I dunno, allend. I've never seen that before, but It doesn't look quite right to me. I agree that Christ died for all mankind, but unless you are telling me that's what the quote is talking about, reading it by itself doesn't plainly say it, to me.

Do you have the context of the quote that makes it more clear?

Guys, let me post a direct quote out of the Koran, then a direct quote out of the Roman Catholic Cathechism...(emphasis mine)

From the Koran: [4.157] And their saying: Surely we have killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the apostle of Allah; and they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them so (like Jesus) and most surely those who differ therein are only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for sure.

From the Roman Catholic Cathechism: 841. "The Church's relationship with the Muslims. 'The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day.'[LG 16; cf. NA 3.]"

The Koran specifically teaches that Jesus DID NOT DIE ON THE CROSS. A complete repudiation of the "Holiest of Holies" of the Christian belief -- and Roman Catholicism ACCEPTS that!
