Dear Padre April 18, 2021

I thought detraction was a sin only if what you’re saying about someone isn’t true, but my

priest says it’s a sin even if it is true. What do you say?

We commit the sin of detraction when we, “without objectively valid reason, disclose another’s faults

and failings to persons who did not know them” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2477).

Part of respecting human dignity is to recognize that others have a right to their good name and reputa-

tion. We ought not to damage those goods carelessly, which is what happens when we engage in detrac-

tion. We slander or commit calumny when we speak or spread negative falsehoods about someone (see

CCC 2479). But detraction can happen even when we speak the truth.

Sometimes it’s objectively necessary to speak harsh truths about another person. For example, when we

observe an adult engaged in inappropriate behavior with a child, we report it to the authorities because

protection of vulnerable children outweighs concern over any adult’s reputation.

So truth-telling when clear communication of the truth is necessary is not detraction, even if it does

damage another’s reputation. However, carelessly sharing a true story or detail that doesn’t need telling

is detraction, and it’s sinful.

Fr. Matthew Allman, CSsR

•Acts 3:13–15, 17–19; 1 Jn 2:1–5a; Lk 24:35–48 Good News!

What will it take for the early followers of Jesus to recognize him in their

midst? Today’s Gospel recounts yet another episode of confusion and unbelief.

They had an extraordinary experience that startled and terrified them. Even

though other disciples reported having come upon the risen Lord, they didn’t real-

ize that it was also he they were encountering. Such an unusual experience might

have left them doubtful about the Lord’s presence, but the reports of others should

have thrown light on the reality of their own experiences. Are they like Thomas,

who was unwilling to take the word of others but demanded his own tangible expe-

rience of the risen Lord?

However, every account of the risen Lord’s appearance reports that his identity is

initially hidden. They only knew that it was him when he revealed himself. Mary

recognized him when he called her name (John 20:16); the couple in Emmaus

knew him in the breaking of the bread (Luke 24:31); even Paul on the road to Da-

mascus only understood who the Lord was when he revealed his name (Acts

9:3).

And what about us? What will it take for us to recognize the risen Lord in our

midst? Do we also need concrete evidence? Will it only happen if we have a meal

with him? But isn’t that exactly what the Eucharist is—a meal with the risen

Lord?

Sr. Dianne Bergant, CSA

A Word From Pope Francis

We know that slander always kills. This “diabolical cancer” that arises from

the desire to destroy the reputation of a person also attacks the ecclesial body

and seriously damages it when, as a result of malicious interests or to cover

up one’s own inadequacies, people unite to denigrate someone.

GENERAL AUDIENCE, SEPTEMBER 25, 2019

For Reflection

* Our faith tells us that the risen Lord is in our midst. Pray that you might

recognize him in your family members or in your workplace.

* What can you do for the needy in your society with whom Christ identifies?

Bishop Barron’s Corner Catholic social teaching—when it is not distorted or misrepresented — is famously confounding to

the pundits and politicos, both left and right.

This unique Catholic Social Teaching Collection aims to bring the both/and of the Church’s

social teaching into sharp relief .

Drawing on the Church’s encyclicals, Scripture, the Church Fathers, and the writings of various

saints and spiritual masters, the Catholic Social Teaching Collection reveals the ethical and

historical breadth of the Church’s various social teachings, and the metaphysical heart around

which they fall into harmony: the existence of God.

Catechesis

Catechesis on prayer - 21. The prayer of praise

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Good morning!

Let us continue our catechesis on prayer, and today we will give space to the dimension of praise.

We will take our cue from a critical passage in the life of Jesus. After the first miracles and the involvement of the disciples in

proclaiming the Kingdom of God, the mission of the Messiah undergoes a crisis. John the Baptist has doubts and makes Him

receive this message — John is in jail: “Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?” (Mt 11:3). He feels this an-

guish of not knowing whether he is mistaken in his proclamation. There are always dark moments, moments of spiritual

nighttime, and John is going through this moment. There is hostility in the villages along the lake, where Jesus had per-

formed so many prodigious signs (cf. Mt 11:20-24). Now, precisely in this disappointing moment, Matthew relates a truly sur-

prising fact: Jesus does not raise a lament to the Father but, rather, a hymn of jubilation: “I thank thee, Father, Lord of heav-

en and earth that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes” (Mt 11:25).

