Archbishop Fisichella: For the West, All Religions Can Not be the Same

Tirana (kath.net/KNA) Archbishop Rino Fisichella, President of the Pontifical Council for the New Evangelization, has called the European Bishops to a profound renewal of Faith. One such mission must not be limited simply to the resurrection of a religious praxis; it is necessary to have an "analysis of the sickness, in order to prescribe an effective therapy," said Fisichella at a yearly meeting of the Council of the European Bishops Conference (CCEE) on Friday in Albanian Tirana.

The Curial Bishop warned against tendencies to erect a Europe independent of Christianity. "Christendom is a necessary starting point, in order to finally understand the history of the past of our lands", said Fisichella. A neutral position to religion is "the worst method that one can imagine. For the West, religions can't be all the same."
