ROME, January 10, 2020 (LifeSiteNews)
— A northern Italian bishop refused to openly profess the Nicene Creed
on the Solemnity of the Epiphany because he said he didn’t want to
offend the Orthodox, Waldensians, and unbelievers who were present in
the congregation.
Bishop Derio Olivero of the Piedmontese diocese of Pinerolo announced
at the end of his homily on January 6 that the profession of the Creed
would be replaced with a moment of silence so that everyone could
quietly recite their own beliefs.
Addressing Catholic faithful, representatives of other religious
traditions, and civic authorities at what was called the “Mass of the
Peoples,” Bishop Olivero said, “Since there are also non-believers,
everyone will say it in silence. Those who believe can say it and those
who do not believe or are of other faiths will say in silence the
reasons for their belief.”
