Good becomes great writer

I love your paper and am most grateful to the kind people who send it out to me in India. I read everything in it. And I love, as I must, Peter Hebblethwaite. Did not the Lord command us to?
But I find it difficult to like what he writes. Can he write a single piece without a snide sideswipe at the Vatican or the establishment?
In a recent Charterhouse Chronicle Mr Hebblethwaite savaged a former confrere of his — Fr Ricardo Lombardi — who, despite his faults, has certainly done a lot of good to a lot of people. When his mother praised him and said: "you must be proud of yourself for what you have done", Lombardi replied: "No! Jesus does it all."
Ilebblethwaitc secs fit to snicker at this answer. Is it not true that any spiritual good that is achieved as a result of our efforts is done not by us but through us?
Hebblethwaite undoubtedly has a great deal of knowledge and is a skilled writer. Perhaps if he reflected again on the Spiritual Exercises, on which he was reared — and which were meant not only for Jesuits — he might acquire a little humility and charity. Then he might become a great writer.
Fr R H Lesser Rajasthan, India MAY I make two brief points. In the Charterhouse Chronicle (March 1), the Jesuit general, referred to was Count (not prince as mistakenly stated) Wladimir Leddchowski.
Commenting upon History just round the corner, Charterhouse Chronicle (March 29), I beg to differ: General Wojciech Jaruzelski is not ,a Jesuit old boy. He was educated by Marian Fathers, in the well known Warsaw boarding school, in Bielany.
