Antropologiczne implikacje Jr 1,4-19
Klimek, Piotr (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
This article presents an analysis concerning the special task the prophet Jeremiah was to undertake: Yahweh appointed him a prophet for nations and therefore sacrificed him as a gift for the people. A statement that God’s messenger belongs, in a certain sense, to the people, seems to have a special anthropological meaning in this text. Jeremiah personally found out how much he was the part of the Israel community after he had been persecuted for the words of reproof and had witnessed the conquest and destruction of Jerusalem. As these events were taking place, Jeremiah was acting as a defenceless man who cannot resist his persecutors. When he appears before the court, his only weapon is the strong belief that: “in truth the Lord had sent me to you to speak all these words in your hearing” (Jer. 26,15). Nevertheless, he cannot oppose them with word or deed since he is a servant of the people he was sent to. His task is to reprove them and he is not able to resign and ran away, no matter what the reaction of his listeners would be. He remains in Jerusalem after its conquest and then accompanies fugitives to Egypt. He never leaves his people. In the light of the analysis that has been carried out we can therefore declare that Jeremiah was very strongly inscribed into the world he lived in. Specially prepared and equipped by God, he undertakes a specific activity towards particular people. That is what happens in prophets’ lives. Jeremiah is distinguished from the others by his relationship with God. Perhaps that is why in the Matthew’s Gospel (16,14) he is mentioned among the prophets associated with Jesus’ mission.

Czy nadchodzi post-chrześcijańska epoka? Analiza kulturowych zjawisk współczesności
Grzybowski, Jacek (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
There is no need for detailed sociological analysis to realise that the currently dominant culture provides the basis for secularization and absolutizing of secularist paradigm. There is an ongoing effort of creating and maintaining the world without God and, as a result, we have to face relativism which destroys natural and evangelic values. In consequence we witness the secularization of public life as well as private and religious indifference and passivity in front of transcendental values and truths - God and Church. Religion, its symbolism and its strong cultural message, were forced to “emigrate” to the private sphere, playing increasingly marginal role in modem community. Over the last several years we have witnessed considerable cultural and social changes essentially caused by universality of consumerism (as many goods as possible for as many people as possible) as well as by freedom, understood as a possibility of choice of different but not equivalent ways people live and behave - that is, relativism. As a result, culture became a matter of choice and consumption. Therefore the present effort of Catholicism, its firm voice in public and moral matters is engaged in the ultimate struggle for the future of Europe. It may occur that in case Christianity is marginalized and its important in public debate voice disappears, “Europeism” of the part of the globe between the Ural Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean will vanish. Essential identity of this continent is not founded on a race or a language but on Greek theoretical thought (philosophy), Roman law and evangelical inspiration which constitute the foundation of our civilization.
Dobór metod w katechezie dorosłych
Pierzchała, Piotr (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
In this paper author outlines criteria that govern selection of methods suitable in adult catechesis. He begins his analyse with an elucidation of the term “method” and subsequently presents basic methods which are and should be used in adult catechesis. In his work the author explains the need for methodological pluralism in approach to adults recipients as well as points out the principles which should govern the selection of the most appropriate methods. Finally, P. Pierzchała specifies criteria for the selection of methods in adult catechesis referring to well-known Polish and foreign catechists. In conclusion the Author warns against focusing only on the catechetical method without considering the content of catechesis.
Implikacje eklezjologiczne doktryny o przyjaźni św. Tomasza z Akwinu w perspektywie roku kapłańskiego
Gaworek, Sylwester (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
The significance of friendship was appreciated by a number of remarkable thinkers. In Greek Antiquity one of those was Aristotle: two books of his Nicomachean Ethics, as well as vast fragments from his other works, are focused on this issue. According to the Stagirite, every man is striving for self-fulfilment thus is striving for happiness. Therefore, every human person, as humans are by nature social beings, needs friends, since such fulfilment is possible only in the relationship with other people. Among non-Christian thinkers of Antiquity who wrote in Latin, Cicero requires our special attention. One of his philosophic dialogues - Laelius de amicitia - is focused on friendship. In this dialogue, which was very popular in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, friendship is considered as a special bond that connects only good people and emerges under the influence of natural need of love and kindness. St. Thomas’ doctrine of friendship, when closely scrutinized, strongly emphasizes the importance of the very same values defended later by the representatives of one of the main streams of modem philosophy, i.e. personalism. Personalistic principle as categorical imperative, formulated by Karol Wojtyła, claims that a human person cannot be used as a means to achieve other people’s goals. Analysing Aquina’s thought we observe that precisely his doctrine of friendship the abovementioned rule fully applies to. A friend for St. Thomas ought to be loved in a totally unselfish way which excludes any form of utilitarian or hedonistic treatment of a person who is the object of love. St. Thomas stated that having friends is a necessary condition for experiencing real happiness in temporal life: „felix indiget amicis” May all the faithful be able to experience such happiness - in the Church and through the Church. May all the priests experience it in a special way during the sacerdotal year. As they draw joy from the fact of being called friends by Jesus (cf. Jn. 15,15).

