Would some Catholic please let me know when this pope is speaking ex cathedra and when he’s speaking triple-x cathedra?

Islam espouses peace - a peace in which the entire world is Islamic ... no Catholics, no other Christians, no Jews, no Buddhists, no Hindus ...

Catholics need to read John 16:2-3. In that passage, Jesus warns that, although people will think that they are doing God a service by killing others, such people don’t know the Father or Jesus.

Consider the Muslim girl who has evidently been desensitized to the killing of people.

“must believe “ is the problem. No institution has the right to force belief. That includes the Catholic Church.

I think a lot of the confusion stems from a lack of understanding of the nature of war.

Take a minute and recall that MOST Japanese citizens did not physically take up arms during WWII. MOST German citizens did not take up arms during WWII. Should one conclude that Germany and Japan were basically peaceful?

Were we not at war?!?

Must Catholics Believe that Islam Is Peaceful?

Our local Catholic Church is named "Our Lady of Victory." Declared a Feast Day by Pope Pius V for October 7, 1571 when the Holy League fleet defeated the Ottoman Muslim fleet at Lepanto.

So the answer is. NO.

.. Monsignor Stuart Swetland, President of Donnelly College in Kansas City

Catholicism has its own kind of GOPe.

The Monsignor Merkels must be purged.

Is Pelosi catholic?

I am not defined by my catholocism either w.r.t. this pope. The Crusades were about pushing this religion of peace back where it belongs.
