“Christians should perhaps learn from their Jewish brethren never to allow those living in freedom to forget the victims of persecution.” Cardinal John Heenan declared yesterday in a sermon at Westminster Cathedral. With exiled Hungarian Cardinal Mindszenty at his side, Cardinal Heenan said: “We who live in liberty must not rest while men and women of any religion are persecuted. If world communism is earnest about spreading peace let it cease from persecution.”