Kształtowanie się obrzędów święceń prezbiterów w liturgii rzymskiej w świetle Pontyfikału Rzymsko - germańskiego z X wieku
Cieślik, Paweł (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
According to the principle lex orandi lex credendi, the liturgy of the Roman Church expresses faith of the whole catholic community. In its essential form, as well as in particular prayers and texts, it corresponds to the deposit of faith (depositum fidei) conveyed over the centuries within the Tradition. It also applies, to a great extent, to rites by which the sacrament of holy orders is administered. This paper tries to demonstrate the evolution of liturgical books and rites connected with the rite of ordination in the Roman Church. Rite of ordination in the ancient Roman Rite was very simple – its most important element was the prayer of consecration and laying on of hands by the bishop. Romano-German Pontifical contains a lot of German and Gallic elements which were merged with the traditional Roman liturgy. This Pontifical includes, among other things, the rites of ordination to the priesthood {Ordo qualiter in romana ecclesia presbiteri, diaconi vel subdiaconi eligendi sunt). The most important liturgical activities within the Roman liturgy lost their primary meaning in the Roman-Gallic liturgy. At the same time, new elements were introduced. The final form of the ordination rite in Roman-Gallic liturgy is included in the Roman Pontifical, published in 1596, which had remained obligatory in the Latin Church until the reform carried out at the behest of the Vatican Council II. The reformed rite of ordination for bishops, priests and deacons was the first postconciliar liturgical book published during the liturgical renewal after the Vatican Council II. Despite the radical reform of the ordo, many of the rites from Romano-German Pontifical survived, e.g. promise of obedience, anointing of the hands of the newly ordained and handing over of liturgical vessels and vestments. The Author describes how different rites have been taking shape through a dialogue with particular culture and under the influence of customs that have prevailed in a given epoch as well as in a specific milieu. Historical and cultural context provides sometimes the key to understanding genesis and meaning of specific rites and prayers within the liturgy. The effort to analyse documents and liturgical testimonies from X century requires carefulness to avoid jumping to conclusions. Very limited number of sources survived from the early Middle Ages and this is the reason why some explanations are only hypothetical. Liturgy of the Holy Mass and liturgies of particular sacraments were developing simultaneously with formation and creation of new liturgical books that had not existed before. This process began in the Church in VIII century and originated from the need of consolidation of liturgical life and, as a consequence, community life of the faithful of the Church.
Nauczanie muzyki kościelnej w seminarium duchownym w świetle dokumentów Kościoła katolickiego. Głos do dyskusji o stanie muzyki w polskich świątyniach
Łukaszewski, Marcin Tadeusz (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
Music has been the favoured art of the Church throughout the centuries. Its role in the liturgy has been formulated by the Church hierarchy in numerous documents. Since the second half of the 20th century the crisis of music in the Polish churches has been observed. It affects congregational singing, the priest’s chanting, as well as organ playing. It seems that music remains in last place on the list of Church’s concerns, despite the recommendations enclosed in the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of the II Vatican Council, along with accompanying instructions. These recommendations repeatedly emphasized the importance of music in liturgy. We read about the preservation and fostering of the great treasury of sacred music, about the cultivation of Gregorian Chant as the first and proper to a Roman liturgy, about pipe organ as the instrument that is most appropriate for spirit of the liturgy, about necessity of theoretical and practical education of church musicians and members of the clergy as well as creation of institutions dedicated to teaching and performing of sacred music. Music course in the Seminary of Diocese of Warszawa-Praga includes several subjects. The core subject is church music, which includes the whole of issues connected with theory and practice of liturgical music. Equally important subject is voice production combined with phonetics. The third is community singing, in which all students participate. In the seminary there is also a schola cantorum consisting of seminarists endowed with a good voice and a good ear for music. In Polish seminaries musical abilities are not taken into consideration during the interview. Nevertheless, music education should be part of the overall formation of future priests. From the very beginning of their seminary formation seminarians must be sensitized to the beauty of music. They must be shown a pivotal role music plays in the liturgy. Not only is the sacred music the adornment to liturgical celebration, not only adds splendour and grandeur to it, but it also is an integral part of the liturgy, according to the guidelines of the Second Vatican Council. Ignoring music in the Church we commit the sin of negligence and fall into conflict with liturgical regulations.
