Ping!
This is "we are the world" ecumenical trash which, as the text even lets on itself, makes all religions equal under the same God "who created them." This is exactly the sin we must be avoiding, this "equality" of all religions under "one God," when they do not worship God, but idols.
This was one of the things that ticked me off so bad about the Republican National Convention. They had Mormons on stage leading prayers, making their religion equal with Christianity, and this Pope is no different in his guilt.
"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?"(2Co 6:14-15)
"If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds."(2Jn 1:10-11)
1Co 16:22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.
Funny...never saw Peter, Paul, James or any of the other apostles praying in the roman temples.
What would Pope Urban II do?
IMHO, Catholics, orthodox. Jews, Lutherans, Calvinists, Unitarians largely anyway, baptists, Methodists, Copts, Adventists and many more denominations all pray to the over true (biblical) God. We have a thousand differences but we pray to the right guy. I have no problems sharing a prayer with almost any of these believers, and yes- I can then debate our differences with just as much vigor as before. Call me ecumenical if you wish, even call me mistaken. But there it is. I cannot however share a prayer session with someone who believes in a book that instructs him to kill or subjugate us. I cannot pray with someone whose “god” seeks our death and destruction. Your Holiness, please read that book before you Invite or befriend any more of its adherents. I respectfully submit that such gestures mislead the faithful into thinking that there’s no significant difference between God and Satan.
Modernist and ecumenical trash indeed.
I don’t think Unitarians belong on that list.
Thanks. You’ll notice I qualified that orb a bit. Some uua’s believe in the biblical true God, some don’t. This may reflect the two different major paths that led to today’s combined Unitarian Universalist Association However that may be, I do agree with you that at least some of them probably aren’t best included. Thanks! Ps: ( at least they don’t preach to kill us , though!)
they do have that going for them. heh
Either interreligous group prayer is right or it is wrong. It can't be "necessarily exceptional and infrequent".
PRAYER WITH NON-CATHOLICS FORBIDDEN
Are heretics and schismatics excommunicated? Yes; they have no part in the Communion of the Saints. Catechism of the Summa
If any ecclesiastic or layman shall go into the synagogue of the Jews or to the meeting-houses of the heretics to join in prayer with them, let them be deposed and deprived of communion. If any bishop or priest or deacon shall join in prayer with heretics, let him be suspended from communion. II Council of Constantinople
That Christians and ecclesiastics should pray for Christian unity under the direction of heretics and, what is worse, according to an intention which is radically impregnated and vitiated with heresy, is absolutely impossible to tolerate! Ven. Pope Pius XI
One must neither pray nor sing psalms with heretics, and whoever shall communicate with those who are cut off from the communion of the Church, whether clergy or layman: let him be excommunicated. Council of Carthage
No one shall pray in common with heretics and schismatics. Council of Laodicea
Oh, you and your pre-Vatican II Church teaching!!
Yes that’s a plus compared with the “ religion of peace” ( boy if there was ever a case for False Advertising, there it is!!! ). Have a happy day, I need to check outta here fir awhile, best, fhc
How is it possible to square praying to false gods or encouraging others to pray to false gods with the First Commandment? To consider prayer to false gods a "weapon" is seriously irrational.
When Padre Pio felt the need of a weapon, he called for his Rosary.
Or witch doctors or animists or Buddhists, etc. (who were all invited to pray for peace to their false gods at Assisi).
Muslims and Jews reject Christ, yet the Vicar of Christ invites them to pray with him. Are we to believe that after the prohibitions declared by previous Councils and Popes, the Holy Ghost has now changed His mind regarding the error of this type of religious co-mingling?

"...they have misled my people, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace..."
-- Ezekiel 13:10a
Is that Francis? Looks like an abominable Charismatic meeting. He’s getting hands laid on him by those weirdos?
No, this was the recent “Catholic” Charismatic meeting Francis attended and got prayed over:

Yuck.
But, yes, that is Francis getting blessings from Protestant ministers.
