Yup. Three choices are given: become a dhimmi (submit to live as second class citizen), or convert, or die. Religious obligation for them.

Hey Dentist!
Unless you're Jewish, "The Vatican" knew the dangers of mohammedanism, and actively opposed it, long before your denomination existed.
But don't let the facts get in the way of a good snark ...

...don't let the facts get in the way of a good snark ... I try not to. Yes, I know they were aware, but it was like the big elephant in the room. they seldom speak of it, succumbing to Political Correctness.

The image of JPII kissing a Koran is widely misunderstood and often defamed. It is used frequently by anti-Catholics to imply that the Catholic Church is in some way in league with Islam. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Unlike Calvinism that has many dogmatic similarities to Islam the Catholic Church has stood in steadfast opposition to Islam for over 1300 years. The Church recognizes the Abrahamic origins of Islam, but that in no way endorses it. The Church declares that there is one infinitely perfect God and that Islam, like many Christian sects, imperfectly describes and worships Him.

It’s a good thing he didn’t say that on “The View.”

Ping for later.
I may want to use this link in a Facebook argument I am having with a liberal. He is incredulous that terrorists may be motivated by Islam and urged me to speak with an Imam and get set straight.

"The Vatican" knew the dangers of mohammedanism, and actively opposed it, long before your denomination existed. I wouldn't get to triumphant when there are photos of the late Pope JP2 kissing the Koran.

Obama will probably want to cut diplomatic ties with the Vatican....
To: Natural Law
Your defense of Pope John Paul 2’s kissing the Koran is not impressive. You can recognize Islam’s pseudo Abrahamic origins w/out kissing the Koran.

The Vatican needs to get these marching orders out to the Clergy. While world governments still allow it.

“The image of JPII kissing a Koran is widely misunderstood and often defamed.”
Lame excuse. The image speaks for itself. JPII was dabbling with syncretism.
Would JPII kiss the book of Mormon??? They have as much claim to Abrahamic origins.
Would YOU kiss a book that rationalized the killing of your mother or daughter?
To: Tamar1973
Since the mohammedans' favourite curse-word is "Crusader", I'll get as "triumphant" as I like.

Rule Two: In case of doubt, see Rule One.
Corollary: "Rome" must be destroyed. All else is irrelevant.

The headline makes it appear that the Catholic Church was officially making this pronouncement. It wasn’t the pope who said this, but one Arab archbishop (who happened to have a ringside seat when Muslims were killing Catholics unless he happened to be in Rome at the time of the civil war).
