China: Preparations are underway for the 9th Assembly of “Catholic Representatives”

The 9th national Assembly of Catholic Representatives – the highest authority governing the Church in China – should be held just after Christmas, save for any last minute glitches, that is more than a year after it was supposed to take place…The ceremony for the episcopal ordination, which took place in Chendu, was attended by Paul Lei Shiyin, the illegitimate bishop of Leshan, who was ordained without the Pope’s approval on 29 June 2011. He was not, however, among the concelebrants at Wednesday’s ordination ceremony…

施耐德枢机是教会中最知名的信仰的辩护者最近在接受TVlibertes的采访中承认:在教会内我们巳看到一种奇怪的分裂存在圣职人员当中,他们自称与教宗保持共触,但却打破了与基督的关系、与真理的关系、与基督真正教会的头的关系。〞分裂〞希腊文的原义是指一个人从身体的整体中分割出来。基督是神性真理之身的整体,与这超性之身的合一也是显明可见的(Christ is the totality of the Body of Divine Truth, and unity in His supernatural body is also visible. )但是我们今天看到一个奇怪的分裂类型,外表上看来,他们大多数都维护着与教宗的共融,但有的是为了个人的利益,或有的对教宗过度的崇敬,但同时却打破与基督的关系,祂是教会真正的头。

普世教会能做些甚么呢?
就我们这方面而言,应该帮助教会善度信仰,不要在威胁天主教核心以及与教宗关系的要求面前屈服。很不幸,美洲和欧洲的一种神学正渗透到中国教会。这种神学要求自己选择主教的自治、独立于教廷。由此,美洲和欧洲有人支持中国主教这样做。他们说:「如果你们能成功,我们就追随你们。」
正如我们所看到的,不久前,「独立自主」的问题祇是与政府的关系,现在也出现在神学方面了。有时,好像教廷与其说担心牧灵问题,似乎过于让政治恐惧占上风,过于渴望不惜一切代价地建立外交关系。例如,教廷多少次要求释放被关的主教们?
每次与中国政府代表见面时,我们都始终坚持要求释放这些兄弟,但政府不听我们的。这些主教都年迈体弱,他们的获释祇是人道主义的行动。很不幸,我们没有得到回答。或许还需要公开的呼吁,而不只是私下面对面的。
有的地下教会教友要求启动龚品梅枢机列真福品案,您怎样看呢?
很困难,但祇是技术上的难题。事实上,这需要中国的教区、地方教会收集整理数据,提交给教廷宣圣部。如果能这样做,毫无疑问梵蒂冈将予以考虑。让上海地下教会和公开教会达成共识可能会有问题。但这并非不可能,而且其它许多殉道者也面临着同样的问题,他们是在近几十年里死在劳改营、监狱里的,或者贫困潦倒。如果每个教区都能收集整理这些殉道者的数据,就可以送交罗马,正式着手列真福品案。如果教区可以启动此类程序,我们会非常高兴。
刘祥文、扬学哲神父都是死在监狱里。
