Cool Islam plans to topple the Papacy

After browsing through the web for Islamic/Christian debates, I came upon an article that I think every Catholic should read:

http://www.joelstrumpet.com/?p=1191#more-1191

I'm not trying to anger anyone, nor trying to cause hatred torward
Muslims, but I just thought that my RC bretheren should at least take a gander at this.

Any thoughts?

Pax.

Call me paranoid, but I've been afraid that something like this would happen. Ever since 9/11 I've been seeing everything differently. Some will talk about apostate religion. What is Islam if not that?

That's a wonderful story. We all need to pray every day for the conversion of the Muslims.

God bless,
Paul

They've already tried that before (and made a bit of loot) but ultimately couldn't take it and the Pope at the time built a wall to prevent a repeat attack by the Muslims (who owned Sicily and some of the rest of Southern Italy at the time

Muslims have been saying that for 1400 years already. Mohammadens coveted the riches of Rome 1400 years ago... yet they could never conquer it. Yet, after 1400 years, Mohammad's prophecies still have not come true, and never will.

Some here in the U.S.A. could say the same about the Catholics.

I don't mean to be funny here; but some guy somewhere in the Muslim world (as if anyone here had even heard of Yunis Al-Astal until now) saying Rome will soon be conquered by the Muslims is hardly substantial evidence of an collective Muslim plot to topple the Papacy.

Default Re: Islam plans to topple the Papacy

the dream of Nebuchadnezzar revealed.

"As you looked, a stone was cut out but by no human hand and it smote the image on its feet of iron and clay and broke them in pieces. Then the iron and the clay, the silver and the bronze and the gold all together were broken into pieces and became like the chaff on the summer threshing-floors and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them could be found."
This little stone fell upon the fourth empire, the Roman empire symbolized by the iron legs, broke the feet, shattered the legs and the whole image crumbled and blew away. A little small stone; but the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
"In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall its sovereignty be left to another people. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it shall stand forever."
