Updated at: 2145 PST, Saturday, July 05, 2008 RIYADH: King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, whose country is home to Islam's holiest shrines, will launch an inter-faith conference in Spain later this month, the palace said on Saturday.
The Saudi monarch "will inaugurate the international dialogue conference which will be held under his auspices in Madrid on July 16-18," a statement carried by the official news agency said.
The agency said the king had left for Morocco on a private visit ahead of the conference due to be attended by Christians, Jews and Muslims.
In March, King Abdullah proposed talks among the three largest monotheistic religions in a first for the kingdom, which hosts Islam's two holiest shrines in Mecca and Medina.
Last month the Mecca-based Muslim World League said the Madrid meeting would bring together representatives from the "followers of God's messages and other cultures."
The stars will burn out first.
He just wants an excuse to stop in “Andalusia” and announce the plan to re-take southern Europe pursuit of the Islamist programme.
Hey, have an interfaith conference at home slime saudi. Oh yea, you can’t. The attendeees would be beheaded for promoting anything but islamoslime.
Anyone know how to say “bullsh*t” in Arabic? On second thought, maybe “camel sh*t”.
It would have to be in Spain. After all it is not like all the other participants could even bring their holy books to SA.
I support this. It is clear that this effort springs from two things. The first is Pope Benedict’s efforts to create this very dialog. The second it that the other form of interfaith dialogue, jihad, really isn’t working out very well anymore.
I’ll believe he is sincere when he launchess an interfaith conference in Mecca. Not holding my breath.
"Welcome my friends to thie interfaith meeting. OK first on the adgenda, Seeing how you Jews, Hindus and Christians are not Muslem, you offend my faith will have to be immediately beheaded!" Second topic on the agenda, how to throw that perfect rock at the stoning of a woman you just rapes for allowing herself to be defiled!
The finall communique will be very brief:
!!!!SUBMIT!!!!
