A €43.5 million project to construct a building where Jews, Muslims and Christians can pray together under one roof in the center of Berlin moved a step closer on Tuesday.

Called the House of One, the building would become the first in the world built together by the three religions to pray in. It will house a church, synagogue and a mosque. …

Muslim blow it up...Jews and Christians are killed, Muslims go to heaven. 10/10 win/win!

[Gay State Conservative]

I don't have any strong desire to pray in a synagogue any more than a Jew wishes to pray in a church.As for praying with moslems....not in a million years.

This REALLY will not work for Orthodox—for similar reasons!!!!

I pray to St. Justin of Celje (celebrated on June 1) nearly every day. He was VERY anti-ecumenical and anti-”interfaith”.

We should love and pray for people of other faiths (or of none) but NOT worship in a “House of One”!!!!

Ok, I'll play their silly game. Why?

Why on earth would you do such a thing? There is no logical reason unless you are in a place where space is at a premium (ie submarine) and you have to do all your religious observances in one space separated by time.

Oh yeah, that’ll work well.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Ohh, that sounds like it will be a peaceful place. /S

Muzzies are at their most agitated after prayers and sermons.

“From the Bible to the Koran
Revelation in Jerusalem
Shalom salamalekoum
You can see Christians, Jews, and Muslims
Living together and praying amen
Let’s gives thanks and praises....

I think even Alpha Blondy is probably having second thoughts about this idea.

[Snickering Hound]

Maybe Germany has no idea which faith will be strapping on suicide bomb vests to kill members of the other 2 faiths...

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Never use their Muslim barber shop
when you tell them just a little off the top
they never know when to stop.

... Ok, this just gets stranger. This is a crowd funded building; they intend on raising 45 million euros to cover the foundation of the existing church at the location and then above, build three ‘temples’ with a large connecting hall / shared space (with a dome above it... Wonder why the dome... Couldn't be there for any particular reason...)

Of the funds required, they've raised a whole 3,600 euros. And what this story is all about is drawing more people to come donate; one ‘brick’ of the building is 10 euros ($13.65 dollars.)

So, 360 bricks out of the required 4,300,000 bricks. (0.01 percent.)

[Junk Silver]

“one ‘brick’ of the building is 10 euros ($13.65 dollars.)”

Have they said how much it is to buy one brick of plastic explosive?

[Dilbert San Diego]

I think you have to be naive to think this will work.

[kingu]

I think the bricks of explosives are supplied free, so long as the targets are infidels.

Wonder how long it will be before the German government steps in and foots the bill for this ‘crowd funded building.’

Amen to that, brother!

[Carriage Hill]

This won’t go or end well.

[BenLurkin]

I don’t think it will work.
