The Human Rights Dimension:

Dag Hammarskjold Auditorium, United Nations Head Quarters Room: CB-1B-CR01

August 11, 2015 1:15pm – 2:45pm

Laurie Cardoza Moore, Th.D., ECOSOC NGO Special Envoy to the UN for the World Council of Independent Christian Churches (WCICC), (omit “and”) President  & Producer, Proclaiming Justice to the Nations, (PJTN.org), and organizer of this Conference is presenting a panel of experts on the subject. 

The PJTN/WCICC Conference in New York on August 11 is part of PJTN’s on-going efforts to expand the awareness of Vatican II/NostraAetate. In this year, the year of the 50th anniversary of that historic declaration, we have an equally historic opportunity to reflect on the Church’s contributions to human rights. In April of 2014, a PJTN delegation was privileged to have been invited to the Vatican to discuss interfaith relations. In April, we also had the pleasure of discussing our Conference with Archbishop Auza, who has confirmed the attendance of a representative of the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the conference.

The goal of this forum on Human Rights Violations is to promote a constructive environment that prevents such negative seeds from flourishing and shares a common vehicle… faith and education. In recent times, the escalation of anti-Semitism has been a cause for great concern for many of the missions at the UN.  Pope Francis has recently been quoted as stating that promises made to the Jewish people seem to have been forgotten. “It is a question that radically involves Christians because, with the help of God, starting from the Second Vatican Council, we have discovered that the Jewish people are still, for us, the holy root from which Jesus originated. 

I too, in the friendship I have cultivated in all of these long years with our Jewish brothers, in Argentina, many times while praying have asked God, especially when I remember the terrible experience of the Shoah. What I can say, with the Apostle Paul, is that God has never stopped believing in the alliance made with Israel and that, through the terrible trials of these past centuries, the Jews have kept their faith in God.And for this, we will never be grateful enough to them, as the Church, but also as humanity at large. Persevering in their faith in God and in the alliance, they remind everyone, even us as Christians that we are always awaiting, the return of the Lord and that therefore we must remain open to Him and never take refuge in what we have already achieved.”

This forum further seeks to expose the evidence of this growing threat and present sustainable ideas and solutions to confront this worldwide movement for this and future generations. As governmental and religious leaders speak and share their facts, their focus will be on sharing lessons from successes and failures, of identifying the many facets of this scourge and how we, as Christians, can develop best practices at the UN and in our respective countries to address this ancient threat to our Jewish brethren and all people of faith.

  1. A friend of mine wrote to say:

    In 1995, 30 years after Nostra Aetate, at the Jerusalem International Book Fair, the Vatican had a display in which they brought from their libraries, tens of Jewish books that they had “collected” over the past few centuries (read: stolen, misappropriated via torture and other nice methods from our brothers).

    The display was managed by a Bishop.

    I confronted him. I asked him, had he never heard of a concept called the Ten Commandments, and amongst them, “Thou shall not steal”?

    I claimed that as all of this was obviously, admittedly, goods stolen from our brothers and sisters, we had every right, as a sovereign nation, to simply appropriate all of the stolen goods and declare the possessor of the goods Persona Non Grata.

    His answer, and this is a real quotation: “The Church only recognizes one right for Jews, and that is the right to be dead.”

    Nostra Aetate was and is NOTHING but insidious propaganda to lull unsuspecting and naïve Jews.

    I have not seen ANY reason to believe anything the present filth says.
    Quite the opposite, along with his good friend, the Angel of Peace and his continuing demand for the Tomb of David, his demand to elevate and Deify the Vatican perpetrator of the Holocaust, his continual anti-Israel statements and many others, I view the man as more dangerous than previous popes, but no less evil.

  2. Jews are not the only ones beset by Islamofluffing Quislings. This pope is a nightmare. As nuns are being gang raped in the Middle East, Francis kvetches about climate change. He openly sides with the Palis, and he preaches Marxism. He is the Catholic version of John Liebowitz Stewart.

  3. Marxist American Jews have become estranged from the G_d of Israel and are the enemy within. It’s shocking.
