To the Catholics who babble ecumenical nonsense, saying that the Koran is "a book of peace," here is what a great Saint has to say about it. If you feel you know better than he, God help you:
"It would take too long to tell you all the stories about this famous impostor...Mohamed's religion consists of a monstrous mixture of Judaism, Paganism and Christianity. Mohamed propagated his religion, not through miracles or persuasive words, but through the force of arms. [It is] a religion that favors every sort of licentiousness and which, in a short time, allowed Mohamed to become the leader of a troop of brigands. Along with them he raided the countries of the East and conquered the people, not by introducing the Truth, not by miracles or prophecy; but for one reason only: to raise his sword over the heads of the conquered shouting: Believe or die!" -- St. John Bosco (1815-1888)
Don Bosco, pray for us.

Islam is worse than a false religion. It is Satan worship.
Believe or Die !
Ain’t changed the message much .
I like this man, now that I have heard of him and read some of his words.
Blaise Pascal also had a clear sighted view of “Mahomet”. He pointed out that Jesus was pre-announced, not so Mahomet. I found this to be brilliant:
“It is not by that which is obscure in Mahomet, and which may be interpreted in a mysterious sense, that I would have him judged, but by what is clear, as his paradise and the rest. In that he is ridiculous. And since what is clear is ridiculous, it is not right to take his obscurities for mysteries.
It is not the same with the Scripture. I agree that there are in it obscurities as strange as those of Mahomet; but there are admirably clear passages, and the prophecies are manifestly fulfilled. The cases are therefore not on a par. We must not confound, and put on one level things which only resemble each other in their obscurity, and not in the clearness, which requires us to reverence the obscurities.”—Pensees 597
This is how Catholics, saints, popes spoke about Mahomet and his diabolical religion before Vatican II, before the beginnings of the pseudo-religion of false ecumenism.
