Paper 1

Mother and fetus: one entity 

or two separate entities?

Catherine N Whittle DD, S.R.N.

Abstract: There are two leading approaches to pregnancy in law: pregnant women are viewed either as single entity or two separate entities. This study sets out to ascertain the following from the anatomical and physiological viewpoints: 

 whether the unborn fetus is merely uterine content continuous with maternal tissues, or 

 whether the unborn fetus is an anatomically and physiologically separate individual with unique fetal tissues co-existing within the maternal host as temporary gestational dweller. 

The anatomical and physiological reality of whether mother and fetus are one entity or two separate entities can be posited to have impact upon medical, nursing and moral ethics.

Keywords: Ethics, Father, Fetus, Human Zygote, Intersex, Law, Medical, Moral, Mother, Nursing, One Entity, Pregnancy, Reproduction, Two Entities

Paper 1

Fr Norbert Jansen and the Rise of the Theological Education by Extension College in Southern Africa

Abstract: Gerardus Marie Antonius Jansen (cloister name Father Norbertus) brought the dynamic of phenomenological approach in theology to bear upon twentieth century religious and spiritual education. His unique spiritual vision continues to influence pastoral and ministerial training, as well as offer international resource within university libraries and dissertations. Jansen's educational approach developed sequentially from 1954 - from experimental residential theological education to correspondence theological education - both nationally and abroad. The culmination of Jansen's theological education lifework was the integration of the theology correspondence course into the Theological Education by Extension College in Southern Africa. The Dutch Dominican collaborated with other Dominicans in a correspondence course in theology which became known as TEE - theological education by extension. Later he became more or less its exclusive editor. Theology correspondence courses from South Africa reached both national and international students as far afield as America through postal services and media of the time. In 1976 the resultant theological educational structure culminated in the handing over of the course to an ecumenical board. Within this paper, Jansen's role regarding the rise of theological education by extension in Southern Africa is explored.

Keywords: Existentialism, Jansen, Norbert, Phenomenology, Philosophy, Theological education by extension Southern Africa

CHRISTIAN TEACHING

Foreword

Dear children and teachers,

Welcome! This colouring book has been made especially for you. The book is a special guide which leads us to know Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

Jesus is not just a name in history or a figure in stories. He is alive, and He loves each one of us deeply. He calls you by name. He walks with you, listens to you, and wants to fill your life with courage, hope and joy.

Each page shows a beautiful moment from our Christian faith. As you colour, you are not just filling in shapes, you are bringing to life the story of God’s Love for us. Listen to the gentle Voice of Jesus calling you closer while you colour pictures about the Kingdom of God.

Every design in this book reminds us of something special. We remember how Jesus teaches us and saints inspire us. By colouring, we realise how God calls us to grow in kindness, prayer and holiness.

This colouring book is companion to Catechism Book One. Colouring pages may be used at home or in catechism class activities.

As we enjoy the beauty of God’s creation, let us colour with holy imagination.

May this book bring you joy, peace and a heart that shines with God’s love.

Blessings,
Catherine Nicolette Whittle DD
In Christ's love
