(Reuters) - Pope Francis said on Sunday that equating Islam with violence was wrong and called on Muslim leaders to issue a global condemnation of terrorism to help dispel the stereotype.

 

Like this is really going to happen.

It's not Catholic bashing. Some people believe that Catholic teaching is heretical, but whether it is or not is kind of irrelevant because they're becoming heretical anyway like so many other Churches. They're not the only ones.

I don't expect Church leaders to understand Muslim teachings anyway, it's not their job. They are meant to know the Bible, not the Q'uran. However, in the interests of Common Sense they should study it anyway - otherwise they should keep their mouths shut and not speak of things of which they know nothing.

Two Choices, It Is Either The LORD

 

Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. Jeremiah 17:7-8

 

Or It's Man

 

Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. Jeremiah 17:5-6

 

Choose Wisely

 

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. Matthew 2:1-2

Sorry but the Pope is wrong.  Islam is rooted in violence, murder, death, bloodshed.  It is an extremely violent ideology.  Islam is barbaric and should be ejected from every civilized nation in which it is exits.

Hey there mr. pope.......what do you mean by "we have our own fundalmentalists".   What is wrong with that?  Fundamentalism is not extremism.

You're right.   But Liberals have hi-jacked the word "fundamentalist."   They constantly refer to Muslim terrorists as fundamentalist in order to get the average person to associate the word "fundamentalist" to terrorism.   Then they start referring to conservative Christians as "fundamentalists." 

 

A Christian fundamentalist is simply someone who holds the fundamental truths of the Bible.   But in Liberalism, "truth" is the new hate speech.   So they have now fraudulently associated Christian fundamentalists with terrorists in the minds of some people.

shilo357...... I follow you on that.  I am a fundy for sure.  Its just one more thing that we have to elaborate on to a non believer before we even get to the first step of sharing the Gospel. 

 

I wonder how long before even a football coach will be able to tell the team........we are working on fundamentals today!

Where I work there are a lot of Muslims, they seem to be kind and are very polite.  Most Muslims in the U.S. (the ones that I know personally) are not violent at all, would they be considered "back-sliders" by those Muslims who actively participate, promote and encourage violence?
