Pope Calls For Respect Between Christians And Muslims by Controversy: 6:20am On Aug 12, 2013
Pope Francis reached out to Muslims on Sunday to mark the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan and called on them and Christians to promote mutual respect.

“I want to send a hello to Muslims around the world, our brothers, who a short time ago celebrated the conclusion of the month of Ramadan,” the pontiff said in front of thousands of the faithful gathered for his Angelus blessing in St Peter’s Square.

“I hope that Christians and Muslims engage to promote mutual respect, especially through the education of new generations,” he said.

It was the pope’s second message to Muslim communities recently.


On August 2, Francis sent a text “as an expression of esteem and friendship to all Muslims, especially their religious leaders”.

In his text, he also called on both religions to “avoid unjustified or defamatory criticism” of each other.

The pontiff on Sunday also addressed Catholics, exhorting them to “love of God”, who has “a name, and a face; he is called Jesus Christ”, he said departing from his prepared script.

“That is the love which gives value and beauty to everything: the family, work, study, friendship, the arts and every human activity,” he said to the cheers of the faithful.

Just before taking leave of the crowd, Francis gave his now traditional farewell of “good Sunday and a good appetite” before adding a “goodbye” as if he wanted to linger a little longer.

DANILSA: The pope is a disgrace to humanity if he does not know that Jesus is not God. just imagine after studies throughout his whole life cant differentiate Jesus and God.

Dear bible student,
The reason why catholics talk about holy trinity is because God is God the father, the creator of the world, God the son in the person and form of Jesus Christ and God the holy spirit upon the descent of the holy spirit on the disciples.

I take it you have at least a masters degree in Theology and Philosophy. Anything short of that... I am pretty sure you know what the "rest" means.

Which Media?

Was is the media that bombed the church @ Madalla?
Is it the media that shouts Allah akbar when it starts trowing bombs?
Is the media now that is boko haram that preaches jihad and also maiming people all around?

Why would i learn about a religion even when the learned ones are backing the killers themselves?

My dear nice one from u.

A friend of mine dat attend rccg came to my house for some discussion, along the line he saw d crucifix in my house and asked if am a catholic i said yes am a staunch catholic, he then asked if am aware that our pope is now a muslim, i told him dat never happened, he said his pastor said so in their last fellowship in the presence of the congregation, i was mad. This mere call for respect among the 2 dorminant religion in the world has been taken by some illiterate pastors as pope's endorsement and conversion to islam. I weep for fanatics n liars that use lies to win converts.
