And why not? Islam could fill the gap in the diocese left by the departure of Christianity.
From here:
This event will seek to open up avenues of conversation. What do we know about Islam and Muslims? What do we appreciate? What do we fear? How do we understand current geo-political struggles, including terrorism? What is the capacity of Islam for pluralism, democracy, human rights and the secular?
It’s interesting that there don’t seem to be any events organised by Muslims to understand Christianity better; Muslims may not feel the need because they are more secure in their beliefs.
The organisers of this event suggest: If possible, bring something that can be shared. A severed head, perhaps.
Why not? Both are involved in demolishing churches!
So rather than spreading the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ (like sowers of the seed) they are instead introducing the few people left in their pews to the false religion of the false prophet.
“A severed head, perhaps.” Now you’ve really done it David. I have coffee all over my screen!
“bring something that can be shared”. Like the gospel?
Naw- no money in that- but how about a smudge ceremony instead? Then EVERYONE will think we are cool
I’m aware of 21 Coptic families who should be able help dispel the ignorance…
I have Islam all figured out. He wears the pyjamas and she wears the bed sheets. There. I could have saved them a lot of trouble.
