Chess Holds Deep Wisdoms Of The People. It Is Truly An Image Of Life, The Reflection Of Human Fate That Has Shown Us The Earthly Way Of Suffering In Darkness And Permanent Shortage Of Time.

Once Again, Through Myself, The Church, In The Words Of The Well-known Declaration Nostra Aetate, 'deplores The Hatred, Persecutions And Displays Of Anti-semitism Directed Against The Jews At Any Time And By Anyone.' I Repeat, 'by Anyone.'

Love Is A Constant Challenge, Thrown To Us By God.
