No Matter Where I Am, a Catholic Church Is Always Home

Nice post.

According to Francis, Catholics and Muslims worship the same God. So next time just walk into a mosque instead of a church. Francis says it’s all the same, so Catholics should obey their pope.

Whatever Pope SkyPilot says.

Beautiful post.

Thanks!

“So next time just walk into a mosque instead of a church. Francis says it’s all the same, so Catholics should obey their pope.”

Are you drunk?

[SkyPilot]

No. I state a fact per the words of Pope Francis. Look them up.

[SkyPilot]

Also, you edited my post, and put quotes around it as to indicate (falsely) that those were my exact words. Why did you do that?

Do you want to go with Michael T. Snyder or learn what the Church actually teaches?

[SkyPilot]

The Bible teaches what is Truth. That is the ultimate authority, the Word of God. Francis said that Muslims worship that same God. That is a lie. The Koran says it is blasphemy to state that God has a Son. Muslims deny the divinity of Christ, and deny His Resurrection, and Salvation through the cross. This is not complicated. Either Francis is lying, or God's Word is false and we should all believe what the Muslims believe, because we all worship the same God. So, which is it?

No, you show me where Pope Francis said a mosque is the same as a church. You said: “So next time just walk into a mosque instead of a church. Francis says it’s all the same, so Catholics should obey their pope.”

[vladimir998]

“Also, you edited my post, and put quotes around it as to indicate (falsely) that those were my exact words. Why did you do that?”

This is every word you originally said:

“According to Francis, Catholics and Muslims worship the same God. So next time just walk into a mosque instead of a church. Francis says it’s all the same, so Catholics should obey their pope.”

YOU WROTE ALL OF THAT.

I commented on this part of your comments:

“So next time just walk into a mosque instead of a church. Francis says it’s all the same, so Catholics should obey their pope.”

YOU SAID ALL OF THAT.

I put it in quotes because YOU said it. And every word I posted were in fact your exact words. I posted two out of your three sentences - because those two sentences were the ones I was commenting on. I did nothing “falsely”.

And my question still stands: Are you drunk?

[SkyPilot]

Your obvious personal attack on whether I drink or not is meant to impugn my argument, but it isn't fooling anyone. I don't drink. You?

And again, you deliberately left out this portion of my post, and put the latter part in quotes as if to imply that was all that I said.

According to Francis, Catholics and Muslims worship the same God.

I asked you why, and you didn't answer. I know why. It is too damaging to your argument to admit the truth that Francis said Catholics and Muslims worship the same God.

Nice post. We tend to turn long road trips into pilgrimages whenever we can. There are some really amazing churches and shrines in this country built by saints. One of our favorite places is the basement perpetual adoration chapel in downtown Philadelphia, a war zone, at the National Shrine to St. Rita de Cascia. Down there you will find confession on demand and of course Jesus Christ Himself, humbly present under the form of bread. And a great sense of peace.

Thank you for the excellent link. I have two brothers and a sister who love to travel. Me, not as much. Thanks.
