Catholic Church equates anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism
This is for all you good Catholics out there, and for Anti. Faisal wonât accept the source as valid anyway. Hat-tip LGFThe Catholic Church condemned anti-Zionism as a cover for anti-Semitism by means of a joint statement issued by a forum of Catholic-Jewish intellectuals this week. The announcement was made at a gathering of religious, academic and other leading Jewish and Catholic figures in Buenos Aires. "We oppose anti-Semitism in any way and form, including anti-Zionism that has become of late a manifestation of anti-Semitism," the statement said. This is the first time that anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism have been equated by the Catholic Church. The statement also includes a stern condemnation of terrorism, particularly terror in the name of faith. "Terror is a sin against man and against God. Fundamentalist terrorism in the name of God has no justification and cannot be justified." I guess this means Kerry no longer considers Arafat to be a statesman? Posted by: trailing wife 2004-07-09 |