Thus, in the midst of a crisis, amid the darkness of the soul of so many people, such as John the Baptist, Jesus blesses the Fa-

ther, Jesus praises the Father. But why?

First and foremost, he praises Him for who He is : “Father, Lord of heaven and earth”. Jesus rejoices in his spirit because he

knows and feels that his Father is the God of the Universe, and vice versa, the Lord of all that exists is the Father, “My Fa-

ther”. Praise springs from this experience of feeling that he is “Son of the Most High”. Jesus feels he is Son of the Most High.

And then Jesus praises the Father for favoring the little ones. It is what he himself experiences, preaching in the villages: the

“learned” and the “wise” remain suspicious and closed; they make calculations; while the “little ones” open themselves and

welcome his message. This can only be the will of the Father, and Jesus rejoices in this. We too must rejoice and praise God

because humble and simple people welcome the Gospel. When I see these simple people, these humble people who go on pil-

grimages, who go to pray, who sing, who praise, people who perhaps lack many things but whose humility leads them to

praise God. In the future of the world and in the hopes of the Church there are always the “little ones”: those who do not con-

sider themselves better than others, who are aware of their own limitations and their sins, who do not want to lord it over oth-

ers, who, in God the Father, recognize that we are all brothers and sisters.

Therefore, in that moment of apparent failure, where everything is dark, Jesus prays, praising the Father. And his prayer also

leads us, readers of the Gospel, to judge our personal defeats in a different way, to judge differently the situations in which we

do not see clearly the presence and action of God, when it seems that evil prevails and there is no way to stop it. Jesus, who

highly recommended the prayer of asking, at the very moment when he would have had reason to ask the Father for explana-

tions, instead begins to praise him. It seems to be a contradiction, but therein lies the truth.

To whom is praise helpful? To us or to God? A text of the Eucharistic liturgy invites us to pray to God in this way, it says this:

“Although you have no need of our praise, yet our thanksgiving is itself your gift, since our praises add nothing to your great-

ness, but profit us for salvation” (Roman Missal , Common Preface IV). By giving praise, we are saved.

The prayer of praise is helpful to us. The Catechism defines it this way: it “shares in the blessed happiness of the pure of heart

who love God in faith before seeing him in glory” (no. 2639). Paradoxically it must be practiced not only when life fills us with

happiness, but above all in difficult moments, in moments of darkness when the path becomes an uphill climb. That too is the

time for praise, like Jesus who in the dark moment praises the Father. Because we learn that, through that ascent, that diffi-

cult path, that wearisome path, those demanding passages, we get to see a new panorama, a broader horizon. Giving praise is

like breathing pure oxygen: it purifies the soul, it makes you look far ahead, it does not leave you imprisoned in the difficult

and dark moment of hardship.

There is a great teaching in that prayer that for eight centuries has never lost its beat, that Saint Francis composed at the end

of his life: the “Canticle of Brother Sun” or “of the creatures”. The Poverello did not compose it in a moment of joy, of well-

being, but on the contrary, in the midst of difficulty. Francis was by then almost blind, and he felt in his soul the weight of a

solitude he had never before experienced: the world had not changed since the beginning of his preaching, there were still

those who let themselves be torn apart by quarrels, and in addition he was aware that death was approaching ever nearer.

It may have been a moment of disillusionment, of that extreme disillusionment and the perception of his own failure. But at

that instant of sadness, in that dark instant Francis prays. How does he pray? “Praised be You, my Lord…”. He prays by giv-

ing praise. Francis praises God for everything, for all the gifts of creation, and even for death, which he courageously calls

“sister”, “sister death”. These examples of saints, of Christians, and also of Jesus, of praising God in difficult moments, open to

us the gates of a great road towards the Lord, and they always purify us. Praise always purifies.

The Saints show us that we can always give praise, in good times and bad, because God is the faithful Friend. This is the foun-

dation of praise: God is the faithful Friend, and his love never fails. He is always beside us. He always awaits us. It has been

said that “he is the sentinel who is close to you and keeps you going forward with confidence”. In difficult and dark moments,

let us have the courage to say: “Blessed are you, O Lord”. Praising the Lord. This will do us much good.

