Jakob Wirén is unaware of or indifferent to the fact, but he has entangled himself in a contradiction. The prophets of the Judeo-Christian tradition do not contradict one another. But the Qur’an in numerous passages contradicts and presents itself as purporting to correct Christian doctrine. Among those passages are these: Jesus is not the Son […]

Al-Azhar Grand Sheikh: Peace established in Islam as main principle for Muslims in dealing with the world
Pull my other leg, El-Tayyeb. Year after year after year, these deceivers say the same lies, which attests to their effectiveness. Most people will never open a Qur’an and read the passages El-Tayyeb is neglecting to mention, including these: “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, […]

Associated Press reported Saturday: “The Vatican said Iraqi Jews were invited to the event but did not attend, without providing further details.” Now we know the rest of the story.
