Vatican City, Mar 5, 2006 / 22:00 pm
Participants at a high-level Catholic-Jewish meeting said they would like to involve Islam in a dialogue to help promote world peace and to defend life, from conception to natural death.
The Great Rabbinate of Israel for relations with the Catholic Church met with the Bilateral Commission of the Holy See for religious relations with Judaism at the Vatican last week, reported AGI.
Participants said they believe religion has a role to play in resolving conflicts and tensions. They also condemned all violence, especially that carried out in the name of religion, and affirmed that all life is a divine gift to be respected and preserved.
