Catholic bishops in Japan said today they want an immediate end to nuclear power generation.

During a press conference at Motoderakoji Cathedral in Sendai City, they launched a document entitled End Nuclear Energy Now: Coming to terms with the tragic disaster of the Fukushima Daiichi accident.

Five bishops were present in person as representatives of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Japan (CBCJ). They addressed their message to “all those living in Japan.”

In 2001, the CBCJ issued a publication which touched on the same subject. They wrote of nuclear power plants: “In order to avoid tragedy, we must develop safe alternative means of producing energy.”

3. The Church takes pretty progressive stands on a lot of issues.

What gets most of the attention is their stand on abortion and lack of action on sexual abuse by some clergy, much like Penn State and many other institutions.
