German Catholics Urge Full Rights To Muslims

[MichelleSeeking]

It's so good to see Catholic Bishops standing by our Muslim bretheren. We Catholics have always been taught that Muslims believe in God and they go to heaven and that they are truly our bretheren. We are not taught to cut off every faith but our own and to snub non-Catholics. I sure hope that the Bishops are able to help win freedom for the Muslims in Germany.

We Catholics are always coming under fire for being respectful and peaceful with Muslims. We obviously have docturnal differences but that doesn't mean we have to hate one another. The most hilarious thing I ever saw was the scandalized reaction from non-Catholic Christians when Pope John Paul II was given a Qur'an as a gift by Muslim glergy and as a sign of respect, he kissed the Qur'an. The anti-Catholics went NUTS over that and they now claim that the Pope has added the Qur'an into the canon of Scripture and now we Catholics must must now "chant the Koran out loud daily, and pray to be delivered from Dajjal, or you will go to hell." **Sigh**

I hope and pray that peaceful dialog between Catholics and Muslims will always continue. Your kindness towards me on this forum and the kindness I, an "unbeliever", was shown in the Middle East has been proof enough of Muslim hospitality!

May our Muslim brothers and sisters in Germany and all through the world be granted religious freedom, just as Christians all through the world may be granted the same.

Thanks for posting this uplifting topic!
