Pope frank Makes History; Papa Francesco fa storia

If “baby killing” and infanticide weren’t enough this week, for the first time in Roman Catholic history, pope francis allowed the reading of Islamic prayers and Koran readings from the Catholic building.

Pope Francis met with Israeli President Shimon Peres and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Vatican City, a gathering designed to pray for Middle Eastern peace.

A Vatican official said the prayers were supposed to be a “pause in politics,”.

The pope said he hoped the interfaith prayers would foster peace specifically between Israelis and Palestinians.
