> Why would the AP state that he’s trying to merge religions? <
I agree. I would not trust anything that the AP, CNN, etc. might say in the matter. But what about Fox or some other semi-conservative national site? They have nothing that links Francis to Chrislam (which is a real thing, by the way).
But there are many reports that Francis has been “building bridges” to Islam. As I’m sure you will agree, he’s actually surrendering to Islam. The pope is making all the concessions. The Muslims are making none.
So I do know Francis is going down the wrong road. What I am questioning is the article’s contention that Francis actually believes in Chrislam - that Christianity and Islam should be merged into one single religion.
(And why am I questioning it in the first place? It’s because radical Islam is a very great threat. We all must stand together against it. But incorrect articles tend to divide us instead of unite us.)
