Follow-up to
This Thread. The conference turned out to be far more balanced and favorable to Pius than initially reported. Surprise!

Note that at this distinguished and balanced gathering the hack Cornwell never showed his face.

How to Win Friends and Influence People Richard Rubinstein style: tell them their faith is responsible for mass murder. Guess hundreds of millions of fanatical Muslims screaming for his head isn't exciting enough for Professor Rubinstein, he wants to make sure another major faith is ticked at him.

I doubt that any Ivy league university is capable of such a conference.

Mit Brennender Sorge. 1937 Encyclical of Pope Pius XI, written by Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli who would go on to become Pope Pius XII.

Well, I'll weigh in once, then let you guys continue your discussion, but Pius XII did NOT want Israel to be settled back into their Biblical Homeland after WWII ended.
Here is a LINK to the historical document, written by Pius XII's OFFICIAL REPRESENTATIVE to President Roosevelt, urging Roosevelt to oppose the creation of Israel, or failing that, to re-settle the Jews into some OTHER piece of land OTHER than the one God GAVE ISRAEL FOREVER.
My position is that I cannot see how someone, who considers themselves a Christian, would oppose the clearly written Will of God that Israel was to posess the land He promised to Abraham FOREVER.
If Roosevelt had acceeded to Pius's will and re-settled Israel into some random piece of land in, say, Morroco or Tunisia, it would have provided Bible critics with all the ammo they needed to discredit God's Holy Word, and would have provided a rationale to disregard the Holy Bible.

It is so difficult to understand the coptic Catholicism let alone this praise for such disgusting behavior by our priests. There can be no praise for such.

Thanks for posting this. I received the e-mail newsletter from Inside the Vatican today. I was glad to see that the conference was more balanced than AP's coverage of it was.
