    Is the Pope....Pagan?

    The Pope heads to the Middle East to a prayer service attempting to bring together the "sons and daughters of Abraham".  Even among the three most well-known groups - Judaism, Islam, and Christianity - there are many important differences between them.  Is unity possible, given such deep convictional differences?  How should we approach discussions with those of similar, yet different, faiths in discussion and relationship? https://notthebee.com/article/pope-francis-is-going-to-straight-up-pray-at-an-ancient-pagan-templehttps://www.reuters.com/article/us-pope-iraq-ur-preparations/popes-visit-to-iraqi-ziggurat-to-bring-together-several-faiths-and-hopefully-lure-more-visitors-idUSKBN2AM0YN Connect with us here - https://www.facebook.com/APTpodcastWatch us here - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5GZRABKbaOr359j0bIT_jgPartner with us here - https://www.patreon.com/aptcast ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
