Will St. Margaret Mary become a casualty?
A retiring priest on Staten Island has sold the convent of his parish to an Islamic group. Pamela Geller says:
What man of the cloth with even so much as a cursory knowledge of how Christians have fared in Islamic countries would do such a thing — and with the oppressive, violent Brotherhood, no less? The express and stated goal of the Muslim Brotherhood is a universal caliphate, by any means necessary.
“The impending sale of an empty, 2 ½ -story convent in Midland Beach owned by St. Margaret Mary’s R.C. Church has neighbors angry and afraid because the purchaser is an Islamic organization they know little about.”
Neighbors should be worried. Very worried. The Muslim American Society was named a front for the Muslim Brotherhood in the Holy Land terror funding trial (along with CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, etc.) It was started by the Muslim Brotherhood.
Parishioners are fighting back.
Apparently i’s and t’s are not all dotted and crossed yet and the great Archbishop Dolan is giving this sale in his diocese a closer look. Catholic property being sold to Islam? Someone was grossly asleep at the switch.
Reminds me of the store on Main St in Bridgton ME that was once a Protestant Church. When they put the Church up for sale they stipulated that it NOT be sold to any Catholic organization. So it became a store, a store with stain glass windows. I imagine Jesus storming up and down the aisles tossing the merchandise.
