Washington Cathedral’s first Muslim prayer service interrupted by heckler
Washington Post ^ | November 14 2014 | Pamela Constable

In a corner of Washington National Cathedral, several hundred Muslim worshipers and other invited guests gathered Friday afternoon for a first-ever recitation of weekly Muslim prayers at the iconic Christian church and to hear leaders of both faiths call for religious unity in the face of extremist violence and hate.

Nevertheless, the carefully scripted ceremony was marred once when a well-dressed middle-age woman in the audience suddenly rose and began shouting that “America was founded on Christian principles. . . . Leave our church alone!” She was swiftly ushered out by security aides, and the service continued.

How many of us were wondering if some of those who attended the prayer meeting were there to decide where to hide the bombs ..??

That was my first thought when I heard about this prayer meeting.

Can you tell I don’t trust these people ..??

Islam is not a religion. It is a Satan worshipping death cult.

“..In a corner of Washington National Cathedral, several hundred Muslim worshipers..”

hummmmmm? In a corner- the National Cathedral is a huge edifice. In the corner? could that be a chapel?? They weren’t up where the pulpit,choir and altar area are located - the heart of any church?? Curious?

The Episcopagans who own the place left Christianity a long time ago. They are basically Unitarian Universalists with fancy robes.

Let me guess: Catholic? Or, Orthodox Christian?

In August of 2001 the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) estabalished a "Full Communion Partnership" with The Episcopal Church through the adoption of "Called to Common Mission".

Therefore:



Lutheran (EL C S*A) Ping!

* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.

Be rooted in Christ!

Amen. No where in the Great Commission is there room for the apostasy commited by the Episcopal (no longer a) church. The have become a shell of a civic organization. The should just merge with the Unitarians.

God is not mocked. It will all come down on their heads.

Levin made a good point about how Moslems would neverr, ever permit Christian services in their mosques and thus, are hardly subjects of pity to be given like hospitality.

Give that woman a medal.

Thank God she made the statement in the good old United States, because if she dared to make such a statement in a Muslim country, she would probably be missing some body limbs or her head by now.

Indeed. It is a sad day when a Christian (in name only) church decides to allow a bunch of pagans to worship a blood thirsty paedophilic entity in the sanctuary

Has anyone given thought to the fact that she might have been a plant? A “radical” angry white intolerant Christian? If she is subjected to intense media scrutiny later that makes her life hell, I’d say she’s for real, but there wasn’t much on her in the article, almost a casual mention just to plant the idea in the LIV’s mush holder that Christians are the intolerant ones. All this security, and invite only attendance, and she gets through? Doesn’t pass the smell test. ...

Probably in a transept area. There really is not much furnishing there, it is easy to adapt whole large areas because they are barren floors.

The “peace-loving” moozlums will find her and likely chop of her head any day now.

Tell me, do you think that the Prophet Mohammad had serious mental problems that caused him to come up with the story that the angel Gabriel visited him back around 700 A.D.?

Or, do you think the Prophet Mohammad made up the whole story to make friends and influence people, but his story got out of control, and so he had to pile one story onto another story to keep his followers happy until he had one great mess on his hands?

Are Muslims going to come and burn my house down after reading this message? I hope not.

This is about Chrislam, one step for the NWO types toward an eventual one-world religion.
