Cardinal Burke Breaks Ranks

We have heard many disturbing statements in recent years made by Catholic clerics, from bishops and cardinals right up to Pope Francis, who seem to believe that Islam is a religion like any other, that criticism of Islam is unjustified and based on the motiveless malignity of “Islamophobia,” and that the main duty of Catholics with respect to Muslims is not to challenge or confront them both as to their ideology and as to the many acts of Muslim terrorism, but to engage, rather, in endless Catholic-Muslim Dialogue. Ever since the Second Vatican Council, the Church has had an ill-considered mandate to engage in “dialogue” with Muslims, as the Committee for Ecumenical and Religious Affairs of the United States Conference of Bishops has stated.

Pope John Paul II would argue that muzzies aren't peaceful. One shot him! (PJPII eventually forgave Agca) Doesn't mean I have!

The main theme of Vatican II was dialogue. Dialogue with Protestants. Dialogue with Jews. Dialogue with Mohammedans. But NO dialogue with Catholics in the pews. Shove change down their throats and if they rebel, kick them out.

What it has gotten Catholics is a bastardized pile of garbage that changes on a whim.

The Catholic church now has its Neville Chamberlain in Pope Francis who will wave pieces of paper around and proclaim peace in our time.

Whoopeee!

The rcc would be well advised to not only dump this pope but to also change the ccc where it notes Catholics and Muslims worship the same God.