Rola obrazu w teologii Josepha Ratzingera
Bachanek, Grzegorz (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
In his theological writing Joseph Ratzinger often uses imagery from the Bible, the writings of the Church Fathers and liturgy but also from literature or from peasant customs expressing Christian faith. By noticing a relationship between Christian sacral art and the mystery of the Incarnation and the Resurrection of Christ, J. Ratziner regards this art as a result of development of Old Covenant traditions. Upon analyzing reasons for iconoclasm he observes that there can be no reconciliation between iconoclasm and Revelation. He also gives a general overview of the theological tradition of icon painting. Elucidating the evolution of understanding of the sacral image traditions of the Eastern and the Western churches he encourages to bring both traditions together. He stresses that sacral images inspire truth and a life of faith. An authentic religious image has its roots in prayer and leads the faithful to prayer. In a theological work images capture the readers attention and aid in a closer understanding of the text because as they often refer to various existential matters. In the end we are all called to become living images of Christ based on the example of the Christian Saints.
Rosyjska Cerkiew Prawosławna wobec Kościoła rzymskiego na przestrzeni wieków
Solarczyk, Marek (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
n the recent years different attitudes and comments of the representatives of Russian Orthodox Church concerning the activity of Roman Catholic Church could have been observed. The majority of these opinions contained a negative evaluation of catholic initiatives, frequently regarded as an intervention into strictly orthodox dimension of religious life in Russia. A slight change in the relationship resulting from Patriarch’s Aleksy II death and subsequent Metropolitan’s Kirill election has not solved all the problems. Actual relations between the two Churches are contingent upon the variety of long-term relationship between the faithful from different Christian confessions in Russia. When catholic diocesan structures in Russia have been re-established and Pope John Paul II nominated the new bishops (1991) creating apostolic administratures in 1991 and 1999, the orthodox Church accused Catholics of endangering the Orthodox way of life. Such beliefs grew stronger after the ecclesiastical structures at the diocesan level were created in Russia. As these have come into existence on 11 January 2002, Russian Church authorities expressed their indignation and recognized the Holy See’s activity as a manifestation of the proselytic expansionism of Catholic Church.
Słowo Boże jako źródło katechezy
Tomasik, Piotr (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
The Author outlines the framework for the discussion on relationship between Bible and Tradition within catechesis. This task is being performed on two levels : that of findings of systematic theology and that of conclusions for catechetic reflection based on the forementioned findings. The Author refers to two catechetic directories, general (1997) and Polish (2001), demonstrating first of all that biblically-based approach to catechesis cannot be reduced to its ecclesial dimension based on the Tradition. This article invites us to discover the proper relationship between the Bible and Tradition in catechesis.
„…wystarczy obmyć sobie nogi...” (J 13,10)
Romaniuk, Kazimierz (Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Diecezji Warszawsko-Praskiej, 2009)
Every year in the Holy Thursday Liturgy the bishops of the Roman Catholic Church in cathedrals and the major superiors - especially Benedictine abbots - usually in the central basilicas, perform the rite of mandatum - the ceremony of washing the feet of twelve friars or some lay men who have been selected from the members of the congregation. The rite of foot-washing appears to have been practiced in the majority of all the world religions. The author pays special attention to the significance of ablution rites in the Old and New Testament, referring to the texts which express the significance of these rites. In particular, the Author tries to interpret the fragment of chapter 13 of the Gospel according to St. John which tells us about Jesus washing His disciples feet. The Author shows the Biblical roots of this rite as well as its connection with Jesus prophetic mission. Moreover, he treats the abovementioned pericope as a special tribute paid to “apostolic feet” Not only does the act of washing of feet performed by Jesus express humble love of neighbour but this is also the homage paid to apostolic feet, since these are the feet that will carry the Good News to the comers of the earth.
