5. We cannot truly pray to God the Father of all if we treat any people in other than brotherly fashion, for all men are created in God's image. Man's relation to God the Father and man's relation to his. fellowmen are so dependent on each other that the Scripture says "he who does not love. does not know God" (I Jn. 4:8). There is no basis therefore, either in theory or in practice for any discrimination between individual and individual, or between people and people arising either from human dignity or from the rights which flow from it. Therefore, the Church reproves, as foreign to the mind of Christ, any discrimination against people or any harassment of them on the basis of their race, color, condition in life or religion. Accordingly, following, the footsteps of the holy apostles Peter and Paul, the sacred Council earnestly begs the Christian faithful to "conduct themselves well among the Gentiles" (I Pet. 2:12) and if possible, as far as depends on them, to be at peace with all men (cf. Rom 12:18 ) and in that way to be true sons of the Father who is in heaven (cf. Mt. 5:45).
Excellent post. Is that the trampling of a thousand feet I hear, rushing to cooperate with these wise admonitions? No, sorry, it's just the wind. However, you tried, and for that, I commend you.
Which, in the light of what you are responding to, and more , examples how Rome can contradict itself.
