God bless him, ping!
Point of contention, there will never be peace until one of the religions stops killing apostates, stops treating other religions as inferior, stops conversion by the sword, stops using religion as an excuse for slavery, female genital mutilation, taxation, rape, etc etc.....
I am sure two of the two major abrhamatic religions will get along just fine more or less. The “third” one that is a “Compelte Lives system” will continue to be the bur in the saddle....

Best to avoid it.
He better not. No peace with Islam ever.
“So it seems the Pope may be considering pulling together representatives of the three major Abrahamic religions to discuss why it’s not appropriate to kill others in the name of God.”
First of all, Islam is NOT an Abrahamic religion. Middle eastern archaeologists have proven this to be the case.
Secondly, I wasn’t aware Christians and Jews were killing “Mooselimbs” in the name of God. I thought we were killing them to protect our people and societies from their savage barbarity. God has nothing to do with it as far as we’re concerned.
As much as it may sound the same, there is no “peace” in “appeasement”, which is the course this Pope seems to have embarked on.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace, Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen.
I certainly hope that there are Orthodox Jews who refuse to take part.
This shouldn’t surprise anyone.
The Catholic Church incorporates many ancient Babylonian customs into their religion. This comes from a time when church leaders felt it was a good way to bring pagans into the fold.
Besides, I don’t think Islam is an Abrahamic religion. Its roots can be traced all the way back to ancient Babylon. It looks to have been little more than Baal worship in the beginning.
So maybe I’m wrong, but what the church is doing has been done before.
God bless, Pope Francis. And I hope that blessing includes enlightening Pope Frances to the understanding that there are but TWO Abrahamic religions—Judaism and Christianity. Mohammedism is NOT an Abrahamic religion. It is an update to the Arabs pagan religion by Mohammad who HATED the members of the TWO Abrahamic religions.
For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
Jesus said He didn’t come to bring peace. That about says it all.
Abraham had nothing to do with islam, except that they stole that like everything else.
