Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Vatican steps up its alliance with Islamic org accused of providing ‘material support’ to al-Qaeda’s 9/11 operation

Dec 3, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 25 Comments

When there are moderates to be found, they have to be invented, so as to shore up the illusory and self-defeating “dialogue” that has not saved a single Christian from Muslim persecution (or any persecution). “Vatican Woos Funder of Islamic Terrorism,” by Jules Gomes, ChurchMilitant.com, November 27, 2020: JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia (ChurchMilitant.com) – The Vatican is […]

Christianity Today features Muslim speaker who complains about ‘Islamophobia’ and Trump’s ‘Muslim ban’

Nov 27, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

This is unfortunate, but not in the least surprising. “Islamophobia” is a smear propaganda neologism designed to intimidate people into thinking that it is wrong to oppose jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others. There is no “Islamophobia network.” There is, however, a concerted effort by several Leftist and Islamic organizations to group […]

Pope Condemns Death Penalty While Praising Pro-Death Penalty Imam

Oct 9, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 51 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: In his new encyclical Fratelli Tutti, the Woke Pope casts aside 2,000 years of unbroken tradition and declares: “Today we state clearly that ‘the death penalty is inadmissible’ and the Church is firmly committed to calling for its abolition worldwide.” That’s just great, but there’s one little catch. In the […]

Pope’s new encyclical praises imam who supports wife-beating and death penalty for apostates

Oct 7, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 47 Comments

This is what interfaith dialogue leads to, at least for the Christian side: total capitulation, the relativization of the faith, and the holding of contradictory ideas. The fruit of the dialogue between Muslims and Catholics has not been the protection of Christians in Muslim countries, but a silence from the Catholic Church on this persecution. […]

Italy: Top Muslim leader says Judaism and Christianity are ‘manipulation of original messages of prophets’

Sep 27, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 41 Comments

Yassine Baradai is simply enunciating standard Islamic theology, which holds that all the Biblical prophets were Muslims (cf. Qur’an 3:67, which says it about Abraham), and that their wayward followers then twisted and hijacked their teachings to create Judaism and Christianity. But the Pope and the Italian Catholic bishops either don’t know this or are […]

Pope’s New Encyclical to Praise Jihad Terror Supporter as Example of ‘Peace’ and ‘Fraternity’

Sep 7, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 52 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: Pope Francis’ new encyclical, Fratelli tutti: sulla fraternità e l’amicizia sociale (“All Brothers: On Fraternity and Social Friendship”) will be issued on October 3, the Vatican confirmed Saturday. According to Church Militant, the encyclical is “a sequel to his controversial Abu Dhabi pact with Grand Imam Ahmad al-Tayyeb last year, […]

Vatican ambassador to Nigeria says it’s important to say that Muslim genocide of Christians there is not religious

Sep 1, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

For the Catholic Church today, it’s the Muslim-Christian dialogue above all things. Unwelcome truths are not be enunciated. Here is the reality of the situation in Nigeria: the article “A genocide against Christians is silently unfolding in Nigeria,” by Kester Kenn Klomegah in Modern Diplomacy, August 28, 2020, states this: The International Society for Civil […]

Pope Francis to double down on his false statements on Islam, issue encyclical based on Abu Dhabi declaration

Aug 30, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

Pope Francis has made the risible claim that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.” Although this is not and could not ever be a dogma of the Roman Catholic Church, it is assumed to be some kind of superdogma by the Catholic hierarchy worldwide, superseding […]

Turkey’s appropriation of Chora church after Hagia Sophia shows Pope’s human fraternity document a massive failure

Aug 24, 2020 3:30 pm By Robert Spencer

Here is the full statement I sent to Church Militant: The “Document on Human Fraternity” that Pope Francis signed with the Sheikh of al-Azhar, Ahmed al-Tayeb, and is now aggressively pushing upon the Catholic Church, states that “the protection of places of worship – synagogues, churches and mosques – is a duty guaranteed by religions, […]

