"Religious Freedom: The Path to Peace” is Pope’s Theme for World Day of Peace, January 1, 2011


I found this on the Vatican Radio website and the Vatican website: "In many parts of the world there exist various forms of restrictions or denials of religious freedom, from discrimination and marginalization based on religion, to acts of violence against religious minorities. Religious freedom is rooted in the equal and inherent dignity of man, it is oriented toward the search for unchangeable truth, and thus can rightly be presented as the freedom of freedoms."

See the Vatican website for the full text of the Pope’s message to be posted soon (http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/messages/peace/index_en.htm).

Or read more at the Vatican Radio website (http://storico.radiovaticana.org/en1/storico/2010-07/407824_pope_picks_religious_freedom_as_theme_for_2011_peace_message.html).
