Joint statement on the 80th anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing
Bishops and cardinals of Japan, U.S. and Korea release a joint statement on the 80th commemoration of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
 
On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the atomic bombings and the end of World War II, we, the undersigned representatives of atomic bomb survivor organizations, cardinals, archbishops, and bishops of the Catholic Church in the United States, South Korea, and Japan, have gathered in Hiroshima to remember the victims of World War II, to honor the memory of those who endured unimaginable suffering caused by the atomic bombings, including those from the Korean Peninsula and other regions of Asia, and to pray that such a tragedy will never be repeated. We are pleased that the longstanding efforts of the Japan Confederation of A- and H-Bomb Sufferers Organizations (Nihon Hidankyo) have been prominently recognized with last year’s Nobel Peace Prize. We pray that the earnest wishes of the aging atomic bomb survivors for world peace and the elimination of nuclear weapons reach and move people around the world.

Washington bishops defend seal of confession in federal court. The Catholic bishops of Washington state and a group of priests were in federal court asking the court to block a new state law that forces priests to face jail time unless they break the sacred seal of confession. The law at issue in Etienne v. Ferguson, set to take effect on July 27th, requires clergy to report abuse if shared within the sacred confines of the confessional. WilmerHale and co-counsel Becket and First Liberty Institute represent the lead plaintiffs Archbishop Paul D. Etienne, Bishop Joseph J. Tyson, and Bishop Thomas A. Daly, who filed an initial lawsuit earlier this summer. Click here to read the full press release.
