Pope Francis: “Koran And Holy Bible Are The Same”
July 23, 2015


This is amazing. How sad is it that the pope is bowing to political correctness.
Check it out:

On Monday the Bishop Of Rome addressed Catholic followers regarding the dire importance of exhibiting religious tolerance. During his hour-long speech, a smiling Pope Francis was quoted telling the Vatican’s guests that the Koran, and the spiritual teachings contained therein, are just as valid as the Holy Bible.

“Jesus Christ, Mohammed, Jehovah, Allah. These are all names employed to describe an entity that is distinctly the same across the world. For centuries, blood has been needlessly shed because of the desire to segregate our faiths. This, however, should be the very concept which unites us as people, as nations, and as a world bound by faith. Together, we can bring about an unprecedented age of peace, all we need to achieve such a state is respect each others beliefs, for we are all children of God regardless of the name we choose to address him by. We can accomplish miraculous things in the world by merging our faiths, and the time for such a movement is now. No longer shall we slaughter our neighbors over differences in reference to their God.”

The pontiff drew harsh criticisms in December after photos of the 78-year-old Catholic leader was released depicting Pope Francis kissing a Koran. The Muslim Holy Book was given to Francis during a meeting with Muslim leaders after a lengthy Muslim prayer held at the Vatican.

  • No, that is an error. Contrary to sentimentalist wide spread belief, we are not all children of God. We are born as children of the world , subject to a certain dominion of the devil. We become children of God only by Baptism in the Holy and Apostolic Roman Catholic Church, the Ark of human salvation.
    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • Thank you M.A.  

    Further digging reveals it is a fake story and it's been circulating for quite awhile.

    Pope Francis - Bible Koran statement debunked

    [/quote]National Report is a popular and often controversial fake news “fauxtire” website that continually publishes fake news. It had a disclaimer that reads –

        National Report is a news and political satire web publication, which may or may not use real names, often in semi-real or mostly fictitious ways. All news articles contained within National Report are fiction, and presumably fake news.

    This ultimately means National Report is just one of many websites that publish fake news under the guise of satire. We refer to this as “fauxtire”. You can read more about fake news fauxtire websites here and how they differ from real satire sites.

  • The important point however is that we thought this could be true, that this is not a big step in apostacy for P. Francis.

    Yes, every man comes into this world, as a child of wrath.

    Do the words "heretical utterings" come to mind? In the Catholic Church, one would be excommunicated or burned for such lunacy.

    The only true "merging of faiths" will come when the unbelievers convert to the Catholic Faith.

    Indeed, with Frankie it wasn't at all surprising to think that this was true. I'd say it's more surprising that it's not true! It's not very good satire, using something he'll probably say next week anyway.

    That wouldn't be a "merging of faiths" though, that would be a merging or people into the one true Faith.

    Call it what you want that is the idea, that all the people accept the Catholic Faith.
