ROME (AP) — A top Vatican adviser urged the Holy See on Thursday to take a
harder line against China's illicit ordinations of bishops, saying Rome's cu
rrent policy of compromise isn't working.
Hong Kong Cardinal Joseph Zen denounced the third such ordination in eight m
onths, which occurred earlier Thursday. The Rev. Joseph Huang Bingzhang was
consecrated as bishop of Shantou, according to Liu Bainian, honorary preside
nt of the Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association, which runs China's Catholi
c churches.
The ordination deepened a standoff in which the Vatican insists the pope has
sole right to appoint bishops and Beijing's Communist leaders see that posi
tion as foreign interference in their internal affairs.
Zen spoke in New York, where he was meeting with Chinese Catholic communitie
s, and held a news conference to condemn the illicit ordinations. He questio
ned whether top Chinese officials were really behind them, suggesting they w
ere more likely the work of Patriotic Association officials.
"At this moment, it's a war," Zen said.
On Wednesday, Zen took out a half-page advertisement in Hong Kong's mass-mar
ket Apple Daily newspaper to issue an "urgent appeal" to Chinese President H
u Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao.
Zen urged the two Chinese leaders to restrain "rogue public servants" who ar
e "using violence to assist scum inside the church to force bishops, priests
, and followers to do things against their consciences."
Beijing severed ties with the Holy See in 1951 after the Communist Party too
k power and set up its own church outside the pope's authority.
Faithful on the mainland are allowed to worship only with the state-sanction
ed church, which recognizes the pope as a spiritual leader but rejects his a
uthority to appoint priests and bishops. A thriving underground following re
mains loyal to the Vatican.
Pope Benedict XVI has prioritized improving relations with Beijing and recon
ciling the two churches. In recent years a compromise had been reached under
which both Beijing and Rome agreed on bishop candidates.
But the agreement seems to have fallen apart in recent months.
The Vatican was furious over the ordinations of the Rev. Guo Jincai in Cheng
de city in November and the Rev. Paul Lei Shiyin in Sichuan province just tw
o weeks ago. It does not recognize them as bishops.
In June, the Patriotic Association said it had to urgently fill more than 40
empty bishops' seats because the vacancies were causing serious problems in
the handling of church affairs.
Zen said "because of the attitude of compromise," the Vatican had been willi
ng to accept candidates for ordination who were not really loyal to the Holy
See in their hearts. He said previously, candidates had to join the Patriot
ic Association but "in heart" were aligned with Rome.
"Unfortunately, the Holy See was very reluctant to take action because they
want to appease the Beijing government," Zen said.
On Thursday, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi told reporters the
Chinese ordination caused "pain and concern" at the Vatican.
"The position and feelings of the Holy See and the pope have already been ex
pressed in previous recent circumstances," Lombardi said. | k**n
