And they agreed to be “’pro-active against similar terrorist acts’ by imparting the true teachings of their respective religious traditions and sacred scriptures—the Qur’an and the Bible—to their followers.” That’s swell, but where have Biblical teachings been used to justify any terror act similar to the bombing of the Catholic mass in Marawi?
