Neoconservatism killed the last Christians and burned their ancient

Chant to Remove Jesus at Washington’s National Cathedral

It looked like a chilling scene from a
Last Days, anti-Christ-takes-over-the-
Only this was not a movie. This was the
scene, last Friday, for the first time in history, at the iconic National
Cathedral in Washington, where orthodox Muslim clerics were invited to lead an
Islamic prayer service. A congregation of hundreds were lead by an Imam in
declaring that “god has no son, that Jesus
Christ cannot be his son, and that there is no god like
Allah.”
Only a single middle-age woman jumped up
in the middle of the service and shouted, “America was founded on Christian principles. . . . Leave
our church alone!” She was escorted quickly out of the church
by security guards.
The National Cathedral in Washington, DC
has been an extremely important symbol of the Christian roots of the United
States. The cathedral was designated by Congress as America's "National House of
Prayer." The church has hosted a number of inaugural presidential prayer
services, including Franklin Roosevelt and both presidents
Bush.
The Rev. Franklin Graham, son of
evangelist Billy Graham, took to Facebook in reaciton to the Muslim prayer
service:
“The National Cathedral in Washington,
DC–one of the most prominent Episcopal churches in America–will host a Muslim
prayer service to Allah. It’s sad to see a church open its doors to the worship
of anything other than the One True God of the Bible, who sent His Son, the Lord
Jesus Christ, to earth to save us from our sins. Jesus was clear when He said,
'I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
Me' (John 14:6)."
As of this writing, 80,000 people had
“liked” Graham’s post.
The Islamic service at the cathedral was
ostensibly intended to promote interfaith dialogue. Its organizers said that
they hoped the service would “help correct
some Americans’ misperceptions of Muslims as extremists and reinforce tolerance
among faiths.”
However, it is hard to understand how a
Christian church opening its sanctuary for Islamic prayers that renounce Jesus
Christ contributes to interfaith tolerance. Muslims would never allow a
Christian to preach the Gospel in a mosque. Palestinian Muslims continue to ban
all Jews and Christians from praying at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. It would
appear that “interfaith dialogue and tolerance” are just more code words calling
for Muslims to rise up and conquer.
The Washington Post reported that the Islamic prayer
service was closed to the public because of security concerns. Armed guards
checked every person and every bag of those in attendance.
Islam is growing rapidly around the
world, and is now the third-largest religion in the United States, behind
Christianity and Judaism, with an estimated 2.6 million American Muslim
citizens.
