He served as Archbishop of Washington, D.C.(imagine that) from 2001 to 2006, and was elevated to the cardinalate in 2001. In Catholic theology, to be a prophet, to earn that title, one must be divinely inspired. To call Mohammed “The Prophet”, as he does, is to claim that Mohammed[PBUH] is a true prophet, inspired by God.

I’m Catholic, by the way, and this guy couldn’t be more wrong. I strongly suspect he is of the infamous Alinsky wing of the Church. Nobody, as they say, is perfect.


Catholic Cardinal Theodore McCarrick offered Islamic religious phrases and insisted that Islam shares foundational rules with Christianity, during a Sept. 10 press conference in D.C.

“In the name of God, the Merciful and Compassionate,” McCarrick said as he introduced himself to the audience at a meeting arranged by the Muslim Public Affairs Council. That praise of the Islamic deity is an important phrase in Islam, is found more than 100 times in the Koran, and is akin to the Catholic prayer, ”In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”

McCarrick next claimed that “Catholic social teaching is based on the dignity of the human person… [and] as you study the holy Koran, as you study Islam, basically, this is what Muhammad the prophet, peace be upon him, has been teaching.”

McCarrick was 71 when 19 Muslims brought Islam to the public eye by murdering 3,000 Americans on 9/11. He is one of the 213 Cardinals of the Catholic church, but is too old to vote in church debates.

There are a handful of, if not many similarities between catholicism and Islam. I wont be surprised if they merge tomorrow, after all both founders of the two religions are dead men

Jesus has said so many things, one of which is having access to the Father through Him alone, and you still don't believe Him? Ain't you sick?

Is this true?

If it is then you need to question some things you've been believing in without proofs.

I don't know for I have not read about him in scriptures and I can not judge. I believe there are true prophets of God here on earth living with us who were not in the scriptures. But whose prophet do you think Mohammed was?

The christians always have silly explanations to give. If you point out contradictions in the buybull to them they will tell you that you dont have the spirit. Keep fooling urselves

Satanic people.

What did the Cardinal say that warrants you calling us Catholics "satanic?"

We see your pastors feeding you snakes and petrol...and making you come to service naked and we don't call you "satanic."
