Statement from Catholic Bishops’ Conference on Holocaust Memorial Day

Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales
Royaume-Uni (2009/01/27)

A spokesperson from the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales issued the following statement on Holocaust Memorial Day:

“The views of one of the bishops of SSPX in denying the reality of the Holocaust are totally unacceptable. His personal positions do not affect in any way the position of the Church’s most authoritative document on this dialogue, "Nostra Aetate," which deplores any type of anti-Semitism.

“Today on Holocaust Memorial Day we remember the death of six million Jews and follow Pope Benedict XVI in deploring anti-Semitism in all its forms. We call on all Roman Catholics to do the same.”
