“Whoever knows the Old and New Testaments, and then reads the Koran,” wrote Pope Saint John-Paul II in Crossing The Threshold Of Hope, “clearly sees the process by which it completely reduces Divine Revelation” (italics in the original).

And while it is true, as the pope goes on to say, that among the “most beautiful names in the human language are given to the God of the Koran,” it cannot finally satisfy because such a God, “is ultimately a God outside of the world, a God who is only Majesty, never Emmanuel, God-with-us.Islam is not a religion of redemption” (again, italics in the original).

This goes into my next Parish Newsletter.

The generations before us invented nuclear weapons to destroy suicidal death cults. Islam is easy to stop, but the moral fortitude to do so is currently out of our reach of this narcissistic society.
