“You apparently insist on confusing “whatever an anonymous blog says” with “documented fact.”


And you apparently insist to dodge the issue entirely when faced with an insurmountable argument. Unfortunately, you still distort it. It is not that he prayed ISLAMIC prayers. It’s that he prayed WITH Muslims, an ecumenical prayer as if all present were equals, despite their prayers to entirely different gods. He even mentions Allah, as if he can hear prayers the same as our God.

To pray with them, under any form, as if speaking to the same deity, or even as if they are equals in any way, is to commune with infidels and give their religion a respect and authority they do not deserve.

2 Corinthians 11:12
And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.

We are to stand as outcasts and warriors against a world that would have us exist as only “just another religion,” with no claims of exclusivity. But Christ is exclusive, and their religion is antiChrist. Our duty, then, is to evangelize them, not humor them.

Again, this is an unsubstantiated assertion.

He met with them and thanked them for their advocacy of the kidnap victims - that's documented.

The supposed liturgical activity is not.
