...fellow pilgrims at Mariazell. "This attitude of resignation with regard to truth lies at the heart of the crisis of the West. If truth does not exist for man, then neither can he ultimately distinguish between good and evil." He acknowledged legitimate fears that "faith in the truth might entail intolerance," but insisted that the Catholic Church espouses not a threatening truth, but one that he says "proves itself in love. It is never our property, never our product, just as love can never be produced, but only received and handed on as a gift...

A real sensitivity for other cultures, however, would entail discerning differences, perhaps even more than finding common ground. People who truly respect Islam, for instance, should be able to understand and fear the signs sent by Mahmoud Ahmedinejad’s millennial behavior: What is not considerate of Islam is to assume that those of its adherents whose theology brooks no separation of civil and religious authority will be motivated by the same incentives that...
