What the pope should have done, these voices say, is repudiate aspects of the foundational layers of Christian tradition, including the New Testament itself,..
Ahh... an anti-pope.
See my response to aimhigh, above.
Thanks. Upon reading the whole article, and not just the anti-Catholic rants of CINO Carroll, it is fascinating.
The chutzpah of this demand that Catholics (and other Christians) change their very religion in response to Jewish sensitivities is rarely addressed either by Christians or by Jews. What would the Anti-Defamation League say if the pope insisted that the Jews repudiate the more troubling teachings in our own Talmud—for example, about Jesus, his execution at the hand of a Jewish court and subsequent punishment in hell?
I had heard this alleged before, is this in the Talmud?
