Another Ramadan is upon us, and as is always the case, the eager-to-be-fooled infidels are out in force. A Catholic diocese in Italy has just called upon priests and laypeople to seek out opportunities to participate in Ramadan observances, as a gesture of goodwill toward Muslims. When will Muslim leaders tell Muslims to participate in Christian worship to show friendship with Christians? Don’t hold your breath.
The Catholic Herald reported Friday that the Italian diocese of Bergamo is “instructing its priests to participate in Islamic rituals, citing Pope Francis’ directives on interreligious dialogue.”

If the Aztecs were still around would they participate in human sacrifice?

In other words, pray to Satan.

I pray my Muslim coworker and her family will accept Jesus as lord and savior. God loves them but they must love Him and Jesus in return.

Never going to happen, Frank. The Catholic Church already has a lot to answer for in their support of the illegal alien invasion.

Yea, right. Hope the people in this diocese tell the diocese to kiss both sides of their butts.

If I were in that diocese, my church envelope that Sunday would be empty.

A millennia ago, the church would have seized Islamic assets, burned Islamic adherents at the stake and launched another Crusade. Now they encourage worshipping false gods.
And this is why I despise the “church”.

Hard to be Christian if you don't believe what Jesus taught...and this diocese is ignoring Jesus' own teaching that He is the only way to God.
Period.

When I was searching for a religion I looked into Catholicism. I decided it wasn't a good fit, but never doubted their dedication to their faith or their honor. Now I do.

In the Dome of the Rock — the Islamic structure on top of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem — indeed, on top of the very threshing floor (quite visible even today) where both Temples were built — is a large, prominent inscription in Arabic.
It says “Allah has no son.”

I’m a Catholic and I pray for my Muslim friends. And Jewish ones, too. Both are actually offspring of Abraham, but with different histories. Both seem to have a veil over their eyes, as far as faith is concerned. Christians are adopted children of the Almighty God. Muslims judge us, as westerners and a so-called “Christian” country. We might do well to think of how Christian countries like ours have treated places like Syria, Afghanistan and many other Islamic countries. Do you think we live up to our Christian teachings? I don’t. In this Lenten season of reflection and repentance, think about the words of the Bible in 2 Chronicles 7:14 if my people who belong to me will humbly pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.

It would take a lot to drive me away from the faith I have had all my life, but the pope and an Archdiocese like this are starting to get there.

Another reason to find your own spirituality and not 'learned' men in robes and glitter.
