  • Archbishop Rowan Williams Address to the Synod of Bishops
    Archbishop Rowan Williams Address to the Synod of Bishops "To be Fully Human is to be Recreated in the Image of Christ's Humanity" VATICAN CITY, OCT. 11, 2012 (Zenit.org).- Here is the text of His Grace Dr. Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury and Primate of All England and the Anglican Communion, during his address to the Synod of Bishops. * * * Your Holiness, Reverend Fathers, brothers and sisters in Christ - dear Friends 1. I am deeply honored by the Holy Father's invitation to speak in this gathering: as the Psalmist says, “Ecce quam bonum et quam jucundum habitare fratres in unum”. The gathering of bishops in Synod for the good of all Christ's people is one of those disciplines that sustain the health of Christ's Church. And today especially we cannot forget that great gathering of “fratres in unum” that was the Second Vatican Council, which did so much for the health of the Church and helped the Church to recover so much of the energy needed to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ effectively in our age. For so many of my own generation, even beyond the boundaries of the Roman Catholic Church, that Council was a sign of great promise, a sign that the Church was strong enough to ask itself some demanding questions about whether its culture and structures were adequate to the task of sharing the Gospel with the complex, often rebellious, always restless mind of the modern world. 2. The Council was, in so many ways, a rediscovery of evangelistic concern and passion, focused not only on the renewal of the Church's own life but on its credibility in the world.

LADB Article Id: 79316 ISSN: 1054-8890 Catholic Bishops Challenge President Enrique Peña Nieto to Provide Answers on Major Reforms by Carlos Navarro Category/Department: Meixco Published: 2014-05-28 The Roman Catholic hierarchy has traditionally enjoyed a cozy relationship with the federal government, whether the presidency was in the hands of the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) or the Partido Acción Nacional (PAN). While the prelates have not always agreed with the decisions of the executive branch, they have generally been reluctant to criticize the president. There were a few exceptions, including the late Bishop Samuel Ruiz García and Bishop Raúl Vera López, who frequently spoke out against government policies that hurt the poor (SourceMex, Jan. 19, 2000, and Jan. 26, 2011). Some Catholic bishops clashed with the PRI-led governments on other issues, including a controversy on the alleged role of the Catholic Church in supporting criminal organizations (SourceMex, April 23, 2008).

  • St. Gallen, 12. Srpna 2014 Excelence, Situace Křesťanů a Jiných
    St. Gallen, 12. srpna 2014 Excelence, situace křesťanů a jiných náboženských menšin v Iráku je zcela nepřijatelná. Naléhavá potřeba bránit a chránit lidská práva těchto lidí a přežití jejich komunit je evidentní. Mezinárodní společenství je povolané k tomu, aby ukončilo tuto tragédii všemi dostupnými legitimními prostředky. My, evropští biskupové, vyjadřujeme také pocity našich věřících a žádáme Radu bezpečnosti, aby učinila rozhodnutí, která ukončí tyto hrozné skutky, při nichž tisíce lidí umírají nebo jsou zabíjeny či nuceny opustit vlastní domovy z důvodu náboženské příslušnosti. Generální sekretář OSN a velká část světového veřejného mínění již jasně odsoudili to, co se odehrává v severním Iráku. Je bezpodmínečně nutné přijmout konkrétní humanitární opatření a odpovědět tak na zoufalou situaci dětí, žen, starých lidí a mnoha dalších osob, které ztratily všechno, aby utekly před smrtí, a nyní se nachází v nebezpečí úmrtí hlady a žízní. V posledních letech se mnoho pokročilo v porozumění zodpovědnosti mezinárodního společenství v oblasti ochrany lidských práv, zejména práva na život nevinných lidí a práva na bezpečí. Doufáme, že i v tomto případě bude mezinárodní společenství schopné odpovědět rychlou pomocí mnoha uprchlíkům a zajistit jim možnost bezpečně se vrátit do svých měst a domů. Tragédie, k níž dochází na severu Iráku, nejen ohrožuje multikulturní soužití, jež je nedílnou součástí našeho globalizovaného světa. Představuje také riziko pro křesťany v zemi, kde žijí od samých počátků křesťanství a kde je jejich přítomnost oceňovaná a potřebná pro mír na místní i světové úrovni. S touto výzvou se připojujeme k Svatému otci, papeži Františkovi, který v posledních dnech bez přestání vyzýval mezinárodní společenství, aby se mobilizovalo a poskytlo konkrétní pomoc lidem v nebezpečí, a aby učinilo vše pro zastavení tohoto pekelného kruhu násilí.
