CWN Editor's Note: Addressing his confrères, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna, president of the Italian Episcopal Conference, emphasized the need for peace.

“Peace is not a utopia for the naïve, but is the vocation of Italy, of Europe, and of every human society worthy of the name,” Cardinal Zuppi said at the opening of a three-day meeting of leaders of the episcopal conference. “Educating for peace today means forming people who know how to get out of the walls of polarization, who understand that Christianity asks for fidelity to the commandment of love. “
