Pope Francis: Protector of Prophet Mohammad and a Friend to Islam?


Alan: I do not share the following views. 
             I publish them to focus the benightedness of many nominal Christians.

Pope Francis: Protector of Prophet Mohammad and a Friend to Islam? HT: LogansWarning. (Telegraph).
Over the years I have found it astonishing how the Vatican cowardly sits there and watches as Europe slowly gets devoured by the Islamic ‘Jihad’. Not only didn’t they do anything to stop Islam, they actually aided in the destruction of Western Civilization.So when the new Pope was elected on March 13th, my first thought was what were his views on Islam? Unfortunately today I found that answer.
Pope promises ‘respect’ for all world religions.

Pope Francis on Wednesday promised “friendship and respect” for all faiths at a meeting with representatives of major world religions in the Vatican in which he said he felt “close” to non-believers.Link to Article

Now I know that some readers might be thinking, “what do you expect him to do, call for war on Islam?” No, I really do not expect that, but I do expect the so called leader of the Church not to cuddle up with what is out to destroy Christianity!

After reading Pope Francis’ call for respect of the ideology of the enemy, I decided to do a little more research, and it only gets worse. In the past Pope Francis actually took a brazen stand for Prophet Mohammad!

Pope Francis’ run-in with Benedict XVI over the Prophet Mohammed.

Pope Francis came close to losing his position within the Catholic Church after he criticised his predecessor seven years ago.

In 2005, then Pope Benedict quoted from an obscure medieval text which declared that the Prophet Mohammed, founder of the Islamic faith, was “evil and inhuman”, enraging the Muslim population and causing attacks on churches throughout the world before an apology was issued.

Reacting within days to the statements, speaking through a spokesman to Newsweek Argentina, then Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio declared his “unhappiness” with the statements, made at the University of Regensburg in Germany, and encouraged many of his subordinates with the Church to do the same.

Pope Benedict’s statement don’t reflect my own opinions”, the then Archbishop of Buenos Aires declared. “These statements will serve to destroy in 20 seconds the careful construction of a relationship with Islam that Pope John Paul II built over the last twenty years”.

What relationship would that be? The one of Christians being persecuted across the Islamic world?

The Vatican reacted quickly, removing one subordinate, Joaquín Piña the Archbishop of Puerto Iguazú from his post within four days of his making similar statements to the Argentine national media, sending a clear statement to Cardinal Bergoglio that he would be next should he choose to persist.

Reacting to the threats from Rome, Cardinal Bergoglio cancelled his plans to fly to Rome, choosing to boycott the second synod that Pope Benedict had called during his tenure as pontiff. Link to Article

Hmmmm…..“Violence does not build up the kingdom of God, the kingdom of humanity. On the contrary, it is a favorite instrument of the Antichrist, however idealistic its religious motivation may be,” ~ Pope Benedict XVI.…..I wonder which ‘religion’ he was talking about?
