They're still pushing the argument that violent Islam is an aberration and not an intrinsic part of its history.

Dialogue implies the presence of reason and rationality. As Bendict XVI pointed out at Regensburg, according to Muslim teaching, the God of Islam does not act rationally...."God is absolutely transcendent. His will is not bound up with any of our categories, even that of rationality."

How is dialogue possible with followers of an irrational god?

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs has strongly reaffirmed its commitment to engage in dialogue with Muslims.

Surprise, surprise.

Lord, send us a Catholic pope to repeal Vatican II and all of its heresies.

The USCCB. These people are incapable of rational thought..just like the followers of ROP..

Why don’t they just start bowing to Mecca?

Their sucking up to the ACA, and open borders is working out so well for us Catholic Peons.

Earth calling USCCB: In order for you Infidels to have a meaningful dialog with Islam, you're going to have to die, convert to Islam, or be enslaved by it. That's the kind of people you are dealing with and Muslims lie when they open their mouths. For people who portray themselves as educated about other religions, how come the members of the USCCB are so incredibly naive and stupid?

This was posted in a thread at Jihadwatch.org recently and plays a part to the pathetic interpretations cementing this insanity:
841 The Church’s relationship with the Muslims. “The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.”330
