A class offered at Sacred Heart Cathedral in Rochester is encouraging people to learn more about the history and practice of Islam.
Dr. Joseph Kelly is the professor emeritus of religious studies at Nazareth College and leads the sessions. He said the classes were created to eliminate any uncertainty or fear people might have towards the faith, and separate the religion from extremist groups.
"There are extreme groups. There are extremists in the Jewish tradition, the Christian tradition and yes the Islamic tradition. But this is a very small percentage of the people who practice it, and unfortunately they get all the press."
Kelly said he has held two of these sessions previously at other churches and was met with a positive response.

My hometown no less..
Cucks...
I learned all I needed to know about Islam when the showed tens of thousands of them dancing in the streets in Pakistan after thy murdered several thousand Americans on 9/11.
Islam is a wonderful peaceful kind religion that only wants piece, PIECE ... a little piece of Poland, a little piece of France, a little piece of Austria and Portugal per chance, a little slice of England, a little spot of Greece....
Simply not true.
Feel good relativist bullish**
Dhimmis soon to feel the sword.
and ALL of the USA!
Amazing how people, that we all probably would think as rational thinkers, are wiliingly falling for the BS that Islam is actually peaceful and that the extremists are the very small fringe.
Last time I looked, Christianity doesn’t proscribe that you either convert, pay a tax - so you can live, or get your head chopped off. Maybe someone can tell me I’m wrong. Maybe.
Islam is the only “religion” the left would embrace. The one that wants to kill off Western culture in a bloodbath.
They’re certifiable.
The idiot left will try to march us into the camps before the Muslims finally (surprise, not) march them into the camps.
But at least they won’t be Islamophobes.
Same infernal “daddy” as secularists.
Yet another useful idiot for the Islamic invasion and conquest of USA and the west. He can repeat his lies about how insignificant is the threat —.all the way up to the day the islamonazis murder his family and neighbors slit his throat. They won’t need him anymore then
Islam was founded on violent extremism. Islam is a war plan.
Yes, they want a little piece of the universe, known as Earth, all for themselves.
“Islam was founded on violent extremism. Islam is a war plan.”
Read this the other day: Hijrah, a massive invasive immigration, which is a tactic of Jihad or islamic war.
How many of the good Doctor’s beloved Islamists participated in the takeover and occupation of Europe in the year 800 or so? Were these also all peaceful, loving people?
Same here, and a former Catholic who attended Holy Rosary School and occasionally Sacred Heart.
The Christian Church is for preaching about the one true God, and the good news of our Savior Jesus.
No need for this crap.
SICK!!!...... 1400 years - 400 MILLION INNOCENTS MURDERED!!!.... Have these people no souls who call islam anything but a satanic cult?
