Then they are ignorant. If they read the article, or just the caption, they can use discernment to determine whether or not they themselves would want to see John the Baptist’s tomb. I would want to see it. To have the opportunity to pray at the tomb of a contemporary of Jesus’ time is extraordinary.

The Spanish turned mosques into churches. They did the same with Meso-American temples. The Italians turned some pagan temples into churches. Greeks did so, too. Northern Europeans could have also followed suit.
Converting buildings from one religion to another isn't something exclusive to Islam.

In medieval times it was rumored that the Knights Templar had possession of the head, and multiple records from their Inquisition in the early 1300s make reference to some form of head worship. "Did somebody say 'head worship?'"

Is John the Baptist/Baptizer revered in Islam. They consider Christ to be a prophet, but not the Messiah (Christ).

The most important question is why is Nancy Pelosi making the sign of the cross. Given her views she should not be allowed any where near anything catholic. I don't disagree with you... however, neither of us is in charge and God has shown Himself most capable of defending His Own Honor.

Why? Is it your house?"
I'd be offended too. Satan worship is not allowed in any Christian church I know of.

Surely you don't disagree with Kaslin's remark suggesting a lot of Christians would be offended by a Muslim worshiping Allah inside of a church?
Can imagine that a large amount of freepers would be in an uproar over that. Personally would probably consider it an oddity or a lame attempt by the Muslim to make a point.

She doesn’t know what she’s doing.
To: jude24
It does look like she is making the sign of the Cross which would be appropriate in the front of the tomb of St. John the Baptist.
To: Virulas
According to some Muslims John the Baptist was really a messanger for Islam as Jews never really existed.

Actually her version of a cross is a little crooked.
She is Nazi Pelosi after all, and Bashar Assad is her kind of guy.

To: Kaslin
IMO - It’s more likely that she’s trying to do a Muslim gesture, with one hand because the other is holding an emergencey facelift kit. After all, she’s got the head scarf, why stop there... I think Muslims do a gesture that “symbolizes washing the face” with two hands in front of the face before they pray.
