“841 The Church’s relationship with the Muslims. “The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; *******these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.”********330"

I see your point that the Muslims profess to hold the faith of Abraham, but directly afterward it says "together with us they adore the one merciful God."

That is not the case.

"The reason why I think CB is being [I’m not allowed to say it here or else my post will be deleted] here is that she excludes Jews and focuses only on Muslims - and links them (alone) to Catholics. Jews, however, killed those whom they believed to be heretics, blasphemers, etc. Again, see Exodus 32."

27.

Jews can't be lumped with Muslims. It's true that the Jewish people believe the Messiah is yet to come, but we share the same Old Testament. Scripture says we are grafted onto THEIR branch.

Islam is a bastard religion, a murderous blood cult whose chief aim is world domination.

"And wasn’t Jesus supposedly condemned for blasphemy?"

You can't be serious. Can you? Tell me you're not.

"And what about the fact that Protestants sometimes killed those they condemned as heretics? CB skips right over those cases, of course."

That was just as wrong. But if you can find a Protestant on this forum, or anywhere else, who celebrates that kind of murder as right and praises God for it, I'll buy you a bag of M&Ms.

Your opinion is duly noted, but doesn’t matter.

“Jews can’t be lumped with Muslims.”

In some ways they can be - and in some ways Jews do that themselves.

“It’s true that the Jewish people believe the Messiah is yet to come, but we share the same Old Testament. Scripture says we are grafted onto THEIR branch.”

That changes nothing about lumping Jews and Muslims together on some things. Does Jewish law allow the execution of heretics and blasphemers? Does Muslim law? The answer to both questions is that both law codes DEMAND IT.

“Islam is a bastard religion, a murderous blood cult whose chief aim is world domination.”

Okay, and yet they profess to follow the God of Abraham. We’re stuck with that.

I wrote: “And wasn’t Jesus supposedly condemned for blasphemy?”

You wrote: “You can’t be serious. Can you? Tell me you’re not.”

Are you denying the gospel accounts of Jesus’ condemnation? He was falsely accuse of blasphemy was He not? Seriously, how can you deny what the gospel says in the passion stories? Are you actually denying Matthew 26:65? Are you actually denying Mark 14:64? Or even John 10:36?

I told you to check yourself and I’m telling you again. You’re now denying the literal word of the Bible if you don’t believe Jesus was supposedly condemned for blasphemy.

I am so surprised that you would do this - maybe I shouldn’t be since you’re a Protestant after all - that I will await your response on this. Check yourself. Get it straight.

“That was just as wrong. But if you can find a Protestant on this forum, or anywhere else, who celebrates that kind of murder as right and praises God for it, I’ll buy you a bag of M&Ms.”

I have seen plenty of Protestant anti-Catholics make excuses for it and possibly one or two praise God for it. I’m not going to bother going through thousands of posts to find it. One time I think it was in reference to St. Edmund Campion.

I don’t need your M&Ms, but you need to do some serious soul searching about your views on the passion narratives if you’re going to deny scripture like that.
