The Christian-Jewish Friendship Society officially expressed its “gratitude” to the French Catholic Church for the document it issued last month on its attitude on Judaism and Jews.
The Society, which met yesterday at Aix-En-Provence in the south of France, unanimously adopted a resolution hailing the Catholic document as “finally applying the Vatican II directives and breaking with the theory of deicide which formed the basis for the unjust and cruel fate reserved for the Jews.”
