The A October The ctetfif Apeak cut Morgan St Josephs Church There an certain subjects of Im portance In conversation that take precedence over others Those subjects are discussed In everyday life by large masses of the people Their importance are men tioned dally over the radio they are por trayed on the screen they are em phasised by pictures and cuts In our local and daily press and they are brought to our attention by pan discussion They are even expounded by government regulations And what Is this today that has precedence over many others It Is Pollution as we might commonly un derstand It today making foul or dirty the things that should be clean and pure for mans use and benefit and to sustain his human timely existence here on earth Pollution as we hear about it Is the presence of waste or something where it should not be For example pictures on the TV screen of thousands of dead fish In our lakes and rivers brought about by some dement or waste or poison The air that we breathe and which Is necessary for human life becomes polluted by smoke end smog and other Impurities Likewise the soil that is so necessary for the production of food to sustain human life We have heard more about Pollution In It would seem man hadn t realized its danger and If continued and not checked it would finally mean the extinction of all human life So much has been said about this subject that one might be inclined to either this pollution or poison has now been conquered or the other extreme that nothing has been done to overcome Let us be fair and realize that pollution or dumping of waste where It should not be put has been going on for many years perhaps centuries and it cannot be completely overcome by the crack of a whip or the snap of a finger Governments organizations societies the beads of Industries and Factories are cooperating to overcome this hazard to human existence Scientists inventors and chemists have been working on means to prevent it but there remains the effort of every human being to do his part In dividual to overcome and prevent pollution But my dear friends all this talk and effort to conquer pollution seems to be to preserve and extend our human temporal existence here on earth which Is natural and human and right But there la another pollution Tar worse than the mentioned above and which can destroy not only a temporal human life but an eternal spiritual life and If more important than temporal Is there means and time and effort taken by man collectively and In to eradicate the pollution that can destroy the soul for eternity Are the dangers of this spiritual pollution brought before us often enough by radio the press and other sources Or rather arc they not more or less passed over or condoned or excused The Gospel of St Mark Informs us of the danger of this spiritual pollution by wor shipping and honoring God with only lip service and not In keeping His Com mandments when he quotes the words of Our Lord to the Pharisees Listen to He all of you and understand Nothing that goes into man from the outside con make him unclean for It is from within from man heart that evil intentions emerge for nication theft murder adultery avarice malice deceit indecency envy slander pride folly All these evil things come from within and make a man unclean Yes these are the pollutions that destroy not Just a timely human existence but an eternal spiritual life To sum up a good moral lesson In a humorous manner by a good story which can also teach a lesson Is it a true one Yes It is I heard it many years ago A European priest who was in Canada and not very well versed In speaking English but trying to learn it was assigned one Sunday to assist in a purely English speaking parish He attempted to preach In English this Sunday and took for his subject charity of man In speaking of his neighbor So he went on to say My dear brethen You hear people soy Jim so and so Is a good fellow but but he Is an awful man to drink and gets drunk often Mrs so and so is a nice woman But oh my she blabblabblab The little girl says 1 like so and so But she is not my religion and the little boys says my mother Is OK but she is old fashioned t agree with me shes stupid You know my dear you could go to hell on your THE CHURCH OF ST THE MARTYR ANGLICAN Corner Willow St and St Alban Drive Rev H J Dawson SUNDAY OCTOBLR
