Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, and a possible candidate for successor to Benedict XVI, went to shul Shabbat yesterday. Albeit a very dark-horse candidate, and outside of the range of the Malachy prophetic vision, after all, he did say, “Six hundred thirteen commandments? I have trouble with The Ten!” As a result, we know he has a problem with “Saint Paul’s Joke” – thus is a victim of it.

“Forty-five years after Nostra Aetate [the Vatican II document that repudiated Catholic anti-Semitism and teachings of contempt”], there is a rich history of Vatican-Jewish relations and American Catholic-Jewish relations—most of which is very good. Dolan might have spent a minute on this.”
Analysts of New York synagogue affairs opined that Cardinal Dolan’s visit was part of a campaign to position the Lincoln Square Synagogue, now housed in a new building, as a cutting-edge congregation, a position it held forty years ago.
