Outrage as Islamic Call to Prayer Held Inside Historic British Cathedral
The Daily Express (UK) ^ | 1/19/17

Posted on 01/19/2017 8:31:39 PM PST by marshmallow

A ROW has broken out after an Islamic call to prayer was held inside one of Britain's most historic cathedrals.

The traditional Muslim invocation to worship was performed in front of 1,000 people at the launch of a multi-cultural Faith Exhibition at Gloucester Cathedral.

Imam Hassan of the local Masjid-e-Noor mosque was invited by church leaders to carry it out in the cathedral's 11th century Chapter House.

Many worshippers welcomed the "inclusive" act but some traditionalists questioned why a "different God" should be worshipped in such an iconic Christian house.

A clip of the call to prayer was initially shared on the cathedral's Facebook page but then taken down as "inappropriate" as tensions rose.

One post on the removed thread by Isabel Farmer said: "It's wonderful to be multicultural, but faith is set apart.

"We are never to worship other Gods in a house built for our saviour.

"My ancestors built this cathedral and to allow a practising Muslim pray to another God is insanely naive. What did you think it would do? Encourage them to convert?

This is why England is on the downslide. Culture and Race have nothing to do with the first commandment as God made all races and he cares about souls only.

"Stand firm Christians. Bring people to the faith by telling them the truth.

"God is the same yesterday, today, forever, so stop with the multicultural appeal and open a history book and a Bible for yourself."

It’s too late for the PC Brits.

Hopefully, America will finally come to it’s senses.

And is the reciprocal happening?

Are Christian services being held in a mosque as a sign of good will?

My guess is no.

Goodwill and Islam are oxymoronic.

Islam has never been a religion.

Islam has always been a geopolitical plan for conquest.

And those Muslims who DO seriously try to live their lives in peace and nonviolence tend to have bad things happen to them at the hands of other Muslims.

Islam is incompatible with freedom and Free Will and Individualism-—all Christian-only concepts.

Virtue is impossible with islam where you have no free will—you submit or be killed.

It is a vile slave culture of tyranny. Either they get rid of all practicing muslims or tyranny will be institutionalized and their children will all be slaves (or killed).

The is the type of neutered sheep whose sole purpose is to serve as prey for the wolves that political correctness creates.

And thus the Brits will be consumed.

I’m sure they’ll be celebrating the Eucharist at the Salafi mosque next week. Of course, that would be considered a hate crime.

If it was in the Chapter House, it wasn’t in the consecrated Cathedral. That doesn’t make it appropriate, but it’s not quite as presented. It’s a separate building from the Cathedral proper, although joined by a roofed cloister (which was used to shoot various scenes in the Harry Potter movies which is why I had to take my son to visit the place).

That's correct. Of course, the Imam informed the church officials of that aspect of Muslim doctrine, in this case through the deception of al kitman (failing to tell the truth - it's the flip side of al taqiiya, telling a lie). /sarc Just another example of Islamic cultural conquest.

The absolute ignorance and stupidity of the British regarding Islam is heartbreaking.

By 2040 we will see revolution in England. The islamic welfare class will bleed them dry and start killing them. They will be unarmed lambs served to wolves.

We need Trump to have England and France to surrender their nukes. 50 years from now they will be aimed at us.

The muzzies will from now on refer to the church as one of their most holy places.

These idiots have no clue. To them, the muslims they are just praying together with could just as well be Presbyterians. They have no understanding of Islam or its history, but they think they do.
