The Counsel of Trent

From Messa in Latino:

On Holy Thursday, in the Church of San Lorenzo, in central Trent, [Father Giorgio Butterini, a Franciscan,] delivered to his faithful a leaflet of prayers, including the following: "In the name of Allah, the Compassionate and the Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, the Compassionate, the Merciful, the King of Judgment Day. We worship you, and we ask you for your help, guide us on the path of righteousness..."

What would be the point in handing out prayers from a foreign religion?

Mere inclusiveness?

Open contempt of the 1st Commandment?

This prayer doesn't even pretend that muslims worship the same God, it puts the very weak in their faith NO Catholics through the motions of saying a muslim prayer.

Did the priest hand out prayer rugs also? Just to make the picture complete?

Did the parishioners just stand around and look at each other?
