Dialoguing with Islam

Charles-Martel

IMAGINE if Charles Martel had thought that the best approach to Islam was to “be present” while Muslims slaughtered infidels or if he had believed that there was “definitely not a clash between Islam and Christianity,” as “Cardinal” Petro Parolin, Secretary of State of the occupied Vatican, recently stated. The pronouncements on dialogue that emanate from the counterfeit Church of Conciliarism, which has overtaken the Catholic Church, render Martel and his warriors ridiculous swashbucklers who wasted their lives. As Thomas Droleskey writes:

While it is true that Christians and Mohammedans have lived for centuries in relative peace in such countries as Turkey, Iraq and Syria, this has been so because, at least for the most part, of the rule of “benevolent despots” who saw that it was in their own best interests to curb their own co-religionists’ natural desire to slay infidels. Even the pre-“Arab Spring” Egypt saw persecutions of Catholics and Coptic Rite Orthodox Christians by the regimes of both Anwar Sadat and Hosni Mubarak (see Not Interested in Assisi IIISpringing Back Into PowerTwo Figures Of Antichrist In Search Of “Moderate” Musselmen and Francis and Barry’s Religion of Peace).

For the likes Jorge Mario Bergoglio and Pietro Parolin to be correct, therefore, our true popes who called for the Crusades, staring with Blessed Pope Urban II on November 27, 1095, and numerous Catholic kings and saints were wrong, each and every one of them. Well, this is, of course, precisely what Bergoglio/Francis is saying, and it is what Giovanni Montini/Paul the Sick said at the United Masonic Nations Organization on October 4, 1965, the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi.

For the likes of Jorge Mario Bergoglio and Pietro Parolin to be correct, of course, Charles Martel at the Battle of Tours (Poitiers) on October 10, 732, was wrong. He should have “dialogued” with the Mohammedans invading France.

For the likes of Jorge Mario Bergoglio and Pietro Parolin to be correct, of course, Pope Innocent III, who gave his full support to both Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Dominic de Guzman in their respective efforts to launch religious communities, the Francisans and the Dominicans, that became responsible for the flowering of Christendom in the Thirteenth Century, had to be wrong when he called for the Fifth Crusade in 1213.

Mr. Frank Rega, the author of Saint Francis of Assisi and the Conversion of the Muslims, has just posted a large part of Pope Innocent III’s bull proclaiming the Fifth Crusade. Here is an excerpt:

For how can a man be said to love his neighbor as himself, in obedience to God’s command, when, knowing that his brothers, who are Christians in faith and in name, are held in the hands of the perfidious Saracens in dire imprisonment and are weighed down by the yoke of most heavy slavery, he does not do something effective to liberate them, thereby transgressing the command of that natural law which the Lord gave in the gospel, “Whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you also to them?”  Or perhaps you do not know that many thousands of Christians are being held in slavery and imprisonment in their hands, tortured by countless torments?

We are sure that, since we ought to put much more trust in divine mercy than in human power, we ought to fight such a conflict not so much with physical arms as with spiritual ones.

Fasting and almsgiving should be joined to prayer, so that with these wings the prayer itself may fly more easily and quickly to the most loving ears of God, who will mercifully listen to us at the appointed time.  And every day during the celebrations of Mass . . . the priest who is celebrating must chant this prayer over the altar:

“God, who disposes all things with marvelous providence, we humbly beseech thee to snatch from  the hands of the enemies of the cross the land which thine only-begotten son consecrated with his own blood and to restore it to Christian worship by mercifully directing in the way of eternal salvation the vows of the faithful here present, made for its liberation, through the same Christ Our Lord.” (Pope Innocent III calls for a crusade against the “perfidious Saracens”.)

This is my favorite passage in the Koran.  One translation refers to “polytheists.” These are Christians in Moslem thought as believing in the Trinity makes one a polytheist to Moslems.  How to “dialogue” with followers of Koran 9:5, consider: artillery shells, bombs, etc.

Realizing some might consider this blasphemous, the Master’s statement, Matthew 7:12, to be other than suicidal, should read, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you if you can, do unto others as they would do unto you if you must.”
