This is obviously a mistake. These poor Muslims simply don’t understand their own religion. Surely that most learned of imams, Pope Francis, is on his way to Jalingo now to explain to them how authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject every form of violence.
“Bomber kills four, suspected herders attack Catholic seminary,” by Njadvara Musa and Charles Akpeji, Guardian (Nigeria), May 29, 2018 (spelling and grammar as in the original):
Four people have been killed and seven others injured in the latest Boko Haram attack in the restive town of Konduga in Borno, the police confirmed on yesterday.This is as gunmen suspected to be Fulani herders yesterday launched an attack on the Catholic Secret Heart Minor Seminary located in Jalingo the capital of Taraba State….
The catholic Bishop of Jalingo Dioceses, Charles Hammawa, confirmed that one of his priests was “badly wounded.”The Bishop, who described the attack as “regrettable,” admonished the government to be more proactive with the issue of security in the state and the country at large.
Visibly dejected he said “ it is regrettable as a church because we are only modeling the children to be good citizens of Nigeria and the world at large.”Appreciating God that no life was lost, he however expressed dismay at the way and manner “ Rev. Father Koba, was shot in the leg.”
Terry Gain says
Obviously Pope Francis hasn’t washed enough Muslim feet.
boakai ngombu says
could it be that the masters of this seminary are some who may disagree with PaPa and are producing priests who present less an RC character than envangelical?
boakai ngombu says
excuse: evangelical

HOW MANY DEAD ROMAN CATHOLICS WILL IT TAKE for Dope Francis to realize that ISLAM HATES CHRISTIANS.
Individual Muslims may have wonderful qualities, but the DOCTRINE OF AL WALAA WAL BARAA TEACHES HATRED OF JEWS and CHRISTIANS.
DOES DOPE FRANCIS not know that? Is he willfully BLIND?
Bill says
Jorge Mario Bergoglio is not simply willfully blind. He is that for sure. But his willfullness is more sinister. He is a Communist. That is his “religion” and his passion. He hates the USA, hates capitalism, loves Fidel and the whole parade of Communist tyrants. He knows that western civilization must be put into chaos in order for global Communism to ultimately rule. If Islam is the best tool for that job, Jorge is fine with that.
He will offer, maybe, some bland dissembling platitudes in response to this latest attack.
Anthony Shaddox says
Anyone that has read the Koran knows that this is exactly what Mohamad called for. It promotes “Blessed Terror” in the quest for domination and submission to Islam. I think he should try reading the book.
mortimer says
JB, you have not read Islam’s PRIMARY SOURCE TEXTS (which are voluminous) and yet, preposterously, you present yourself as a spontaneous, self-styled expert on Islam. You make the counterjihad look moronic, uniformed and simplistic. I resent you stating your uninformed opinions as ‘facts’.
Without ENCYCLOPAEDIC KNOWLEDGE of Islam, you are totally unable to generalize the way you do.
Savvy Kafir says
Mortimer, that is ABSURD.
Not everyone has the time to read & memorize all of those voluminous source texts. But it’s really not that difficult to get the gist of Islam. Jay Boo has got it. And the more people who speak out against this vile ideology, the better — even if they’re not scholars on the subject.
Also, comments here do not have to be essay-length texts dripping with erudition to be valuable.
You do your thing. Let Jay Boo do his.
mortimer says
SK, ARE YOU A BIGOT TOO?

What did Savvy Kafir say that was bigoted?
Ray Jarman says
I agree with Jay Boo in that there is no such thing as partly pregnant. Muslims either agree with their misogynic cult founder or not and if not, they are not muslims. As a Christian, I find no fault with Jesus Christ’s teachings even though some of his instructions such as loving one’s enemies, I find difficult to obey. When a groups aim is to convert by any means (to include mass murder), I find it hard to love them. Hell, I don’t even want to tolerate them in the world, much less in my nation.
gravenimage says
Mortimer, I have read the Qur’an in multiple translations, large numbers of Sahih Hadith, the Sira, compendiums of Islamic law like the Reliance of the Traveller, and influential Muslim scholars like Al Ghazali.
And I completely agree with what Jay Boo said–Islam *is* about rape, pillaging, and murder–and forced submission. Deeper and wider readings of Islamic source material simply confirm this. Why would you disagree?
mortimer says
GI, I KNOW THE DOCTRINES BETTER THAN MOST HERE. BIGOTRY IS WRONG.
JB is a class one BIGOT.
Lydia Church says
Mortimer, this is about exposing the EVIL DOCTRINES OF THE QURAN, WHICH IS ISLAM, and dictate the actions of terrorists and the like, as we see on a daily basis.
We have enough citations from the quran on JW to prove that fact, but all we need is one of them, not all the text.
Exposing evil is not ‘bigotry.’
I (and I think I speak for many on here at JW) thought you were on the same page here.
Hmmm. Are you on some ‘new meds’ or something?
Just asking out of concern. I won’t be checking back for a reply as I tend to be one of those ‘surf through this section and move on’ types, so spare the salty retorts.
Be well.
gravenimage says
Mortimer, I did not imply that you are not knowledgeable about the texts of Islam–in fact, I have often complimented you on this.
Since you are so well-read on this subject, you should well know that much of Islam *is* largely about rape, pillaging, and murder–it is in no way bigoted to note this.
Savvy Kafir says
Mortimer — The only people who have ever suggested that I might be a “bigot” are politically correct, Islam-friendly liberals who don’t know the first thing about Islam.
It seems you have something in common with the PC Friends Of Islam at Daily Kos, etc.

Ramadan in Nigeria: Muslim gunman attack Catholic seminary, priest “badly wounded”
……………………….
Horrible–this poor man. More pious bloodshed from the “religion of peace”.
Julea Bacall says
Has anyone heard of the Nigerian refugee in Poland who is being extradited to US for Cybercrimes stealing something like 2B $ from accounts? There is some new law about cyberhacking I know nothing about but it was good to her some of our people in Nigeria are not all Clowns. Sometimes I get the feeling that the whole world is just a bunch of fool clowns trying to siphon their own take but it somewhat reassures me to hear this…….from A foreign paper in Nigeria. Some of Our people are good for something.
Julea Bacall says
I understand what you mean when you get down to the core goals. The complicated part is that so many Muslims say—you are not reading right and so make a new sect with some differences that do not ever effect the original goal-which is simple). They all say o one read it right depending on personal intentions, motives. So come all the stories and and attempts to make it look better. But I agree, when you break it down to GOAL…its simple to understand.Simple. But to fix it is any but simple to the millions of Muslims who believe they know best about the details
Today, (maybe tomorrow I’ll get other ideas) I think we should just not allow the AntiSemitic parts (all of them) or the part that says something like ‘you may not want to fight but WE (the angels) Know better than you and just OBEY.’ plus any other things to incite….which is against free speech. Free speech does not allow Inciting people or asking for violence or mob action. Too bad but Mosques have to be recorded and translated.
