After I had posted that about Achmadinejad (sp?) talking about Jesus, I remembered reading a long time ago that mohammedans see Jesus as a prophet, so it’s probably not a big deal for him to wish us a Merry Christmas.
That is true, and I’ve read of their special regard for Mary the Blessed Mother. It’s astonishing, really. Perhaps those in charge of Islam are dealing with their own bitter version of “Modernism”, as are Western Christians.
