ROME, JULY 9, 2010 (Zenit.org).- The coexistence of Christians and Muslims is good for civil society because their mutual questioning of the other's faith acts as a stimulus and leads to deeper understanding, says a Jesuit priest who is an expert in Islamic studies.
This is the opinion of Father Samir Khalil Samir, an Islamic scholar and Catholic theologian born in Egypt and based in the Middle East for more than 20 years.
He teaches Catholic theology and Islamic studies at St. Joseph University in Beirut, is founder of the CEDRAC research institute and is author of many articles and books, including "111 Questions on Islam."

The well-educated cleric is wrong and stupid. He is talking about a violent world-domination ideology cleverly disguised as a religion.
Question:
“Is Islam Part OF God’s Plan?”
Answer:
No.
A Jesuit? Of course!
Islam is the plan of the Evil One for world domination.shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiachAnyone who has sought the face of YHvH and His salvation through His Word would know that.
bingo
Islam... the anus of religious thought.
Like Nazism, Islam is obsessed with earthly perfection, which is unattainable. You can’t be perfect, it’s impossible. Muslims worry more about praying five times a day than about building their country and living lives that accept the fallibility of man.
In Judeo-Christian societies, the citizenry worry more about building their country and accept that no one is perfect, which is okay. Without worrying about earthly perfection, they can concentrate on living life and being human.
I realize that you’ve contributed this for discussion’s sake. I must answer the general question: No, I truly do not believe islam (forever small “i”) is part of God’s plan. There is one True Faith. And there are many theologians that enjoy a comfortable life due to selling books based on controversial premises that do most emphatically NOT adhere to Catholic teaching and Magisterium. This person is one.
The human species as we know it is destined to strive for greatness, having a challenge is our destiny, having no opposition and a free and easy lifestyle with no worries, no problems and no enemies always leads to a weakened society, of which our current generation is a victim of, why?
Because we do need to war, to kill, to struggle the reach a better lifestyle that cannot be done with enemies at close hand.
Islam is our precipice, we need to get to the edge, and Obama is the temptation of the devil, those that follow him are casting off their souls, those that talk of living alongside Islam are only surrendering to the inevitable conclusion, Christianity and Islam absolutely cannot exist in close contact, no way no how.
Islam seeks total domination, absolute obedience, to willfully die for Mohammed, we are Spartans, those that don’t measure up, those that cannot raise their shields are not worthy of being a Spartan.
And frankly I think we have also forgotten the Spartans, something to think about.
That sounds like Mormonism to me. Ten foot pole alert.
The reason why I posted it was because just the title itself took me by surprise. The truth is that Christianity and Islam WILL NEVER TRULY GET ALONG. It is like cats and dogs or water and eletricity.
The Bible passage mentioned has been realized so many times.
I’m convinced the anti-christ will be Islamic.
I like and agree with your response. Islam DEMANDS you be perfect. The Christian faith KNOWS that you CANNOT BE PERFECT. That is why in the latter God sent His Son, WHO IS PERFECT, go to the Cross in order to forgive sinful humanity of his/her sins.
Me too, the more as time goes on.
The Islam faith is a Satanic death cult...and Muslims do not know but they actually worship a Satanic demon...proof is that they reject Christ [the true and only living God] and their false scriptures only make Christ out to be another god. True Christians will never “get along” with false Christ rejecting cults.
Certain scriptures suggest the Antichrist may be a Syrian Jew. Now those are in short supply.
Or rather the Muslims and their Koran make Christ out to be just another prophet. Simply put, not regarded as the Son of God.
