After arson recently destroyed a Muslim community's mosque in Bellevue, Wash., a neighboring LDS church opened its doors, reports KOMO 4 TV in Seattle.

The Bellevue Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints offered use of a large room that was formerly a classroom so members of the Islamic Center of Eastside could have a place to pray until they find a new space.

“It’s really very simple,” Church Director of Public Affairs Gordon Wilson told KOMO 4 TV. “It’s just neighbors helping neighbors. Jesus said, ‘Love your neighbor.’ They’re right next door. How can it be more obvious than that?”

They think the Muslims will turn to each other and say, "Wow, these followers of Jesus are truly kind and good... maybe there is something about them we don't realize?"

What Muslims will actually turn to each other and say is, "Allah always finds a way to teach the infidel the importance of his Followers."

They’re gonna love the foot washing and nasal phlegm hacked up all over their bathrooms and that’s just the beginning.

Now that it’s a house of Muslim worship, it is forever.

Brain dead fools following an insane theology.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t Joseph Smith an admirer of Mohammed?

Hey, just convert them Mormons, then convert the LDS Temple to a Mosque and keep the Mosque rebuild money to buy goats!

All it would require is a little "Islamic Persuasion".

Jesus also came from a long line of teachings against idol worship or praying to any gods other than the one true Father. He also taught that you can tell a tree from its fruits. By the Jesus fruits test, Allah is Satan

To love one’s neighbor, one must bring them to Christ. Nothing else matters. An eternity in hell is the destination for those who do not come to Him. Ten billion years from now no one will care about anything in hell, except why didn’t they tell me about Jesus, why didn’t they pray for me, they must have hated me.

Know thine enemies. Don’t accommodate them. Love thy neighbor but make sure they don’t want to kill you before you get too cozy.

Do the Mormons understand that any other church they worship in and recite the Koran and especially the shahada-— then that property is forever theirs-— islamic. This is sharia law. Mormons had better learn this. They tried to do this at the Duke University Trinity Chapel— and the alumni, the rich ones— told them— you do and we withdraw our support funds.

Moon god worshipers meet space traveling god worshipers sounds like one big happy hell bound family gathering to me.

After their prayers, they’ll come out and kill their infidel hosts.
