But, but, Pope Francis signed a paper with the Grand Sheikh of al-Azhar! But, but, Pope Francis said that authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Qur’an reject every form of violence! How could this be happening!
“Bomb in Catholic church in Democratic Republic of Congo ‘seriously injures’ two parishioners,” Catholic News Agency, June 28, 2021:
An explosion inside a Catholic church in the Democratic Republic of Congo has left at least two people “seriously injured,” according to the parish priest.
The early morning explosion on June 27 at Emmanuel-Butsili Parish in the town of Beni was caused by a homemade bomb that had been placed in the first row after the altar.
Fr. Isidore Kambale Masingo, the rector of the parish, told ACI Africa on the day of the attack that the “explosion inside the church occurred before the start of Sunday Mass.”
“The explosion took place around 6 a.m. when Holy Mass had not yet started. Two mothers were seriously injured and have been rushed to the hospital,” he said….
Msgr. Laurent Sondirya, the vicar general of the diocese of Butemb-Beni, told local media that he believes the attackers were “targeting a large crowd” because a Confirmation Mass was scheduled to take place that day….
The area in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo where the explosion occurred has experienced attacks from the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), an ISIS affiliated rebel group from neighboring Uganda.
There were three bomb attacks in the city of Beni over the weekend, according to AFP.
After the explosion at the Catholic church, a suicide bombing occurred outside of a bar. Another bomb exploded at a gas station on the outskirts of the city on June 26.
Last month, Bishop Melchisedec Sikuli Paluku of Butembo-Beni denounced the human rights violations and terror attacks that targeted Christians in his diocese.
Bishop Paluku said that the number of terror attacks seemed “particularly high in the northern part of our diocese.”
“Armed groups are destroying schools and hospitals. Teachers and pupils are being killed. They are even killing the sick as they lie in their hospital beds. Not a day goes by without people being killed,” the bishop said in a report published by Aid to the Church in Need in May….
The bishop said that “a large-scale project is underway to Islamize or expel the indigenous populations.”
“Anyone who has been kidnapped by these terrorist groups and managed to escape from them alive has told the same story. They were given the choice between death and converting to Islam,” he said….
Kashyap says
Muslims are indulging in their hobbies.
mortimer says
No … JIHAD is not a mere ‘hobby’. Jihad is REQUIRED FOR ISLAMIC SALVATION and is called an ‘ESSENTIAL DOCTRINE’ (usul ud deen).

Mortimer, this is a bit of dark humor on Kashyap’s part. He knows that Jihad is central to Islam.

So peacefull…
mortimer says
Key words: POPE FRANCIS said that a proper reading of the Qur’an reject every form of violence.
But the Grand Imam of Al Azhar did not say it. He knows that is false.
The Grand Imam el-Tayeb is the real authority on jihadic violence.
Walter Sieruk says
As for those Muslims who planted inside a Roman Catholic Church and terrible wounded to Catholics that is a vicious and evil as well as obviously done with murderous intent .
To just think about that action of malicious violence had been committed by Muslim who were following the Qu ‘ran’s instructions of how to behave towards people who aren’t Muslims.2:191. 4:48. 9:123. 47:4.
Islam which is based in the Qu ‘ran is the religion that Pope Francis praises as being “a very good non-violent religion” What a falsehood speaking liar Pope Francis had proven himself to be.
Francis should then travel to that specfic place at the Congo and then to see those two Catholics who have been seriously wounded by the jihad bomb and tell them what ” a wonderful non-violent religion ” Islam is
