Francis went to Egypt expecting to find martyrdom, and evil men who needed to be converted to Christians in order to be saved from hell-fire. But he left respectful of Muslims to the point that he encouraged Christians to emulate them in prayer and prostration, and to join Muslms -- and others -- in service to all despite their different religions, and he specifically told his followers not to try and convert them.

Having seen Muslim prayers while in Egypt he declared for his followers: "You should manifest such honour to the Lord among the people entrusted to you that every evening an announcement be made by a town crier or some other signal that praise and thanks may be given by all people to the all-powerful Lord God."

Are you going to post that on Facebook, too?

I find it amazing how much plagiarism goes on concerning recent articles on Islamic history.

It's true.
I followed a search on the terms, mazHur Butt terrorist and came upon your facebook account where you posted an article recently (today or yesterday) about early Saudi history and the British.
You did acknowledge the author, who also has an account at facebook......but paragraphs of it could be found in many other articles with out anyone giving credit, implying they originated the work. Well, that's a lot of plagiarism and it questions the research of those articles .

“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love,
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved, as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.”

“And St. Francis added: "My dear and beloved Brother, the treasure of blessed poverty is so very precious and divine that we are not worthy to possess it in our vile bodies. For poverty is that heavenly virtue by which all earthy and transitory things are trodden under foot, and by which every obstacle is removed from the soul so that it may freely enter into union with the eternal Lord God. It is also the virtue which makes the soul, while still here on earth, converse with the angels in Heaven. It is she who accompanied Christ on the Cross, was buried with Christ in the Tomb, and with Christ was raised and ascended into Heaven, for even in this life she gives to souls who love her the ability to fly to Heaven, and she alone guards the armor of true humility and charity.”

Your comment was totally off topic and you should be ashamed of it by covering it up under the word 'casual'....
Evidently you have proved yourself a bad person, of bad heritage and bad upbringing.
Obviously this thread is about Assisi ..can't you understand that??

Nope....I did not.....go back and reread my comment. Or would you rather see it repeated again and again?

Let's do it any way

But the question remains.

What is the point of this thread beyond it being a copy and paste exercise?

What is it you want to show us?


It's for you to comment on Saint Assisi's endeavors to bring peace to the world and how far he had been successful.
I think he was a great Saint equally respected by both Christians and Muslims alike...
If don't respect him ...you may not be a Catholic..but I do revere him and hold him and his conduct in high esteem.
I am not sure whether he got converted to Islam...but some say that and some not..in any case he was a great pacifist....
I you have any comment to make on his life or work , do or just leave the board alone for others to come and comment.

Certainly no one likes your dishonest character and bias against others and perhaps no one even likes to see you here.

On July 16, 1228, he was proclaimed a saint by Pope Gregory IX. He is known as the patron saint of animals, theenvironment, and is one of the two patron saints of Italy (withCatherine of Siena). It is customary for Catholic and Anglican churches to hold ceremonies blessing animals on his feast day of October 4.[7] He is also known for his love of the Eucharist,[8] his sorrow during the Stations of the Cross, and for the creation of the Christmas creche or Nativity Scene.[9]

Shame on those who employed a big black burly dog to ass fuck a wretched white woman....!!May curse of Assisi fall on them!!
