Nostra Aetate, a 1965 declaration by Pope Paul VI, examines the Catholic Church's relationship with non-Christian religions. It affirms the shared human search for meaning and God, acknowledging positive aspects of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. The document emphasizes the shared spiritual patrimony between Christians and Jews, while condemning antisemitism and rejecting the idea that all Jews are responsible for the death of Christ. Finally, it promotes interfaith dialogue and respect for all people regardless of race, color, or religion, advocating for universal brotherhood.
