Mary chose to appear to 70,000 people at a place named after Mohammed’s daughter. She will convert them.

It's incoherent. I'm glad he's talking about converting Muslims, but this idea that we are NOT share the Jewish Messiah with the Jews themselves is weird, and also goes against the latest Vatican document on this topic ("The Gifts and the Calling of God are Irrevocable") published less than 6 months ago!

> The RC Church does NOT say that any person, even a Jew, can be saved without Christ. Here is an exact quote from the document in question:

"The theory that there may be two different paths to salvation, the Jewish path without Christ and the path with the Christ, whom Christians believe is Jesus of Nazareth, would in fact endanger the foundations of Christian faith....

"Confessing the universal and therefore also exclusive mediation of salvation through Jesus Christ belongs to the core of Christian faith. . . . [T]he Church and Judaism cannot be represented as "two parallel ways to salvation."

There's further,detailed discussion of the document in question on another Free Republic thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/3373448/posts

Obviously, I don't believe in making myself obnoxious to my Jewish friends by badgering them about converting to Christianity. But if the opportunity presents itself to witness to the saving power of our beloved and holy Jewish Messiah, I will do it.

What, otherwise, would we say? "Jesus wants to save everybody, except Jews?" "Jesus loves everybody, except Jews?"

Actually he is wrong. The Jews need conversion. They don’t believe in Jesus Chrst, and He is the reason anyone gets saved.

Just backing Francis’ position that conversion is something shared as a goal between Christianity and Islam.

Normalizing everything to then try to argue that the Muslims can proceed as they want but just drop the terrorism thing.

Problem is they’ve got it ass-backwards. Muslims don’t commit terrorism for Islam. Terrorists hide behind Islam to commit terrorism. And Islam makes it easy by openly teaching terrorism.

In fact, the fit is so close, it’s almost like a terrorist invented Islam to justify terrorism...

Nah... Nobody is that crazy... Right?

I fully agree, but converting all the Muslims is not going to be easy .. they like to kill us infidels... and they do it by bullets, bombs, fire burning alive, and crucifixions now too

(Allah/Satan has his early Legions very well armed...)

I do support a mission in a Moslem country that permits it, however the evangelists are not permitted to show visible signs of the Church and they are forbidden from openly preaching. It has to mostly be ‘by example’...

I thought our job was to carry the Word to give the others a chance to make their own decision. Then we pray for them to see the Light and give themselves to Jesus.

I will NEVER have this marxist as my spiritual leader.
Tired of those who didn’t earn it getting what I did earn taken away and given to them.

Not against their will. We are to share the gospel (as it is written), Mr. Pope . You, too.
