Interfaith Prayer: Apostasy in Action
The cited article from Vatican News reports an interreligious prayer meeting in Lahore, Pakistan, where Christian and Muslim leaders gathered at the Badshahi Mosque during Lent and Ramadan to pray for peace amid the Afghanistan-Pakistan conflict. Fr. Asif Sardar, Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Lahore, and Fr. James Channan, a Dominican, participated alongside Muslim imams, sharing an iftar and promoting “shared values” of fasting and prayer. The event is framed as a sign of “interreligious harmony” and a bridge of unity, with calls for joint advocacy for peace and an end to violence. This analysis exposes the profound theological and spiritual errors inherent in such an initiative, which stands in direct contradiction to the integral Catholic faith as defined before the rupture of 1958.
