His Holiness plays hide and seek with muslims.
It is acknowledged
that the present Pope is a master psychlogist, the shrewdest, the
most popular and the most diplomatic of all Popes in Christendom.
He makes everyone
happy. On every foreign soil he lands, he kisses the ground - he
makes SOOJOOD, the prostration (the climax in the Muslim prayer)
- only a step away from the KALIMA, the creed (the Muslim
declaration of Faith). This makes the muslim very happy too.
His prostrations make
the Hindu, the Christian and the agnostic also very happy. Why?
Because the Pope is blessing his land!
MASTER AT THE GAME
The Christian is past Master at the
Game. He is a master psychologist. He invents banner headlines
like these -
"£17 000 000
ERMARKED FOR PROPAGATION OF ISLAM IN AFRICA"
in the Fifties.
"IN AFRICA FOR EVERY ONE CONVERT TO CHRISTIANITY,
7 TO ISLAM" in the Sixties.
"BLACK NATIONALISM,
COMMUNISM AND ISLAM THE DANGERS" in the
Seventies.
NOW!
"WE MUST HAVE A DIALOGUE WITH THE MUSLIMS" in
the Eighties.
"RAND DAILY NOVEMBER 30"
Whenever the Pope visited countries
where Muslims abound, he announced that he wished to have
DIALOGUE WITH MUSLIMS.
POPE'S "DIALOGUE" MEANT CONVERT
We knew full-well that the
Pope really did not mean a "dialogue". He was actually
telling his missionaries to go and "CONVERT" the
Muslims. But if he used the word "CONVERT", the Muslims
would react. Therefore his careful choice of the word -
"DIALOGUE".
To give His Holiness the benefit of
the doubt, we responded to his repeated pronouncements, accepted
his plea to have a "DIALOGUE" with Muslims and invited
him to AN OPEN DIALOGUE in St. Peters Square in Rome at a time
and date suitable to him as not to inconvenience His Holiness.
Hence our letter dated 1 Ramadan 1404 / 1 June 1984. (If you have
not received it yet, then please write for your copy.)
POPE'S BACK-PEDALLING AFTER BOLD PLEA FOR DIALOGU
After 3 more letters and a telegram
in August '84 the Vatican replied; proposing a meeting in their
Secretariate, that is, in private. On the 17th of September '84,
we responded to His Holiness -
"...We are obviously pleased
that you are prepared to meet with us, but we are concerned that
such meeting should be public, as was our open letter to you,
which is why we originally suggested St. Peters. The people
affected by any dialogue between Christianity and Islam number
well over 2 billion (i.e., number of belivers in both faiths),
and in fairness to them, and for the sake of truth and the
pleasure of God, we should avoid undue privacy.
"We are more than prepared to
meet with you in your secretariate as per your suggestion, but,
as we have many muslims from South Africa alone, viz. That three
aeroplanes are being chartered from Johannesburg, Durban and Cape
Town for this purpose, who wish to attend this meeting, we
respectfully request information on facilities at the
secertariate in terms of accommodating these people and the many
obvious thousands more who would want to attend. As many people
who desire to attend will not be able to do so, we also request
permission to video tape our meeting so that our discussions may
reach millions more who would otherwise be denied the benefit of
our dialogue."
POPE'S DEFENDING SILENCE AFTER BEING CAUGHT OUT
After over two months of waiting, we
despatched two telegrams on 29 November '84, one to the
Secretariate and one to the Pope. A month latter, on December
27th, two more telegrams were sent but to no avail. In one last
desperate bid we sent yet another telegram to the Pope (a
photostat of which appeared in ("Second thoughts from the
Pope" You may write for your free copy of a four-page
leaflet in 2 colours, if you have not received it.)
Knowing full-well that the Pope's
repeated pleas "Dialogue, Dialogue, Dialogue" was a big
bluff, we have now called his bluff and have proved conclusively
to the world the hoax that it was. The Pope has "given up
the ghost". We mourn his loss. But we will not fret over it.
We are now looking further West. From the land of Roman
Catholicism to Anglicanism where we will be more at home
linguistically.
ISLAM FOR EUROPE
Over half-a-century ago George
Bernard Shaw said:
» "If any religion has a
chance of conquering England, nay europe within the next
hundred years, that religion is Islam."
But alas, we have not made it yet!
INVASION IN REVERSE
We are contemplating an invasion of
England this July. It is an invasion in reverse. The British
ruled our countries - India, Egypt, Malayasia, etc., for over a
hundred years. Now, for the conquest of Britain for Islam. Not
with bombs and guns; but with love, compassion and logic. Let us
hope the Anglican Bishops and Arcbishops will prove more manly
than the pope.
We have booked the
ROYAL ALBERT HALL in London, United Kingdom, for the
7th of July. Birmingham
City Hall for the 14th, Manchester City Hall for the 21st and
Leicester for the 28th, and dozens of other venues in between.
See you there Insha-Allah! If you can't attend, don't despair.
Audio and Video tapes will be made available.
In the meantime, arm yourselves with
our FREE literature on Comperative religion. Don't wait for the
missionaries to make nests on your heads. With a little knowledge
you can defend your DEEN of Islam which has been a target of the
missionaries for hundreds of years. You can even win new
followers for Islam. According to Edward Said, Time magazine,
April 16, 1979, over 60 000 (sixty thousand) books have been
written against Islam by the Christian West. Allah's promise is
true! He has given us a "DEEN" - a Way of
life that is to master, overcome and supercede every other Way of
life - whether it be Hinduism, Buddism, Communism or Christianism
- or any other "ism".
"...even though the un-belivers
may detest (it)." (Holy Quran 9:33)

WE ARE WONDERING...
» whether the Vatican's
suggestion of a meeting in their Secretariate is
not a manouevre to play down the issue or, worse
still, to let it recede into the shadows
indefinitely.
» whether Christendom's
slow-to-grasp train of thoughts, reluctance to
accept the Truth, and feeling of threat to its
very existence which have prevailed from the
earliest days of the Church and as recorded by
History are still not continuing in the 20th
century.
» whether the Pope is not
having second thoughts about having dialogue with
Muslims.
