Pope Leo, head of Catholicism worldwide, has handed over to Muslims a "prayer room" in the Vatican, the heart of the church.
It is in a report at the Independent Sentinel that explains the confirmation came from a "casual remark," not a formal statement or press release as the Vatican often uses.
It was during an interview with La Repubblica just days ago that Giascomo Cardinali, vice-prefect of the Apostolic Library, confirmed, "Of course, some Muslim scholars have asked us for a room with a carpet to pray, and we have given it to them."
Despite the wide-ranging tolerance and cooperative agendas in the contemporary world, Islam and Christianity are fundamentally exclusive.
Islam denies the divinity of Christ, on which the salvation message in Christian churches globally for millennia has been founded.
The teachings also are directly in opposition, with the Christian message of love and compassion throughout the Bible conflicting with the Quran's instructions to "behead" non=Muslims.
The report said, "Pope Leo supports the invasion of millions of Islamists into Western countries although their values and culture are at great variance from that of the West. Now, he is arranging for a prayer room in the Vatican for them. However, we are still waiting for Vatican City to take in migratory Islamists to live."
The pope certainly has gone political in his so-far brief tenure, repeatedly criticizing America's agenda to secure its borders and control the number of migrants entering its boarders.
The report continued, "The priest's calm acknowledgment has since prompted a wave of critical commentary — not only because of what was offered, but because of where it was offered. They put the prayer room in the Vatican Apostolic Library. Some think this is admirable. Others say it's confusion of mission and identity."
The report continued, "It wouldn't bother me if the gesture was reciprocated. It's not. Churches in Europe are being transformed into mosques. Islamists are silencing and killing Christians throughout the world."
