Great article in the LA Times about the 40th anniverary of Nostra Aetate. The idea, as JPII said, that Jews are the elder brothers to Christians and 20 centuries of misudnderstandings and at times, mutual hatred, are over is indeed Good News.
Commemorative events for the 40th anniversary are being held throughout the world, including a public one at 7:30 tonight at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in downtown Los Angeles. Among the scheduled speakers are Rabbi Michael A. Signer, a professor of Jewish thought and culture at the University of Notre Dame and director of its Holocaust Project; Cardinal Roger M. Mahony of Los Angeles; and Cardinal William Keeler of Baltimore, a member of the Vatican’s Commission for Religious Relations with the Jews and moderator for Catholic-Jewish Relations at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
I hope posters on the Cathoic Forums all agree that the healing of Jewish/Catholic relations are a sign of hope in a dark world.
