Right. The woman in Rev. 12 is Israel. I agree with you.
Who/what is the woman depicted in Revelation 17?
No, it's a sign they are bending over for Islam!!!
There's coming a day when they are going to regret it. Islam never stops after one victory. Not until their whole country is an Islamic nation, governed by Sharia Law.
I’ll have to check that out. Mxx
I think this happened in a secular hospital, not a Catholic one.
Muslims believe that Christians are polytheists because of the Trinity.
But isn’t the Trinity really just three different manifestations of the same being, similar to how Pallas and Nike were both really Athena?
You must understand that Italy is a Catholic country.
The move is akin to a Catholic in Saudi Arabia asking that the Quran be removed from the hospital bedside because it was offensive.
I assure you, the result would not be the same.
Yes, something like that. But I’ve spoken with Muslims who just think “You Christians believe in three gods”. My limited experience with their theology is that it is pretty limited — they do not want to believe in anything that is not completely obvious on the face of it, so “different manifestations of the same being” wouldn’t even make any sense to them.
I had to change planes in Milan two years ago about this time. The people were rude and I think deliberately gave us wrong info about changing planes. I find it hard to imagine them giving any non-Italian any consideration, but they may prefer Asian Muslims to Americans. I’m sure that they’re not all like this, but I had a hard time there. And I’m very polite.
Please forgive me for being a jerk, but ... as an English major, I have to correct your use of “hung.” The past-tense of “to hang” (as in the form of execution) is “hanged.”
OK, I’m done. ;-)
Thank you.
Yes, I know that and regularly scream at the talking heads on TV when they screw up that — and countless OTHER elements of speech — but wanted to keep my response parallel to the item to which I was responding. Took a little literary license.
My current favorite pet peeve is the stupid filler “going forward.” How one “goes back” without a time machine really befuddles me.

A hole in the wall? Hmm. I don’t think the hospital would be happy with that but your other suggestions could work (smile).
