Catholic bishops just keep bringing the stupidity

July 10, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

JihadWatch:

…we have bishops like Robert McManus of Worcester, Massachusetts and now Jaime Soto of Sacramento, California, both of whom canceled me from speaking because I speak honestly about [Muslim] persecution [of Christians] and what causes it.

Ironically, Soto canceled me just as the National Catholic Register was calling me “perhaps the foremost Catholic expert on Islam in our country.” This also illustrates the divide. To some people I am a racist, Islamophobic villain; to others, an honest exponent of the truth about Islam and jihad. To some Catholics I am unacceptable to speak on these issues; to others I am the foremost expert on them in the country.

I do not know how this divide can or will be bridged…

NOTE:

Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller are scheduled to speak in Toronto on September 17.

Details to follow.
