Yeah, I heard about that years ago. It’s idiotic.

Not apparently to the Roman Catholic Cult:

841 The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."

Looks like your "church" aligns itself with Muslims and Islam.

“Not apparently to the Roman Catholic Cult”

You make two errors:

1) there is no “Roman Catholic Cult” that published the CCC.

2) Nothing in the CCC is about Chrislam. Chrislam is the mixing of two different religious. What the CCC discusses in 841 is what two different religions have in common.

Of course truth and facts won’t stop any anti-Catholic from posting distortions and misrepresentations. Anti-Catholics apparently think it is okay to lie. It’s what they do.

Your comments are not only at odds with the Catechism of the Catholic Church but with the scriptures as well. Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles, wrote that even the Athenians were worshiping God, though ignorantly. It can be said of the Moslems that they worship the God of Abraham in ignorance as well. Any semantic difference between "worship" and "adore" is insignificant for they surely are zealous for the God of Abraham in their ignorance.

Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
