"It is not the God who revealed himself to Moses and Jacob; nor the God who, in Jesus Christ, walked this earth and died and rose to save humanity; nor the God worshipped by the Muslim people, who is almighty and merciful," he said.

Damn.

He was doing so well for a while, but then completely blew it at the end.

The so-called "god" of the mo-slimes is neither almighty nor merciful.

Just read their "holy" book, consider their prophet, and look at their deeds.

It's nothing more than an insane death cult.

Period.

I hope the Brits will be energized with a stronger faith. The stories from Sept 11 mentioned a LOT of people returning to church and to prayer after the tragedy. (It only seemed to last a few weeks but at least they knew where to turn in a crisis)

Animals have no religion, and they should be put on the endangered species list.

Consider this. Anton Levay founded a "church" of satan. In this effort he purpetrated great evil and yet the G-d he recognized and actively worked against was the G-d of the bible.

The religion of these bombers is a perversion of morality. Yet it is inescapable that Islam recognizes, but in my view does not honor, the G-d of Moses and Abraham and Jesus.

It would be comforting to most Christians and Jews to be able to deny this, much as we would like to distance ourselves from a crazy relative, but to engage in error needlessly will produce no benefit.

Putting the cloak of ecumenical pluralism over Islam is a cover-up.

>>A British cardinal has condemned the "false" religion of terrorists who murdered about 50 civilians in a series of bomb attacks July 7 in London. <<

That's nice.

Now what have the leaders of the religion of 'piece' had to say?

It is refreshing to see some Christian leaders beginning to understand who these terrorits really are. Too many church leaders in the US are quick to blame the US for causing the terror and seek an end to the terror by holding hands and singing kumbayas. These jihadists seek an end to Christianity and all of its ideals.

I'm with you. I was celebrating, FINALLY, a man of God who gets it -- but he had to blow it.

Unfortunately, this cardinal does not seem to understand: the problem is not a false religion possessed by terrorists but a false religion possessed by Muslims.

The well thought-out tactical lip-service 1400 yrs ago was brilliant, I would say, but in terms of boots-on-the-ground ever since......well, you can fnish this sentence.....

The Muslim god is Satan, no more, no less.

Satan is the great deceiver and he has deceived these people ever since the pedophile Mohamed made up this religion.

...said the cardinal, before asking: "Who is their god?

Cardinal, their god is an idol, a meteorite they bow and pray to at noon every day. Nuke it and their religion is over, proving to them and the world their "god" is not all-powerful...

I am very disappointed that every single Christian and Jewish religious leader hasn't spoken out loud and clear on the fact that Islam is a false religion. IMO it would be very powerful to have sermons that show that the entire world of Islam is an abomination.

The Muslims who call their religion of peace , some of them may believe that--I doubt it. But even those who make that claim are enablers of people who live to kill and maim. How many times has a terrorist been turned over by the Imams, The Mullahs who claim to be peaceful? Have they worked at all to stop these terrorists? If they have I havent read of it. They proclaim the murders as atrocities when they are forced into it, but then they make excuses for the killers.

Calling Franklin Graham. A Cardinal in England repeated what you said.

Islam is a religion that is free to be interpreted and practiced in a personal manner.

Muslims who practice their defense of Allah by vengeance, bombings and violence are defending him in the name of Jihad.

Such behavior is perfectly acceptable and justfiable within the beliefs of Islam. Read all about it in all of the apologia printed copiously throughout the media.
