As if he weren’t already committed enough to foolish false charity and willful ignorance regarding the jihad threat, Pope Francis on Wednesday met in the Vatican with Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, the secretary general of the Muslim World League (MWL), a group that has been linked to the financing of jihad terror.

The ImPopester’s mission is to prepare his flock for slaughter by muslims.

Nor is this the first time a Muslim leader has thanked the Pope for being so very useful. Last July, Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Grand Imam of Cairo’s al-Azhar, thanked him for his “defense of Islam against the accusation of violence and terrorism.”

Has any other Pope of Rome in the history of Christianity ever been heralded as a “defender of Islam”?

Of course not. But the Catholic Church has come a long way since the days of Pope Callixtus III, who vowed in 1455 to “exalt the true Faith, and to extirpate the diabolical sect of the reprobate and faithless Mahomet in the East.”

People need to understand that Pope Francis took his name for a reason.

Unfortunately, it didn't work then and it won't work now.

I guess people either don’t understand the significance of Pope Francis taking up the name of St Francis.

Yes, St. Francis really was a captive of the Sultan of Egypt.

Yes St. Francis went on crusade to become a Martyr or convert Muslims. He ended up spending lots of time studying Islam and trying to teach the Sultan about Christianity.

Pope Francis like St Francis is an innocent and naive. It didn’t work when St. Francis tried it and it will not work now.

However, Pope Francis is pretty clear in what he is trying to do.

I disagree. I think St Francis was neither naive nor did he fail in his missionary work.

You're comparing a ripe orange to a rotten apple.

Yes, there is a fundamental difference between personal ministry and collectivist coercion.

I for one immediately got the subtext of the name choice, although it was a disservice to the prior Francis.

For me it was a simple equation:

A (Jesuit) + B (Argentine) + C (Francis) = D (Marxist).

I seem to recall a certain JPII kissing the Koran. How much more of a defender of Islam does one get than that?

"May Saint John Baptist protect Islam,” Pope John Paul II.

N.B. St John the Baptist was beheaded: muslims are quite prone to beheading Christians.
