Christians, Jews and Politics

During centuries Jews and Christians have been separated by their beliefs, and although sacred texts come from the same sources, indeed, there is a separation rooted the approach and interpretation of faith and values. After the Holocaust, some researchers point fingers to Eugenio Paccelli (Pope Pio XII) who was supposed to support Hitler’s plans for the Final Solution, through non intervention in politics, in exchange for protection to the Catholic Church powers. With all these differences that might go from anti-Semitism to rational or mystical interpretations, we are living in a world were Islam is present more than ever, and in fact bringing crisis and threats to Israel. What’s next? Will Jews and Christians take a different approach and solve old differences?
