Nostra Aetate - In Our Time

11 responsibility for the common good. I think that we will not be judged about our religion but about the question: “What did you do for the needs of justice in the world? What did you do for the hungry in the world? What did you do for the refugees, for the poor, the needy? What did you do for peace in the world? What have you done for the ecological needs of our planet?” This is our common responsibility and about this common responsibility, we have not only to talk but to work together. And I again quote Nostra Aetate in its last article: “We cannot truly call on God, the Father of all, if we refuse to treat in a brotherly way any man, created as he is in the image of God. Man’s relation to God the Father and his relation to men his brothers are so linked together that Scripture says: “He who does not love does not know God.” My dear friends, these three reasons are, I think, sufficient to support the efforts of KAICIID in the pro- motion of intercultural and interreligious dialogue. We are all neighbours belonging to one human family. We are all gifted with a religious sense and, with our reli- gious experiences, we can share, we can learn from each other and we can deepen in spirituality together. And finally, we have a common responsibility, and about this responsibility we have to talk and to work together. Thank you.
