Liturgical Regulations Prevent Qur'an Reading at a Catholic Mass in North Carolina...

These Last Days News - June 13, 2011

"The battle, My child, will accelerate very shortly for there will not only be a great war of weapons of mankind, but it will be known soon throughout the world as a religious war." - Our Lady of the Roses August 21, 1974

Jihad Watch reported on June 11, 2011:

Several disasters were averted here. For Catholics, the instruction in Redemptionis Sacramentum, quoted below, prevented a serious liturgical abuse. Then, there are all the reasons that Mark Durie ably described that Islamic prayers, and also spectacles such as this, are distasteful in any Christian house of worship.

Thankfully, these rules also prevented the pulpit from being used to mislead and intimidate parishioners by conflating a highly politicized exercise in combating "Islamophobia" with established Church teachings.

Glossing over the truth to keep the peace at any cost is not exactly an act of charity; indeed, several of the Church's Spiritual Works of Mercy involve potentially telling people things they do not want to hear ("admonish sinners," "instruct the ignorant," "counsel the doubtful"). And while the Catechism of the Catholic Church notes beliefs Islam holds in common with Christianity (841), that in no way rules out the right to acknowledge the many things it does not, or that Islamic teachings have been a source of great suffering and persecution for Christians and other non-Muslims, even to this very day.

The Catechism's acknowledgement of a few overlapping tenets must be taken in the context of what comes immediately after it: a discussion of the imperative to evangelize (848-49), which Sharia absolutely forbids. Would the faithful have heard that at the planned Qur'an reading? Would they have heard the full range of what the Qur'an has to say about Christians, Jews, and non-Muslims in general?

Since the whole purpose of this exercise was to make a congregation a captive audience to indoctrination about "Islamophobia," that is most unlikely. Here, the "common ground" angle would have been used in its worst way: to imply that the existence of "common ground" rules out any rational concerns about differences. And the implication would have gone further here, giving the impression that anyone who dissented was a bad Catholic for doing so.

"Jesuit parish cancels Qur’an reading," from Catholic Culture, June 10:

A Jesuit parish in Charlotte has canceled plans to read the Qur’an from the pulpit on June 26, the feast of Corpus Christi.

“Just having something public is not going to be a big, big deal here, but to have someone come in and read from the Qur’an and to recognize publicly the existence of Islam and to reverence and respect is a good thing for the Church to do,” Father Patrick Earl, SJ, said on May 27. “I’ve heard from Muslim imams about what they and their congregations have suffered just from the fear, the fear of what they call Islamophobia.”

On June 7, Father Earl announced the cancellation of the event; he said that he had been unaware that 2004 Vatican instruction Redemptionis Sacramentum forbade such readings. The document states that “it is strictly to be considered an abuse to introduce into the celebration of Holy Mass elements that are contrary to the prescriptions of the liturgical books and taken from the rites of other religions.”

"All who continue in the battle ahead must accept martyrdom. it does not, My child, necessarily mean death of your body, but it will mean persecution. Stand fast in the faith. Keep the faith in the hearts of those you love. Extend your charity of heart to all of your brother and sisters throughout the world. Pray a constant vigilance of prayer." - Our Lady of the Roses, October 2, 1974

The awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/default.htm
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995:

WASHED CLEAN
"The saints and those who were washed clean by the blood of martyrdom, they join all in Heaven crying for vengeance against deceitful mankind and the abominations that offend the Eternal Father--abominations in the House of God!" - St. Michael, September 13, 1974

IN THE FEW
"Many martyrs, My child, shall come in the days ahead, and defenders of the Faith. Carry your crosses, My children, for those who will be saved shall be in the few." - Jesus, November 20, 1975

IMMEDIATE ENTRANCE
"My children, are there so few who will suffer for the Faith? Are My children lost to the need for suffering and martyrdom for the Faith? Do you not understand, My children, that martyrdom means immediate entrance into Heaven. Is this not worth fighting for?" - Our Lady, November 20, 1978

MANY GREAT SAINTS SHALL RISE
"Awaken now from your slumber and seek your return from your course of destruction by getting down upon your knees and praying in heartfelt, sincere prayer to the Eternal Father, to guide you back from your present road of destruction.
     "Your countrymen have sought to silence the voice of My Mother throughout your world. You will not continue to silence the voice-boxes throughout the world, for you are sowing the seeds of your own destruction!
     "Amen, amen, I say to you: unless mankind returns God the Eternal Father to his life, he will not have the years of two hands to count upon!
     "The present generation, My child, shall pass through this crucible of suffering. Many great saints shall rise from this persecution.” – Jesus, June 5, 1975

    Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers promises to help protect our children. On September 13, 1977, She said, "He has an army of ogres wandering now throughout your country and all of the countries of the world. They are in possession of great power; so wear your sacramentals, and protect your children and your households. Learn the use every day of holy water throughout your household. Insist even with obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day they will understand that they will repel the demons."
    On February 1, 1974, Our Lady said, "My children, know the value of these sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the knowledge that you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard your children's souls. They must be surrounded with an aura of purity. Remove them if necessary from the sources of contamination, be it your schools or even false pastors."
