CWN Editor's Note: Under the auspices of the Pontifical Academy for Life, Catholic, Jewish, and Muslim professors at the Catholic University of Argentina signed the Declaration of the Abrahamic Religions: Elderly Persons in Contemporary Society and their Protection.
“Our society looks down on old age, linking it with the past and the obsolete, but old age is the future for all of us,” the signatories concluded. “To honor the elderly today is to prepare the future dignity with which we aspire to be treated.”
