Glemp’s Remarks on Auschwitz

The editorial and Archbishop Roger Mahony’s statement (“Mahony Assails Polish Prelate on Attacking Jews,” Metro, Aug. 31) are refreshing counterpoints to the outrageous statements of Cardinal Glemp. Too often we are quick to condemn words of divisiveness, but slow to praise words of healing.

Both The Times and Archbishop Mahony are to be commended for quickly repudiating words of provocation and replacing them with words of reconciliation.
