WASHINGTON — Online antisemitism is "the new pornography," author Mary Eberstadt warned at a 60th anniversary celebration of "Nostra Aetate," where Catholic and Jewish leaders reflected on the declaration's lasting impact on interfaith reconciliation and the need to confront Jew hatred.
On Tuesday, The Philos Project and the Saint John Paul II National Shrine organized an event marking the Second Vatican Council's "Nostra Aetate" declaration, promulgated by Pope Paul VI in 1965 and serves as a "Declaration on the Relation of the Church to non-christian religions."
The declaration condemned antisemitism, repudiating the charge of collective Jewish guilt for the death of Christ, and it affirmed the spiritual connection between Christianity and Judaism, as well as God's enduring covenant with the Jewish people.
Eberstadt, author of Primal Screams: How the Sexual Revolution Created Identity Politics and senior research fellow at the Faith and Reason Institute, addressed the impact of the Hamas-led terrorist attack against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. She stated that the attack, followed by Israel launching military operations in Gaza, has "unleashed antisemitic warfare in critical corners of the West," including on college campuses and on social media.
