Muslim Converts to Christ Beg Pope Francis to Stop Deceiving Himself
The Stream ^ | 1/10/18 | John Zmirak

Posted on 01/13/2018 5:40:16 PM PST by marshmallow

Last year, Jason Jones and I wrote at The Stream to Pope Francis. We begged him to reconsider his statements on Muslim immigration. This in the wake of the murder of French priest Fr. Jacques Hamel. Muslims slit that priest’s throat while he was saying Mass. Not in Egypt or Iraq. In France.

Now a much more powerful document has appeared. The authors? Men and women who risked Fr. Hamel’s fate. Indeed, from an orthodox Muslim point of view, they invited it. The signers are converts from Islam to Christianity. There’s a penalty for that in Muslim sharia. And hence in many Muslim countries, such as our “ally” Saudi Arabia. It’s death. Where the government won’t cooperate, family members sometimes murder converts from Islam to other faiths, for impugning their families’ “honor.” An Ohio girl fled her immigrant parents in 2009 when they learned she’d become a Christian. ISIS regularly issues threats against “apostates” like these authors.

The Voice of the Martyrs

Please read this prophetic document. Read every word. It speaks in the voice of the early Christians. Of St. Paul and of Justin Martyr. Those believers defended their faith. They admitted that it might cost them their lives. That’s the risk these modern Christians have taken. And they wonder why the shepherd of one billion Catholics keeps saying things about Islam that simply aren’t true. First some key passages from the letter. Then some analysis.

The authors open:

Many of us have tried to contact you, on many occasions and for several years, and we have never received the slightest acknowledgement of our letters or requests for meetings. You do not like to beat around the bush, and neither do we, so allow us to say frankly that we do not understand your...

Dear sir,

Thank you for your efforts, but they are in vain.

The pope is a purposeful liar, and he is Evil.

Islamophiles never learn until the scimitar is slicing their neck.

Unbelievable.

He’s in synch with globalists who want to let them rise up to kill Europeans and Americans and Jews and Christians in such great numbers that we’ll cry out for the New World Order to “save us.”

I’m in the same boat, hoping for a real fisherman to lead.

OK, here’s the deal.

When I wuz a kid, the Catholic kids got bussed off once a week or so to get Instruction. No big deal. They came back just fine.

Then decades later Pope John Paul got all sorts of Europe straitened out. Good Deal. A Mench (note that Jesus was a Jew) .

Today? Total disaster. The current pope needs to be put down or the Catholic Church will suffer forevermore.
