>> I think we are on the same side here — against Islam.<<

What I’m trying to convey is that we need to be vigilant what ever organized religion we may belong to. The interfaith dialogue is not restricted to any particular one. We can no longer assume “our church” is not at risk. It seems to me that all are.

The Pope receiving the mark of Shiva.

The “interfaith dialogue has crept into every denomination and religion apparently.

There will be no “interfaith dialogue” in my life.

2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

The truth on the Mark of Shiva thing.

"Q: Someone in the schismatic group the Society of St. Pius X told me that when the pope was in India he had his forehead anointed by a Hindu 'priestess of Shiva' and that there is a photo to prove it. Is this true?

"A: There is a photo of the pope having his forehead anointed by an Indian woman, but she was a Catholic, not a Hindu priestess! She was giving a traditional Indian form of greeting known as 'Aarti,' which has no more religious significance than a handshake in western culture or giving someone a wreath of flowers as a welcome in Hawaii.

According to the Roman Catholic Catechism,

The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place among 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 (Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 841, quoting Lumen Gentium 16, November 21, 1964).

How could Catholics and Muslims worship the same God since Muslims deny the Trinity, the Sonship and the Deity of our Lord?

Quite frankly, the statement that Catholics and Muslims adore the same God is false. It should be evident to every Catholic who has complete confidence in the infallibility and unchangeableness of the Roman magisterium, that in fact the Vatican's teaching on this matter has changed and that it is both fallible and mistaken.

Also, your link has a number of incongruities: by a professing Christian Hindu woman. -- "professing Christian Hindu"? Hinduism is a religion, Indian is the nationality (or Bharatiya in Hindi)

Secondly, it says a "mark of Shiva", now a Shiva Tilak looks like

three horizontal bands and one single vertical. And no, that did not happen.

So there are quite a few inconsistencies...
