What an idiot. What a dhemi(second class citizen, non believer) in Muslim world.

I think we should all start using the Jewish name for God just to annoy the muslims LOL.

@Silverchild79,
That bishop was just brave to admit the truth. Allah is the personal name of God that Jesus (peace be upon him) used to call when he prayed. Jesus spoke Aramaic (not Arabic).

"Oh God" = "YA ALAAH" (in aramaic: the mother tongue language of Jesus).

ALAAHAA (in aramaic) = God

Check for yourself in this Christian Aramaic website Christianity and Aramaic/Neo-Aramaic Church

Also, The original name in the Bible for GOD is not "Yahweh". It is "Allah". See the proofs from Jewish and Christian sources The original name for GOD is not "Yahweh".* It is "Allah"

In fact, Arabic speaking Jews in Morroco and Arabic speaking Christians use the word Allah when refering to God.

Scholars are unanimous in that Jesus spoke the language of Aramaic (not Arabic). What is the word for God in Aramaic? it is Alaah or Alaaha (depends on it poisition in the sentence). For anyone interested in proof please purchase the Lamsa Bible (translated from Aramaic) by George M
Lamsa.


Additional note:

Vatican's New Catechism declares Muslims to be saved

Link: Vatican's New Catechism declares Muslims and Jews to be saved!

841 The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."[330]

This paragraph essentially proclaims that "the plan of salvation" includes all faiths that acknowledge the true creator. The reasoning given is that since the Muslims claim the faith of Abraham, and worship the one true God, they are not only among the saved, but are at the top of any such list.

As a Catholic bishop, he doesn't have freedom of speech. He either tows the line, or finds another job.:thumbdown:

People in certain positions, such as himself know that they are responsible for the actions and things they say, it comes with the territory of having a position of such respect, and high profile.

As a RC Bishop he shouldn't he be taken as speaking for the Church? Isn't that what a person in his position is supposed to do? Shame on him for not representing his faith correctly. But, he's allowed to also have a personal opinion?

Personally, I don't care what people name they use for their personal God, I have my name for him and that should be all that matters to any of us. Just don't force me to call him a name that I'm not comfortable with.

Right. As a Catholic, he can't say things like that. As a bishop, he's scandalizing the flock. He's going to get smashed by the Vatican, too.:headbang:

Jews used to call him "Ell" before Moses, then Yahweh, Christians just say "god" now and Muslims say Allah

I like "God", cause it's universal. "Yahweh" sounds like redneck draw and "Allah" sounds like somebody trying to speak while yawming. Names are a human invention at any rate

Don't forget Eloheim or Jehovah. Personally I'm more comfortable with Heavenly Father.
