Prince El Hassan Congratulates Christians in Jordan on the Occasion of
Christmas
Amman, Dec. 26 (Petra) -- HRH Prince El Hassan bin Talal, on Saturday
congratulated Christians in Jordan on the occasion of Christmas.
During his meeting today at the Armenian Orthodox Church with heads of
churches and representatives of Christian denominations in the
Kingdom, HRH called for drawing hope through emphasizing common
religious and human ethics, morals and values; stressing the need to
have a common position towards religious freedom and the valuable
meanings which reflect the impact of religion on culture.
"Let's talk about the enclosure of thought, love and generosity. Let's
talk about communication in terms of knowledge and love for millions
of people" the prince said.
Prince El Hassan pointed out that this region of the world is invited,
in 2012, to participate in a very important dialogue under the General
Assembly of the United Nations on the global commons; hoping that
Arabs become more influential in the introduction of religion and
culture, and mutual influence between them, into the definition of the
Millennium Development Goals in its second phase which begins in 2015.
Prince El Hassan said that we are called upon today to think about the
future of life, not only in terms of survival; calling for a
faith-based approach which activates intellectual generosity and the
social role of various religious and intellectual institutions.
"We have to revive the enlightment of wisdom and love which started,
historically, in the Arab region" HRH stressed.
