By Ed Blanche Assrv'i.ated Press Writer Two gunmen BELFAST, Northern Ireland burst into Gerald Mastersons Belfast home last May J and shot him five tunes as he lay in bed with his wife. ssej Roman Catholic metal Masterson, a 41 worker, died instantly. There seems little doubt that he was shot simply Sx because he broke the rules and married a Protestant a woman, a police source commented. Masterson was slam in North Belfast, a notorious killing ground for rival Catholic and Protestant Ml assassination squads. More than 50 persons have V been murdered there this year alone. Second Attack by Gunmen f 4jj It was the second time gunmen had attacked , a t Masterson. He and his wife moved to 3 North Belfasts Catholic quarter last year after an I earlier abortive assassination bid. The authorities do not know whether Masterson was slain by Protestants or Catholics. It doesnt really matter. Extremists on both sides in this British torn by sectarian warfare for more than. j4 province, seven years, disapprove of marriages across the religious divide. i The problem centers almost exclusively in the working class ghettoes which for centuries have been a cauldron of deep religious conflict. "J Couples who defy the unwritten rules against 4 1 mixed marriages in the feuding ghettoes normally are snubbed by families, friends and neighbors. j&J Thats the least they can expect. Couples have to be very sure cf themselves to go through something like this, said a counselor who works with the fledgling Northern Ireland Mixed Marriages Assn. (NIMMA), an organization of lay volunteers and clergymen who advise and comfort couples who love well but not wisely. In many cases they face censure from their families. But it doesnt end there. Life Gets Very Tough "Maybe when the word gets out theyll get a bomb through the window, or beaten up by a mob of local thugs, ostracized at work or in the shops. Life suddenly gets very tough. Falling in love with someone from the other side in this country can pose the most appalling problems that test love to the extreme, the counselor said. The attitudes to mixed marriages have long been set by the rival churches in Ireland. Both Protestant and Catholic churches frown on such marriages. One of the major obstacles the Catholic church had put in the way of mixed marriages was to Insist that the partner gives a formal undertaking to bring up any children In the Catholic faith. The Vatican modified that ruling in 19G6. Four no years later Pope Paul decreed that longer need make such a promise. But the Irish bishops, including those in Northern Ireland where Catholics for centuries have considered their religion threatened by the Protestant majority, have.shown a marked reluctance to follow that ruling. , According to NIMMA, for instance, only one joint - Protestant-Catholi- c baptism has ever taken place in ' ' . Ireland. . 1; A Protestant minister is as likely to refuse to . marry a mixed couple as is a Catholic priest, the r NIMMA official said. The Presbyterian General Assembly, governing ' body of the main Protestant church in Scotland to which many northern Irish Protestants adhere, ruled in June that Presbyterians should not accept requirements to make them spiritually second-clas- s partners in marriages to Catholics. I'Vjj ! iJii-- i "There are too many people on both sides whose prejudices are too engrained and entrenched," a NIMMA member said. They just dont trust each oilier. The exact number of mixed marriages in Northern Ireland is not known, partly because the Catholic church will not open its marriage registers, narllv mnv prom!. jho United States, Canada and Australia to marry and settle down.

Martin Smyth, Grand Master of the Protestant Orange Order, a powerful Masonic-lik- e society, commented You cannot have a virile faith if you encourage marriage into an alien one. The NIMMA official, who declined to be identified, said: "We have to educate the clergy to the needs of h couples. There Is a crying need for pastoral care which generally has not been forthcoming. But there are some clergymen on both sides who are agitating for a more enlightened attitude by their churches. Dr. Alan Buchanan, the Protestant Church of Irelands Archbishop of Dublin, described the ecclesiastical opposition to mixed marriages as the greatest running sore that divides our community." The Rev. Adrian Hastings, a Catholic priest, warned: The danger is for personal relationships at the core of marriages to be virtually crushed by the political significance. However, despite the hardline church attitude, NIMMA officials and some churchmen agree that the real trouble for mixed couples who do marry lies in the community at large. inter-churc- Loading convenience features include an adjustable upper rack that can be moved up and down or Was 41 9 7 Now fold-dow- Distributor suggested retail price prices optional witn dealer Tmk 339 irnioo even tilted to make room for n divider in taller items; a the lower rack and high-sid- e racks providing stability and protection for dishes.
