The Dangerous Ignorance of the US Bishops

Somehow, this is not a surprise.  The USCCB's staff is crawling with Ultra-Left Globaloney twits--but even then, this is over the top. 

 ...On the same day that news broke of an Islamist attack on a Catholic Parish in the Congo that left 64 dead and many wounded, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops published a 15-page booklet, “Islamophobia: A Guide for U.S. Catholics on Anti-Muslim Bigotry.”

The purpose of the booklet is to warn Catholics about “the rising tide of anti-Muslim sentiment.”...

Most of the "anti-Muslim sentiment" in this country is promoted and pushed by Israel sympathizers such as 'Tel Aviv Mark' Levin and the Senator from Jerusalem, Ted Cruz.  But be that as it may, Kilpatrick mentions a few VERY significant differences between Catholicism and Muhammedanism.

 

...It’s true there are similarities between Islam and Christianity but there are also deep differences. As Duffner admits, there are “notable theological differences,” but she doesn’t say what they are. So, for the sake of balance, here’s a short list:

• Christians believe in the equality of men and women; Muslims don’t.
• Christians believe polygamy is wrong; Muslim believe each man is entitled to four wives.
• Christians believe child marriage is wrong; Muslims, following the example of Muhammad, say it’s acceptable.
• Christians believe that a man who spends his life in sexual pursuits is unlikely to get to Heaven; Muslims believe that a man who fights for the sake of Allah will be rewarded in Paradise with 72 eternally youthful virgins.
• Christians believe in the Trinity; Muslims believe it is a great sin to believe in the Trinity.
• Christians believe in the Incarnation; Muslims believe that Jesus was only a man.
• Christians believe that Jesus was crucified; Muslims say He was not.
• Christians believe that a person who leaves his faith should be prayed for; Muslims believe that apostates should be killed.

Perhaps the Bishops were asleep when this was reviewed and promulgated.

Or perhaps the Bishops should set about firing every single twit who pushed this document.

Of the two choices, my vote can be voiced by The Donald:  "YOU'RE FIRED!!"
