For the first time in Vatican history, the pope allowed for the reading of Islamic prayers and Koran readings from the Catholic facility.

The readings and prayer came as Pope Francis met with Israeli President Shimon Peres and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Vatican City, a gathering designed to pray for Middle Eastern peace.

A Holy See spokesman said the prayers were supposed to be a “pause in politics,” Breitbart reported. The pope said, too, that he hoped the interfaith prayers would foster peace specifically between Israelis and Palestinians, the news outlet said.

NO!

The point is to Retain your Faith in the face of crisis.

These actions have no impact on dogma, faith, or morals.

I’m sure he is well aware that “Allah” is the Moon god, the demon prince of Arabia.

You’re doing Christianity in General no favors. Though you doubtless don’t care.

1. I'm not condemning anyone

2. I'm speaking from Scripture

3. I've offered my sincerest best wishes

The truth tends to offend. I don't apologize for that.

He’s likely been taught, as we are lectured to incessantly by the fraud’s sycophants, that islam’s allah and the God of Israel are THE SAME GOD.

And so, when is the pope set to pray and read from the Bible at the giant Pet Rock in Mecca?

It was time for all true believers to bail out of all of the nicolaitan churches, not just the catholic cult, when John received the Revelation.

Its way passed time now.

According to the New Testament of the Bible

the God Jehovah of Israel has a Son

- Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

but Allah has no son according to the Koran

Therefore the Biblical New Testament Christian God of Israel

is not/can not be Allah!

Remember when murderous adherents to the `religion of peace’ declared a fatwah on Salman Rushdie for writing `The Satanic Verses’?

The Pope and Vatican scolded ...... Salman Rushdie.

It’s almost like Pope Frank and Barry belong to the same frat house: Murder House.

The FR anti-Catholic squad must be bored today to be regurgitating an article FROM A YEAR AGO.

> That’s not the way ISIS or most other Islamic fanatics see it. They see it as the most holy city of Christianity submitting to Islam.

I don’t remember where I saw it but I remember there was a report or news article somewhere that claimed that one of Islam’s main goals was to infiltrate the Catholic church and subjugate it to bring it under their control. Looks like no weapons are required. Juat ask to pray there and read a book of another entire religion which is diametrically opposed to Christianity in what is considered to the Christian capitol of the world. All in the name of cordiality to meet the new requirements of PC, fairness, equality. etc...Satan must be laughing his butt off at the stupidity of men right now.
