While the Vatican sits silently and leftist Christians continually make excuses for Islam, things are getting worse, and worse for Christians in Islamic lands. The silence and excuses are only emboldening them. Wake up, Islam is not Christianity friendly.

is this the same peter that denied Jesus 3 times?? Peter was just a man....
exactly
instead of this I’m Catholic I have to defend that my religion is all B/S
muslims do not seperate one Christian group from another and all this hogwash of turn the other cheek and say it nicely by asking can we have some churches please in your country isn’t stopping them form killing and attacking and it sure isn’;t get us anywhere
YOU seem to have more of a problem with Protestants than with muslims
Your posts have attacked the Protestant church more than you talked about muslims
you do realize the war between Henry the 8th and the Pope have ended right?
I was under the impression that it is Jesus’ church?? I believe that Jesus is the one causes the church to grow...
Don’t be so impatient.
Comparing what the Vatican is saying to the rest of Europe, is not saying much at all. When Pastors like Parsley are more outspoken something is wrong.
Vatican Says Islamic Finance May Help Western Banks in Crisis
By Lorenzo Totaro
March 4 (Bloomberg) — The Vatican said banks should look at the rules of Islamic finance to restore confidence amongst their clients at a time of global economic crisis.
“The ethical principles on which Islamic finance is based may bring banks closer to their clients and to the true spirit which should mark every financial service,” the Vatican’s official newspaper Osservatore Romano said in an article in its latest issue late yesterday.
Author Loretta Napoleoni and Abaxbank Spa fixed income strategist, Claudia Segre, say in the article that “Western banks could use tools such as the Islamic bonds, known as sukuk, as collateral”. Sukuk may be used to fund the “‘car industry or the next Olympic Games in London,” they say.
Pope Benedict XVI in an Oct. 7 speech reflected on crashing financial markets saying that “money vanishes, it is nothing” and concluded that “the only solid reality is the word of God.” The Vatican has been paying attention to the global financial meltdown and ran articles in its official newspaper that criticize the free-market model for having “grown too much and badly in the past two decades.”
The Osservatore’s editor, Giovanni Maria Vian, said that “the great religions have always had a common attention to the human dimension of the economy,” Corriere della Sera reported today.

Vatican supports call to teach Islam
Nick Pisa in Rome

The Vatican has surprisingly welcomed a proposal to teach Islam in Italian schools.

Now they are even promoting another religion. Just sad.
Next you will be telling me that the Vatican sent out a strong message against Nazism as well.

Do you not understand that some DIPSHIT writing in L’Osservatore Romano does not make VATICAN policy in any way shape or form, whether it is repeated in Bloomberg or on your website or not?
I understand, but that does not mean that all of Europe should suffer in the future.

LOL. you are one of the dipsh*ts that think the Pope Pious was in bed with the Nazis, eh? Well, now that I see your level of expertise, we have nothing to discuss again. Ciao, toots.
>>500,000 Kurds have converted to catholicism in Iraq... over 1 Million Morrocans and over 1 Million Algerians have Converted from Islam to catholcism..<<
.
That would be excellent news, but this is the first time I heard about it. Sources?
I read the headline and came to the thread ready to lend support, and this is the first thing you can think of to say?
Pathetic.
Show me the statement by the Vatican refuting it then.
Point I out where I said they were in bed. I said there was not strong message against them either and there was not.
You might want to grow up and I am sure that you get so many people over to your point of view with your child like personality.
Save your breath. The only reason this was posted was to lay into Catholics. God have mercy, but these folks are sick.
>>Now consider what would happen to vulnerable Catholics and Protestants worldwide if the Pope openly criticized Islam.<<
.
Does that mean that the West in general and the Catholic Church in particular are restricted to defend themselves because they are bound by the bonds of blackmail?
Wrong, the reason it was postede was that the Church has to be more outspoken against Islam advancing across the world. Being silent and now worrying about Europe falling to Islam is what is sick.
If you would of read all the posts, I fully supported Christian leaders like Rod Parsley and Franklin Graham, who speak the truth about Islam.
You are a buzzing fly.
To be ignored.
Truth hurts, huh?
