USCCB committee reaffirms commitment to dialogue with Muslims
CatholicCulture.org ^ | August 25, 2014

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs has strongly reaffirmed its commitment to engage in dialogue with Muslims.

After citing texts from the Second Vatican Council and St. John Paul II on dialogue with Muslims, the committee stated that “sadly, in recent years, there has been a deliberate rejection of this call to engage in dialogue with our Muslim brothers and sisters by some in the Catholic Church and in other ecclesial families.”

These Bishops bring shame to the Catholic Church.

They promote homosexuality within the church and protect the homosexual network that has infiltrated the Catholic Church.

Now they refuse to stand up for Catholics who are being tortured and murdered for their faith. What is needed is not "dialogue". What is needed is to defend and protect Catholics who are being slaughtered.

To the USA Catholic Bishops, the time for dialouge is OVER.

Maybe one of them is vying for an end times role.

I hope they ALL go to the mid east to hold a “conference” with ISIS.

The only responsible way to dialogue with Muslims — is to share the Gospel to them.

Why don’t you lean in a little closer, USCCB? They can’t quite reach your throat.

USCCB
The US Committee for the Concealment of Boy-Buggers

Thank Christ these faux-Hibernian Communion Breakfast Comedians were not around for the Battle of Tours, Lepanto, or the Siege of Vienna.

Let these fools have their next Conference in Riyadh.

The Church used to know how to conduct a dialog with murderous cultists:

I would like them to sponsor a summit with the following topic: Can a person be a Muslim and not agree with Sharia law and the use of jihad to establish it over the entire world? Can someone be a Muslim and denounce the use of violence to take lands from other peoples and impose their religion?

Answer those questions, and then explain how you are going to create a doctrine that other Muslims will follow and which allows peaceful coexistence. Until they can do that, there is only one thing to talk to Muslims about: When are you going to convert and join humanity?

Just one more idiotic action by the USCCB. As a Catholic, I say that the majority of Bishops and Archbishops in the USCCB are without doubt the biggest bunch of idiots in the Catholic Church. They cannot even run their dioceses properly but have to stick their noses into every left wing cause as well as kiss the asses of Muslims. These jerks who are so full of themselves ought to read a few history books starting with the life of Mohamed. How about picking up and reading a copy of the Koran so as to learn that Muslims are out to destroy all of non-Muslim civilization.

The Europeans are finding out the hard way since they opened their doors and allowed Muslims to settle in their countries. Now, they may be waking up but it may be too late. As for the US, we have at a minimum a closet Muslim in the White House who is determined to bring the US to its knees. God help us.

If there is True intent to work in Good Faith, but if one side lies and does not recognize or speaks of the destruction of the other side, No Good Faith can be found, thus Discussions with such mindsets are a waist of time... If a muslim is not Standing up Against the Destruction of Human Life, the Crimes against Humanity no matter what Faith others may believe then they are in direct contrast to being worthy to have dialogue with. So here is your first tool for discerning if one is worthy to hold discussions with or to work with... Yes it is that Simple!

Yes the Enemy is muslim extremest! See it is that Simple! Now Our Representatives, Administration, Nations and Pope have all got to do the same!

The Enemy is within and until we deal with that Enemy we will Never be able to Deal with the Enemy’s outside the Nation!
