This kind of ultimatum is not widely regarded as a contravention of Qur’an 2:256, “There is no compulsion in religion,” as the person who is forcibly converted could have chosen death instead. Also, in the case of Jacques Mourad, since they didn’t cut off his head, it may simply have been an attempt to “strike […]
Pope Gets Angry Over the Burning of a Book That Calls Christians ‘Vile’
New in PJ Media: Pope Francis is “indignant and disgusted,” according to a Sunday news report, but not over what you might expect. The pontiff is not enraged over the industrial-scale clerical sex abuse that has plagued the Church, or about the escalating persecution of Christians worldwide, or about the wholesale abandonment of Christianity in […]
Pope Francis says he feels ‘indignant and disgusted’ over Qur’an-burning in Sweden
When has Pope Francis ever said he was “indignant and disgusted” over Islamic jihad violence? Why, never. He has never acknowledged that Islamic jihad violence even exists, and instead has insisted counterfactually that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Qur’an reject every form of violence.” “Pope Francis decries the burning of the Quran […]
Head of Saudi center for interreligious dialogue visits with dialogue top dogs at the Vatican
Why do so few Christians in the West speak out about the rampant persecution of Christians in the Islamic world? Because they don’t want to harm the “dialogue.” Yet this “dialogue” has not saved one single Christian from being murdered.

You Knew This Was Coming: NYC Catholic Church Hosts ‘God Is Trans’ Exhibit
New in PJ Media: Well, this was inevitable. It was only a matter of time before Leftist Christians, marinating in the relentless insanity of their pet causes, would fashion gods in their own image: trans, queer, woke, and whatever else the Left is idolizing. The Church of St. Paul the Apostle, a Roman Catholic parish […]
France: In some Catholic schools, the student body is nearly 100% Muslim
What will France be like in the future? It will be an Islamic republic. Who has done this? The non-Muslim leaders of France. “Secularism: when the Catholic private school walks on eggshells with Muslim students,” translated from “Laïcité : quand l’école privée catho marche sur des œufs avec les élèves musulmans,” by Marie-Estelle Pech, Marianne, […]
Pope says of Christianity and Islam that ‘our common commitment is to a good life’
All right, but the definition of “a good life” differs sharply in both religions. The pope would stoutly deny this and call anyone who pointed it out “Islamophobic,” but nonetheless, it is the case. Qur’an 98:4-6: “Nor were the people of the book divided until after the clear proof came to them. And they are […]
Georgetown, the oldest Catholic university in the U.S., opens a large mosque on campus
Georgetown University already has the Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, which pumps out “Islamophobia” propaganda by the bucketload, gives Sharia supremacist and pro-slavery and rape apologist Jonathan A. C. Brown and hate-filled gutter thug Nathan Lean an aura of respectability, and sponsors the Bridge Initiative, which endeavors to hoodwink Catholic institutions into thinking […]

CONFIRMED: The FBI Has Spies in Catholic Churches to Hunt for ‘Domestic Terrorism’
New in PJ Media: A few weeks ago, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) asked Gestapo chief Merrick Garland, “Are you cultivating sources and spies in Latin Mass parishes and other Catholic parishes around the country?” Garland pleaded innocent, insisting, “No, the Justice Department does not do that and does not, uh, um, do investigations based on religion.” But […]
