AP: Praying the Rosary is “Islamophobic”

October 9, 2017 10:27 am By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

This morning Christine Douglass-Williams brought you a report here at Jihad Watch on this Roman Catholic “Rosary to the Borders” event in Poland. Noteworthy also is how the Associated Press covered the event: “some felt,” the AP intoned, that the event “had anti-Muslim overtones.” Why? Because “the event also commemorated the huge 16th-century naval battle of Lepanto, when a Christian alliance acting on the wishes of the pope defeated Ottoman Empire forces on the Ionian Sea, ‘thus saving Europe from Islamization.’”

I guess the Pope, good Catholic he is, will have to call off the rosary business.

Is praying on a rug while facing Mecca five times daily "Christophobic"?

Thanks to our new curriculum for 6th graders, we are de-emphasizing Old Testament for New Testament. Quite a few of our students come from families returning to the church, so we're teaching them the rosary, as well as Catholic prayers in different languages. Last couple of weeks our opening prayer has been the Our Father in German.

I've told the RE office that I will continue to mix in Old Testament references, given the strong OT influence in our church: stained glass windows of prophets, transfiguration scene in the Nave, etc. Will also interject scenes from the life of St. Aloysius Gonzaga.

If that means I'm Islamaphobic, so be it.

So the AP engages in intolerant cultural imperialism by telling another nation and culture what is right and wrong. I thought that was bigotry.

Guess they already think we live in the globalist empire of their world government wet dreams.
