Absolute BS... There is NO commonality between the Catholic Faith and the Mohammadean heresy. Islam denies Christ.
This common ground crap is a Trojan Horse, and I pray Pope Benedict XVI knows better than to appease the ecuminist fanatics who dream of a one world religion.
To believe commonality exists between Islam and Christianity is to entreat superficial platitudes at best, and implicitly deny the core of Chritian dogma at worst.
As Wikpedia is often suspect, it would be of great service here if you could reference the congressional record or the Library of Congress for the primary source documentation of the quote. I have heard or read of this quote several times previous, but have not had success in finding the primary source.
The signs of common grounds... 911, no church nor cathedrals in Saudi Arabia, no Temple on Temle Mount etc...
I guess not.
Why are we afraid to nuke those SOBs and keep pretending we have common grounds?
Indeed. The term “common ground” is nearly always a Trojan horse, and is one when bandied about by Islam.
Why a need to establish “common ground” anyway ?
Why not just say we are not alike and we do not share any commonality , but that is no reason for Islam to kill or to impose theocracy throughout the world.
Islam has been slaughtering people and grabbing land in Phillipines, Nigeria, Somalia etc. Islam is the murderer. They are the ones must change.
Churchill said;
“An appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile hoping it will eat him last.”
**and**
“There is no greater mistake than to suppose that platitudes, smooth words and timid policies offer a path to safety”
**and**
“What the horn is to the rhinoceros, what the sting is to the wasp, the Mohammadan faith is to Arabs”
What makes you think “the Pope has lost it”?
He hasn’t lost anything.
And he knows what he is about and what he is doing.
Sending a delegation to him doesn’t mean that there is any fait accompli.
I hope you get that.
The greatest problem the Catholic Church faces is its own auto-self-destruction through the sabotage of the Catholic Faith from within, and the resultant denial of the Creed by those at the top. This is the Fatima prophecy contained in the Third Secret, and is why the hierarchy has refused to obey Our Blessed Mother’s request that the Pope, in union with all the Bishops, consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
This is the central controversy of the Third Secret: that it was, according to Sister Lucia, to be revealed before 1960, when it “would become more clear” … a reference to the Ecumenical movement begun by Pope John XXIII and enacted by Pope Paul VI during Vatican II. The Modernist heresy is the corruption of the Faith by liberalism, and has given rise to such scandals as: the infiltration of Catholic seminaries by Communists, Masons, and homosexuals; the suppression of the Tridentine Mass of Saint Pope Pius V; and the corruption of the Catholic Liturgy.
If one studies the blasphemous events that occurred at the Prayer Meetings at Assisi (Assisi I and II) as were conducted in the presence of Pope John Paul II; if one studies the Hindu blasphemies and desecrations that occurred at the Fatima Shrine, and under the accepting eyes of both its rector and the local bishop… then the horror falling upon the Faithful is brought into clear view.
This is but one more opportunity to advance the devil’s agenda against the Catholic Faith. But be of good courage, because at Fatima the Blessed Virgin Mary promised that “In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, Russia will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted.” And, more importantly, Our Lord said “…and upon this rock I shall build My Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.”
In his speech at Regensburg two years ago, Pope Benedict XVI reached out to Muslims, but with two significant caveats: 1) he said that Muslim and Christian leaders must acknowledge that murder of the innocent is never “God’s will,” and 2) there must be reciprocity (there are mosques in Rome; where are the churches in Mecca?).
Still waiting...

The Muslims want the Pope to agree with them? That won’t happen. The Pope is, well, The Pope. There’s no one “head” over Islam to speak for all of Islam. This won’t happen and they can’t force it. In fact, trying to force it will work against them.
Somewhere I read that the Koran was originally a “how to get along with Christians who won’t accept “me” (Muhammad) as a real prophet when I know I’m a prophet and I’ll prove it by creating my own religion if you don’t believe me” manual.
Or What ?
When the Muslims practice reciprocity and allow the freedom to practice Christianity, build churches and proslytize without repercussion as is done in the West...... then they wil have my respect as a religion, but not my admission to anything.
And yes, their very dictum; tips the scales. . .
