Catholic-Muslim dialogue opens to support American Muslims
Crux News ^ | January 10, 2017 | Jame Martone

The dialogue stems from concerns expressed by U.S. bishops in the wake of “a serious uptick in violence against American Muslims … to make sure that they are sensitive to what is going on in the (Muslim) communities,” said Anthony Cirelli, associate director of the Secretariat for Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

It wasn’t enough for the Catholic Church to encourage the flooding of our country with illegal aliens from south of the border.
Now they want to assist muslims in taking over.

Make no mistake, muslims are not here to assimilate, they are here to dominate. Islam means submission. They intend for all of us to submit. Or die.
It is in their book.
Mad Mo made it so.

Is this dialect going to include the ceasing of financial support for terrorist in the middle east from mosques in the US, and, also, the ceasing of creating terrorist training camps in the US? Is this dialect going to include how Muslims are expected to conform to American law and discontinue the efforts toward the overbearing actions of Sharia law, not used in this country to include harming people in the name of their religion? And is this dialect going to establish that they do not have a community as a religion, they live in a community that is within the borders of this country and it will not be controlled by a single entity other than US law?

If it is, that’s a start.

We know how they treat infidels, and that their god is not God. Do we approve of pagans and their rites of human sacrifice? If so, we’re no longer Christians.

It would be nice if they had the excuse of using mind-altering drugs, but they don’t.

And in other news, Muslims are slaughtering Christians in the Middle East to the point of extinction. These “dialogues” are always one way streets.

Cirelli cited statistics documenting a higher number of anti-Muslim activities nationwide as well as a recent study by The Bridge Initiative, a Georgetown University research project on Islamophobia, showing that Catholics who regularly obtained information from Catholic media were more likely to unfavorably view Muslims than those who did not.

Where and what are these "anti-Muslim activities" being perpetrated by Catholics, Cirelli?

The creation of the dialogue was motivated by the call of “Nostra Aetate,” the Second Vatican Council’s declaration on the relations with non-Christian religions.

Always Vatican II.
