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.

Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me,^[a] “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, ² with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”

³ So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. ⁴ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication.^{[b] 5} And on her forehead a name was written:

MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS
OF THE EARTH.

⁶ I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.

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.

Is it time yet for the true believers to bail out of the Catholic church?

[circlecity]

Wouldn’t this be the equivalent of letting the Canaanites into the temple to sacrifice to Baal?

What do you expect from just another false religion? False religions gotta stick together.

Who wants to cite the Catechism first?

Never thought we’d see the day that these revelations would actually play out in such a real time script way.

I may have missed it, but when is the reciprocal event - Christians praying in Mecca - when is that event scheduled?

If muslims were sincere about coexisting they would allow Catholics into mecca....that hasn’t happened while the pope is doing his muslim outreach

A TASTE OF ISLAM
There is NO “Radical Islam”. It’s ALL JUST Islam and, if they adhere to the teachings of Mohammed, THEY’RE ALL RADICAL because, ultimately, they ALL want kafirs (that’s us) D.E.A.D.! Get used to it!!

If you genuinely want to understand the TRUE, VIOLENT, DUALISTIC, SCHIZOPHRENIC nature of ISLAM in order to become part of a solution instead of part of the problem that spells doom for Western Civilization (and, NO, that’s not too extreme a statement), you need to spend 40 minutes with Dr. Bill Warner here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjBDDC4wVxk
(Don’t be concerned when Dr. Warner mentions that he “sells” books. Once you’re past that section, the red meat beyond is well worth the short wait.)

And this is ESPECIALLY for any antisemites who view the “Jewish Conspiracy” as the primary threat to your existence and are put off because the video was posted by a Jewish group.  Try to think of any nations conquered by violent, bloody Jewish jihad and send me their names.

After watching this presentation, if you STILL believe that Bush was correct when he called islam a “religion of peace” (it’s not a religion and it ain’t peaceful) and Obama was right when he recently declared islam morally equivalent or superior to the Christian Crusades, you are DEFINITELY a BIG part of the problem.

Gang, this is a WAR and it is one we dare not lose!

Is this Pope even Christian?

[Don Corleone]

definitely off his meds.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

I don’t know if it is time yet. However, I do know that when things reach a level of evil do as St. Paul said;”Come out from among them..” KJV

[onedoug]

This is really insidious.

Is it time yet for the true believers to bail out of the Catholic church?

Come to my Lutheran service any time. We sing, listen to the reverend preach, then sing some more. Much fun. And it doesn't last forever like the Catholic service seems to.
