essentially to the nature of democracy which demands this great mediocrity and sameness. For unquestionably. within the ideals of democracy and within a deocratlc political framework the human spirit has the greatest room for its perfect realisation. But the human spirit is the creature of God. and sub- ject to God's laws. Men will never be great until they see in the law of God the means for r aching godhead.

A person who is sick appreci- ates what is. wonderful thing It is to be healthy. When he was strong he never thought of the great boon he continually enjoyed. Wouldn't it be tragic if we were to fail to appreciate democracy until we had it no longer? It is fearful to think that our contin- ued abuse of this precious herit- age will most surely mean the loss

of it.
