Pope Assures ADL Leaders He Is A Moral Voice Against Anti-Semitism

New York, NY, October 12, 2006 … In a private audience today with leaders from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) at the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI issued his strongest declaration against anti-Semitism since assuming the papacy, telling the visiting delegation of Jewish leaders that he would, "be a strong, constant voice against anti-Semitism."

"I will always be there for you in fighting anti-Semitism," Pope Benedict personally assured Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director, in informal words following his prepared remarks to the delegation.

"The church deplores all forms of hatred or persecution directed against the Jews and all displays of anti-Semitism at any time and from any source," the Pope said, adding that he plans to carry on the positive interfaith relationship that Jews had with Pope John Paul II.

Pope Benedict also used the meeting as an opportunity to express regret over the recent controversy surrounding his remarks on the Prophet Mohammed and Islam. He told ADL leaders that his remarks were intended as an invitation to dialogue between Islam and other religions, and that his quoting from a medieval text that characterized some of Mohammed's teachings as "evil and inhuman" was misunderstood by many in the Muslim world.

"May the Eternal One, our Father in heaven, bless every effort to eliminate from our world any misuse of religion as an excuse for hatred or violence," the Pope said. He added that the Vatican is making interfaith dialogue a top priority with an aim to, "build relationships not just of tolerance, but of authentic respect."

Mr. Foxman said: "In offering his most forceful words yet against anti-Semitism, and in expressing remorse for the reaction to his remarks about Islam, Pope Benedict has shown that he is greatly sensitive to the need for a new level of openness and dialogue among the major faiths."

Mr. Foxman, a Holocaust survivor, shared his story of being hidden by his Polish Catholic nanny, Bronislawa Kurpi, who had him baptized. Pope Benedict, in an unprecedented response, said, "You have touched my heart." A longtime Vatican expert said that it was the first time he has ever seen the Pope leave his prepared remarks to offer a personal word to a private Jewish audience.

While in Rome, the delegation of ADL leaders also met with Cardinal Walter Kasper, the president for the Commission for Religious Relations with the Jews, and Father Norbert Hoffman, the secretary of the Vatican's Commission for Relations with Judaism. Cardinal Kasper discussed the need for fostering programs to teach the lessons of Nostra Aetate, the landmark document that repudiated the centuries-old "deicide" charge against all Jews, stressed the religious bond shared by Jews and Catholics, and reaffirmed the eternal covenant between God and the People of Israel.

"Wrong and unjust interpretations of the New Testament relating to the Jewish people and their supposed guilt in Christ's death..."

"Supposed" guilt? The Talmud itself, in Sanhedrin 43a, admits that the Jewish leadership had Christ killed. In fact, Sanhedrin 43a celebrates Christ's execution!

John Paul II: The Judas of Our Time

http://www.revisionisthistory.org/christian1.html

stopped too soon.....

"....Historic Catholicism has always believed in the "supposed guilt" of the Judaic leadership in the killing of the Lord Jesus, and the killing of the prophets, and that the Jewish leadership were contrary to all men. That incidentally is not an "interpretation," it's a direct quote from Sacred Scripture (I Thessalonians 2:14-15), which John Paul II negated and betrayed.

John Paul II made constant reference to the Nazi "Holocaust." Yet as a Pole, he knew very well that a disproportionate number of the perpetrators of an unsung holocaust against Polish Christians had been Judaic Communists....."

Spent some time on the Victims of Communism Memorial today. Interesting. The groundbreaking ceremony acts as if it was "over there" someplace, and totally ignores that Judaic Communism controls us here in America today. Witness Chertoff's ex-KGB and ex-Stasi Chiefs, Bush's destruction of "that G-d piece of paper", detentions, tribunals, torture, and concentration camps for American dissenters, and deportation of "holocaust-deniers", etc. It was also interesting to note that they are having trouble raising $200 million for a memorial, although "THE Holocaust Memorial" was funded and completed long ago, and even though US taxpayers are gifting ISRAEL with $15 million of their tax dollars PER DAY! Cut that out, and they could have the money to build the Victims of Communism [mostly Christian] Memorial in less than 2 years. Or cut out the $9 Billion for a fence to protect ISRAEL, since our spit-in-the-bucket phony campaign promise of $1.5 Billion to protect AMERICA from the invasion is a sham that will not happen.

the truth will set you free, or make you crazy!!
