The previous day Pope Francis had delivered an opening address at the Congress in which he decried conversion efforts, and told the various representatives that their “religions” remind them all that they are “journeying towards the same heavenly goal.”

I don’t want to ruffle feathers but The Christ of the New Testament doesn’t need or want the corrupt RCC to proselatyze for him. I am not a Mormon, but they do a better job, as do the SDA, the the Jehovah Witnesses. At least they try and and “go to all the nations” in a personal way.

I am very disappointed to learn that Rabbi Yosef, the son of the late Rabbi `Ovadyah Yosef (zt"l) was involved in such a travesty.

Are the leaders of all the other religions betraying their constituencies as well?

Unfortunately, he also said this:

“Schneider, however, said he believed that such global events could be “used by the political elites for their purposes” and that he would advise the Vatican that interfaith engagement should take place on a more local level in the future.”

So, it appears he’s totally fine with false ecumenism, just not on the international scene.

Bishop Schneider had previously warned against such words when they appeared in the 2019 Abu Dhabi document which Pope Francis signed alongside the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar. At the time he said that by implementing the Abu Dhabi document without correcting its erroneous affirmation on the diversity of religions, “men in the Church not only betray Jesus Christ as the only Savior of mankind and the necessity of His Church for eternal salvation, but also commit a great injustice and sin against love of neighbor.”

Apparently Bergoglio didn't listen then either. I'm wondering why he thinks responding to him in a similar way will end with a different result.
