The Pontifical Council for Inter-religious Dialogue said, "Each religion, with its respective sacred books, places of worship and symbols, has the right to respect and protection. We are speaking about the respect to be accorded the dignity of the person who is an adherent of that religion and his/her free choice in religious matters." Sept. 2010


Latin English
M. Pomponius praetor senatum consuluit. M. Pomponius praetor consulted the Senate.
Quod verba facta sunt de philosophis et de rhetoribus, de ea re ita censuerunt: Whereas a report was made concerning philosophers and rhetoricians, the senators proposed as follows in regard to the said matter:
ut M. Pomponius praetor animadverteret curaretque, uti ei e republica fideque sua videretur, uti Romae ne essent. M. Pomponius praetor shall take measures and shall provide that no philosophers or rhetoricians shall dwell in Rome, if it appears to him to be in the public interest and in accordance with his own good faith.
