“Pretty clear to me that this is equating Jehovah with Allah as being the one, merciful God. “ Try reading things in context: The Church and non-Christians Get it? The Church and non-Christians How can anything under that heading do what you claim? ...the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, ... ...the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, ... ...the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, ... ...the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, ... Are you claiming that Islam does NOT “profess to hold the faith of Abraham”?

I've read it in context and the catechism says catholics and muslims, as the catechism puts it, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, .

I am very concerned that the catechism equates the God of the Bible with the false god of Islam by declaring both to adore the one merciful God.

It's crystal clear of the linkage between the two.

By inserting this statement the catechism is equating Jehovah and Allah to be the same God. There is nothing in the catechism that distinguishes the two.

Not sure what part of that you don't understand.

Are you saying Jehovah and Allah are the same? It's a simple yes or no answer.

Since it does not, cease worry.

But even if it did, why would you care?
