(For SIR correspondent in Budapest) "Undoubtedly, language is an essential element for media communication, too, and the Church should take great care of it. However, contents are even more important, and the Church should worry about them, and should pledge in relation to them. Moreover, one should not lose heart in the current language mixture. It is necessary to be present with the intelligence and love of Apostle Paul, who addressed all men indistinctly. Following his example, communication is the other name for mission today, that is, of commitment to announce the Gospel until the ultimate borders of the earth, and with the new technologies, too". Card. Peter Erdõ, president of the Council of European Bishops’ Conferences thus answered the question of a journalist during the press conference taking place in Budapest this morning, to present the plenary assembly of CCEE itself, which is taking place in Hungary until October 3rd. "It is necessary added the cardinal to bring thought back into the communication mechanism, because too often rationalism is placed at the borders, leaving emotionalism prevail. In this context, the text written as space for thought has to be recovered, and the year of the Bible is an extraordinary opportunity in this perspective, to recover also the real meaning of the message of the Church (among thousands of messages)".
