Catholics protest over plan to turn hospital chapel into Muslim prayer room

[Eddie_Mac]

Hey, if Muslims want to adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, power to them, but the chapel should not be made into a Muslim prayer room.

That is wrong in so many ways.

They claim to pray to the same God we do, let them do it. If they object to the presence of the Blessed Sacrament it proves to me that they do not worship our God.

Please read the link I posted to the official hospital website. It is not happening. There are no plans to convert the chapel. It is a non issue

From what I can see it’s not a Catholic religious hospital. It is a Catholic chapel in a general hospital.

In any event, it’s a moot point. there are no plans to convert it:

Tempest in a teapot.

And yes, a general hospital must do its best to accommodate all faiths.
