Our sufferings today are the prelude of those you, Europeans and Western Christians, will also suffer in the near future. I lost my diocese. The physical setting of my apostolate has been occupied by Islamic radicals who want us converted or dead. But my community is still alive.
Please, try to understand us. Your liberal and democratic principles are worth nothing here. You must consider again our reality in the Middle East, because you are welcoming in your countries an ever growing number of Muslims. Also you are in danger. You must take strong and courageous decisions, even at the cost of contradicting your principles. You think all men are equal, but that is not true: Islam does not say that all men are equal. Your values are not their values. If you do not understand this soon enough, you will become the victims of the enemy you have welcomed in your home.

Capital letters are in our language for a reason. Is there any reason why you don’t use them with any regularity?
What a petty and false response. You really showed with that quip you’re not worth anyone’s time here.
Look at the damn link and see for yourself that the quote is verbatim, missing caps and all.
Best line: In the Sistine Chapel the angels are pointing to the gelato shop! Lol.
The reason the gelato is SO good is that the Italians use WAY TOO MUCH BUTTER FAT.
Salt, sugar and FAT not only make food taste good, they make food TASTE.
THANKS for the limone morning smile you game me. :o)
My apologies.
John pinette is great comedian. He died in May 2014. Funny. Cheers!
Sigh, I have been BEHIND in my watching of comedians.
How did Pinette die?
Heart attack.
We should seriously listen and heed the advice this bishop has given us.