Pope and Muslim envoy push interfaith Abrahamic Family House

Aug 21, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This is based on false assumptions and mistaken beliefs that could be quite damaging for the Christian side, as I explain below. But no dissent from the Pope’s ridiculous solicitude for Islamic supremacists and Sharia absolutists is allowed within the Catholic Church. “Pope, Muslim Envoy Push Interfaith Shrine,” by Jules Gomes, ChurchMilitant.com, August 18, 2020: […]

A Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Bishop Walked into a Mosque…

Aug 12, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

To be precise, it was Ireland’s Croke Park Stadium, not a proper mosque, but what happened there was no joke. ChurchMilitant.com reported that on Friday, July 31, Ireland’s top Catholic prelate, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, “joined Muslims in celebrating a key Islamic festival which falsifies the Bible by declaring that the patriarch Abraham took Ishmael, not Isaac, to be sacrificed […]

Ireland: Leftists assault Catholics protesting archbishop’s participation in Muslim prayers for Eid al-Adha

Aug 6, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

In this event we see yet again the Catholic hierarchy’s endless solicitude for Muslims and Islam, and its disdain for actual Catholics. What is unusual in this case is that some Catholics stood up against this exercise in a self-defeating and pointless dialogue that has never saved one single Christian from Muslim persecution, or prevented […]

Ireland: Catholic bishop joins Muslims for Eid al-Adha, inadvertently reinforces idea that Bible has been corrupted

Aug 1, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

When Diarmuid Martin thinks of Abraham, he probably thinking of Genesis 22:15-18, in which Abraham is rewarded for his faith and told he will become a blessing to the nations: “by your descendants shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves, because you have obeyed my voice.” But his Muslim friends don’t read Genesis.

Vatican top dog: Conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque “should not be put down to current Islamic aggression”

Jul 18, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

In reality, that’s exactly what it should be put down to. But Körner no doubt feels compelled to try to preserve Pope Francis’ fiction that “current Islamic aggression” has anything to do with the teachings of Islam itself. Accordingly, he has to ignore Erdogan’s explicit grounding of the conversion of Hagia Sophia in Islamic terms. […]

Pope Says He’s ‘Very Saddened’ Over Hagia Sophia – But Why?

Jul 14, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: On Sunday, Pope Francis broke his silence regarding the decision by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to convert Hagia Sophia, the foremost cathedral in the Christian world for nearly a thousand years, to a mosque. If you blinked, however, you might have missed it. “I think of Hagia Sophia,” the […]

Pope Francis: “I think of Hagia Sophia and I am very saddened”

Jul 12, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

As I stated to Church Militant, the Pope’s tardy statement manifests a studied ambiguity. What exactly is he saddened about? He doesn’t say. Is he saddened because what was the foremost church in the Christian world for nearly a millennium, and the center of Eastern Christianity, has been made a mosque? Or is he saddened […]

After Demonizing All Who Opposed Jihad Terror, Catholic Mag Wonders Why No One Speaks Out Against It

Jul 9, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: Last Thursday, the Jesuit periodical America sounded a dark note: “Are Nigeria’s Christians the target of a genocide? That is the conclusion of a number of religious freedom analysts and Nigerian clergy.” Yet the venerable Leftist Catholic magazine’s warning was veritably dripping with irony, for the same publication has for […]

Turkey’s move to convert Hagia Sophia to a mosque shows worthlessness of Pope/Grand Imam joint declaration

Jun 15, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

If the utter worthlessness of the “Human Fraternity Declaration” weren’t already clear, this makes it obvious to everyone except the most indefatigably willfully ignorant. “Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14) “Turkey Moves to Reclaim Basilica as Mosque,” by […]

Charles De Foucauld, Who Took Islam’s Measure, To Be Canonized (Part 2)

Jun 8, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

Charles de Foucauld, a Catholic priest who is about to be canonized by the Vatican, spent much of his adult life living alone among Muslims, first among Arabs in Morocco, and then among Tuaregs in Algeria. He wished for, but did not himself attempt, the conversion of Muslims. He instead saw his mission as one […]
