Jean-Louis Tauran, President of the Pontifical Council for
Interreligious Dialogue, strikes a courageous evangelical blow for
whatever. The occasion is the Buddhist celebration of Vesakh. From the <a href="http://212.77.1.245/news_services/bulletin/news/22051.php?index=22051&lang=en#TESTO%20IN%20LINGUA%20INGLESE" target="_blank">Vatican website</a>:<blockquote>

clean, safe and harmonious world.</blockquote><p>His Eminence's long-awaited Pastoral Instruction "On Not Over-Feeding Goldfish" is rumored to be released in July.</p><p><br></p></div>
