Howard University From Mere Toleration to Mutual Acceptance Discussion

I’m working on a humanities discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

On the basis of what you have learned about Judaism and from Dabru Emet and A Sacred Obligation, answer the question raised by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (now Pope-Emeritus Benedict XVI): “Can we [Jews and Christians] move from mere toleration to mutual acceptance?” Explain the difference between toleration and mutual acceptance? On the basis of Dabru Emet, how might that question be answered from a Jewish perspective? On the basis of A Sacred Obligation, how might that perspective be different from a Christian perspective? Your well-organized position paper (not less than 400 words) in which you make specific reference to both documents in the assignment on “From Mere Toleration?”
