Apparently most of the higher-ups (Bishops and Cardinals)of the Church are either complicit in this or don’t care enough to raise a stink about it.

The reality of it is this has been going on since the promulgation of the new ecumenical religion of Vatican II. This is not just a Francis thing. Unfortunately, most Catholics don't want to admit to it (ie. they think Benedict was some sort of anomaly...Blue Mosque anyone?). And most, if not all, prelates are complicit.

We need divine intervention at this point.

Item number 3 comes very close...but close isn’t going to be enough at judgement time.

This whole letter sounds like the church is begging them for mercy. I don’t see any redeeming qualities in this papal statement.

...Nevertheless, the thoughts of the Creator of the world are not within the power of man to reach them, ‘for our ways are not His ways, nor are our thoughts His thoughts.’

And all these matters of Jesus of Nazareth and that of the Ishmaelite who arose after him are only to straighten the way of the king Messiah and to fix the entire world, to serve God as one, as it is stated (Zephaniah 3:9)...

Uh, yo, Popemeister, what about the Jews? You know, our elder brethren? The Chosen People?
Oh, wait. Wouldn’t want to mention THOSE people, you might REALLY offend the Muslims.

Why is a Catholic Cardinal calling the children of satan (moslems) “brother”?

No one receives mercy through Islam. It is of the spirit of antichrist, a creation of all that is opposed to The Lord. Nothing about Islam as a religion is to be respected in the sense the article seems to indicate. May as well do reverence to Scientology or the Moonies.

Does that mean that Muslums are immoral? Actually, no, many practicing Muslims are trying to be moral as they have been taught to be moral (there are issues with what is taught, but they don’t get everything wrong).

Morality, both the knowledge of good and evil and the art of discriminating against the latter in favor of the former, is neither here nor there ... Islam is simply helpless, impotent, to make men holy because it comes from men and demons and not from God.

No one is justified by Islam. No one.

To be sure, it is as a worldly/practical measure better to be trying to be moral than to be flagrantly wicked, but people being nice and decent folk as the charge headlong into Hell that is not how Christians should be content to leave things.

Is the Church Catholic anymore?

We know it's not Christian anymore.

Does this idiot know that the USSR had to find a Bulgarian Muslim to try to kill John Paul II because no Russian in the KGB would do it?

The title is misleading...It should say 'Catholics and muzlims'...There's not a real Christian anywhere who would mistake God's mercy being attained at Mecca...These Catholic clergy are false teachers, anti-christs...

Muzlims have no light in them...They reject the giver of light, Jesus Christ...

2Co_6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
Eph_5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

These clergy aren’t Catholic.

French cardinal His Eminence Jean-Louis Tauran, President of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue

Well they're certainly not Jehovah Witnesses...

Utter heretical garbage from someone who isn’t even really Pope. God help us.
