Catholics are Jews and we must become better Jews?

A well known blogger Priest calls for us Catholics to be better Jews:

ABS responded but it prolly will not be approved:


Pope Pius XI is rarely quoted in context. Here is what he said:


Mark well that in the Catholic Mass, Abraham is our Patriarch and forefather. Anti-Semitism is incompatible with the lofty thought which that fact expresses. It is a movement with which we Christians can have nothing to do. No, no, I say to you it is impossible for a Christian to take part in anti-Semitism. It is inadmissible. Through Christ and in Christ we are the spiritual progeny of Abraham. Spiritually, we [Christians] are all Semites

And, of course, Jesus told those who appealed to racialism as their bond of righteousness (the descendants of Abraham) that because they refused to accept Him as Messiah, they were the children of the Devil.

John 8:

The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?
23
 
And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.
24
 
Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.
25
 
They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.
26
 
Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.
27
 
And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
28
 
Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
29
 
And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
30
 
When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31
 
Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32
 
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33
 
They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34
 
Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
35
 
Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.
36
 
If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37
 
I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38
 
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.
39
 
They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.
40
 
But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.
41
 
You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.
42
 
Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:
43
 
Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.

44
 
You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.

ABS went on to note that the suggested reading of Pope Benedict's Trilogy of Jesus of Nazareth accused Matthew 27:25 of being in error.

That is wicked eisegesis as the Church teaches that to accuse an Evangelist of error is not acceptable but it does raise the question as to what other parts of The New Testament does the former Pope think are errors.
