Local Jєωs and Catholics active in interfaith relations all declared that “Nostra Aetate” led to thoroughgoing changes. “As I began learning” about this docuмent, said Elana Kahn-Oren, director of the Jєωιѕн Community Relations Council of the Milwaukee Jєωιѕн Federation, “I had my eyes opened again and again about how amazing [‘Nostra Aetate’] is.”

Because of it, Catholics have “changed their approach to how they deal with non-Catholics and specifically with Jєωs,” said Kahn-Oren, who is one of the leaders of the celebration events and a co-chair of the Catholic-Jєωιѕн Conference. Rabbi Ronald Shapiro, who recently retired from being senior rabbi at Congregation Shalom, has participated in interfaith relations work throughout his rabbinate, including in a Catholic priest-rabbi dialogue group.

 He said priests have told him that older priests ordained long before “Nostra Aetate” tended to exhibit hostility to Judaism. “When the topic of Judaism came up,” he said, “there was the old belief that Jєωs had something to do with the crucifixion of Jesus, and that Judaism was a religion that was antithetical to Catholicism.”

 “Many years after ‘Nostra Aetate,’” Shapiro continued, “and another generation had grown up, the priests said they never hear that kind of attitude any more. They don’t feel that sense of anti-Semitism. That was most impressive to me.”

Richard Lux is founding director of the Lux Center for Catholic-Jєωιѕн Studies at the Sacred Heart Seminary and School of Theology. For him, Catholic-Jєωιѕн relations has been “a 40-year passion of my life,” he said. “‘Nostra Aetate’ rejected 18 centuries of anti-Jєωιѕн teaching in the church,” he said. “It was a total transformation of church teaching.”...

Cushing, Spellman, O’Connor: The Surprising Story of How Three American Cardinals Transformed Catholic-Jєωιѕн Relations


At Vatican II Richard Cardinal Cushing and Francis Cardinal Spellman were influential in promoting the approval of Nostra Aetate, the council’s revolutionary declaration on the positive relationship of Jєωs and Catholics. Rudin also pays tribute to John Cardinal O’Connor, Spellman’s second successor in New York, for “mak[ing] real the interreligious promise” of Cushing and Spellman in the 1980s when the euphoria of the council was beginning to wane.

Rabbi Rudin traces the positive attitude of all three cardinals to the Jєωιѕн people to their earlier contacts with Jєωs. In the case of Cushing, it was a family matter, since his sister Dolly’s husband was Jєωιѕн, Richard Pearlstein. As Rudin says in a delightfully perceptive comment, Cushing made no pretense of being a theologian, but, “If God loved Dolly, as Cushing believed, and Dolly loved Richard, then God must also love his beloved sister’s husband, his people, and their religion.” Cushing’s views on religious tolerance were also shaped by his long and bitter dispute with Father Leonard Feeney, a Jesuit priest in Boston whose narrow interpretation of the dictum, “no salvation outside the church,” brought condemnation not only from Cushing, but also from the Society of Jesus and the Holy Office.

He is saying that the Holy Office was already at that time in the 1940s, infiltrated with the enemy.

I had a dream if "Nostra Aetate" was never passed.
It most likely a world at peace. No Jєωιѕн banker wars, No
Jєωιѕн Supremacy. A world that would make lots of since,
instead of being full of lies, deceptions and quicksand.
If a true Pope was elected in 1958 and read the Third Fatima
Secret to the world in 1960.
We still suffer into 2015 and the foreseeable future because of
serious errors committed over 50 years ago by the higher ups in
the Vatican.