Saint Anselm of Canterbury, Bishop and Doctor of the Church

c. 1033–1109

April 21—Optional Memorial

Liturgical Color: White

His pen pierced the blue sheet above to see God

Few bishops have been canonized as saints since the Catholic Counter-Reformation of the sixteenth and seven-

teenth centuries. The earlier history of the Church is, however, replete with saintly bishops. In the patristic era, in

the first few centuries after Christ, a vast constellation of saintly bishops shined on the Church. Today’s saint was

a scholar bishop in the mold of the educated churchmen of an earlier time. Saint Anselm was a world-class thinker,

a politically aware defender of the Church’s rights, a contemplative monk, a faithful son of the pope, and the great-

est philosopher of the eleventh century.

Saint Anselm entered the Monastery of Bec in Normandy, France, as a young man and quickly impressed his supe-

riors with his character and incisive mind. He was elected prior, then abbot, at a young age. He was a deeply

prayerful abbot who was close to his monks and who hated to be away from the cloister. The monastery had many

dealings with England due to its close proximity to that country, however, so Anselm travelled there regularly.

These visits eventually led to his appointment as the Archbishop of Canterbury. Anselm spent many years as

archbishop in conflict with English civil power over who had the authority to “invest” or empower, a bishop with

the symbols of office at his installation Mass. The lay investiture controversy was a long simmering dispute

throughout Europe. It was eventually resolved in favor of the Church’s right to invest its own bishops with crozier,

miter, and ring.

Much more than his role as a pastor in church-state conflicts, Saint Anselm’s most enduring legacy is as a philoso-

pher and theologian. Thinking was his avocation even as the monastery was his vocation. Anselm’s famous defini-

tion of theology as “Faith seeking understanding” has guided centuries of Christian thinkers. Anselm was a work-

ing intellectual who produced erudite works on a range of complex subjects. He is the originator, in particular, of

the ontological argument for the existence of God. The argument is ontological (or just “logical”) in that it is not

empirical (scientifically verifiable). It does not argue from outward in, starting with external, observable evidence

and then moving toward internal conclusions. The argument is powered, instead, by the raw strength of reason

itself. As an example of a reason-driven argument, no one needs to search the world over for square circles to con-

clude that square circles don’t exist. Circles are round, by definition. And no one needs to interview every single

bachelor to know that a bachelor is male. A bachelor is, by definition, male. Similarly, the very definition of God,

Anselm’s holds, is proof that God exists.

Anselm argued that God is a being than which none greater can be imagined. Supposing that the mind can imag-

ine nothing greater than God, and further supposing that what exists in reality is greater than what exists only in

the mind, then God must exist in reality. God’s non-existence is, then, logically impossible. This argument assumes

that the maximum or upper limit, to what the mind can attribute to God is self-contained in the meaning of the

word God. No such upper limit exists in defining pain, temperature, length, or numbers, for example. A longer line

can always be drawn, a greater number imagined, a sharper pain experienced, or a hotter temperature described.

But to imagine a being greater than God would just be to imagine God more fully. As long as the mind’s concept of

God is rational, then the argument is convincing. Anselm’s nuanced argument has provoked centuries of sophisti-

cated commentary.

Anselm’s life began among the Alps of today’s Northern Italy, a land of jagged, snow-encrusted mountains which

stand over the green valleys below. One night the boy Anselm, asleep in his remote valley home, had a vision. He

was called to the court of God on a high summit. Ascending to the very peak of a mountain, he entered the pres-

ence of the royal court and sat at the feet of the Master. God asked the boy who he was and where he came from.

Anselm answered well and was rewarded with sweet bread from heaven. And then he woke up. Anselm never for-

got this dream. He recounted it, in detail, many decades later, to the fellow monk who wrote his first biography.

Saint Anselm’s mind never really came down from that high court he first visited in a childhood dream. He walked

in the highest ranges, above the clouds, hiking from summit to summit, his pen piercing the blue sky to gaze di-

rectly into the realm above.

We ask your intercession, Saint Anselm, to help our faith to understand its object. You did not leave man’s sense of

wonder unchallenged but sought to organize human thought to meet the challenge of God. Help all thinkers to be

open to finding as much as searching.
